Reconfiguration of Flexible Distribution Networks

This is my second talk at the PowerTech 2023 Belgrade conference (https://powertech2023.com/). Using a realistic meshed distribution system from the UK, I demonstrate that network reconfiguration can increase the limits of aggregated flexibility and improve the economic efficiency of flexibility markets. The slides are based on our recent work "Impacts of Distribution Network Reconfiguration on Aggregated DER Flexibility".
