Abstract: | This case use describes an Integrated Volt-VAR Control (IVVC) system, which operates in a centralized environment as opposed to decentralized VVC implemented in distributed logic architecture. IVVC manages voltage along the entire distribution circuit, establishing a voltage profile that is optimized to reduce demand. The demand reduction results in a corresponding reduction of energy, primarily from reduced energy consumption, but also through improved system efficiency. The IVVC also optimizes power factor as a secondary objective.
