The results show that incorporating distributed solar PV leads to total system cost reduction in all scenarios (1.4% for power sector, 1.9–3.7% for sector-coupled). The achieved cost reductions primarily stem from demand peak reduction and lower distribution capacity requirements because of self-consumption from distributed solar.
Distributed or rooftop solar PV, is situated within the distribution network on rooftops, parking lots, or nearby consumers, while centralized or utility PV plants are connected to transmission network and located in regions where solar potential and interconnection capacity are high.
