In recent decades, a significant increase in the share of renewable energy sources in power grids at various voltage levels has been observed. A number of articles have been published highlighting emerging problems in low-voltage grids with a large share of prosumers and in medium- and high-voltage grids to which photovoltaic (PV) plants are connected. The article analyzes the medium-voltage grid in terms of the possibility of connecting maximum PV power to it, while maintaining the criterion of the proper voltage level in the whole grid. The selection of suitable locations for PV power plants is analyzed, as well as the expected effect of the possible modernization of the grid – replacement of the main line with lines having a larger cross-section. As a result of the analysis, the percentage profits from both presented solutions (PV power plants optimal locations and main power line modernization) have been compared.
