CoVee Control

Coordinated Voltage Control

The voltage control that we are implemented comes from the theory described in this paper: A Coordinated Voltage Control for Overvoltage Mitigation in LV Distribution Grids

Download the respository

please clone it with: git clone --recursive (to download the submodules) \ The submodule installed are "covee", "covee-powerflow" and "dmu", a tool for the implementation of REST or MQTT

Installation

to populate the containers with a virtual environment

• run in terminal: make all

There main containers are:

• covee: Run the voltage control
• covee-powerflow: Run the powerflow (simulation of the electrical grid)
• grafana (optional): For the visualization

Running covee and powerflow containers:

• There is a docker-compose.yml file, that is installing all the required components for each container.
• run in terminal: sudo docker-compose up

There is a python file to test external message to the voltage control (to control the number of active nodes):

• run in terminal: make ext
• This generate a virtual environment to run: PF_conf_inputs.py
• The code simply generate a json message that is posted via REST API

To remove the virtual environments:

• run in terminal: make clean
• run in terminal: make clean_ext
