Voltage control is one of the imperative issues in the smart distribution control system. While traditional distribution network is equipped with communication and monitoring equipment, the online voltage control can be perfectly achieved. With using these smart grid technologies, the distribution voltage control schemes should carry out intelligently and cover the undesirable effect of high penetration of renewable distributed generation. This paper presents a new approach that improved the conventional voltage control models. The proposed approach needs measuring and communication equipment less than other methods, and can cover the renewable distributed generation impact on distribution network. The proposed online voltage control model was tested on typical distribution network. The results show that the proposed model can stabilize voltage in predefined range in different consumer load fluctuation conditions and variable renewable generation levels.
