Power Quality Regulation-Import Point in Improving Electricity Distribution Efficiency

One of the aims in electricity sector reform across countries within the South East Europe (SEE) region is to improve the efficiency of the natural monopoly activities of electricity distribution and transmission. Improvement of voltage quality requires optimization of distribution network control and simultaneously with these activities it is possible to reduce technical losses and thus improve electricity distribution efficiency. This paper describes corrective measures which can return significant technical losses reductions. This paper therefore represents a contribution in the research of technical-economic indicators for determination of quality of services taking into consideration the experience from other countries and analyzes requests in optimization of distribution network control and role of a Distribution System Operator (DSO), too
