Abstract

This paper proposes a new methodology for managing distributed generations (DGs) investment proposals submitted by DG investors to local distribution companies (LDCs). The work presented in this paper assumes that governmental incentives are no longer available, as is the case in Ontario, and therefore LDCs would determine the appropriate incentives for DG investors. The proposed approach has two main stages to be implemented. An optimization model is presented in stage one to define the accepted and rejected DG capacities to fulfill the operational system constraints. Economic analyses are carried out in stage two for the accepted DG capacities in order to determine the optimal incentive prices in which the profitability of DG investments is guaranteed.
