Algorithm to estimate hosting capacity in a radial medium-voltage-grid

Increasing electrification and rising levels of distributed generation require quick insights into the grid situation. Here, an approach is proposed to estimate hosting capacity for a mainly radial medium voltage (MV) grid. This estimation has two components, firstly a tracing part starting at all relevant parts of the grid. Secondly, the actual estimation is based on grid impedance and current margin. Verification shows acceptable deviations for an estimation.
