Technical SWOT analysis of decentralised production for low voltage grids in Flanders

The increasing energy prices, combined with high funding by the government, has resulted in a massive integration of decentralised electrical energy production units in Belgium. These systems are mainly PhotoVoltaic systems and the sudden increase of both number and power ratio of the DG systems has put additional stress on the distribution network. In this paper a technical SWOT analysis is presented. The researchers believe that the solution to decompress the stress can result in additional benefits for both, end user and distribution network operators.
