Effective integration of active distributed energy resources (DER) requires adapted new management system solutions for network operators. This paper focuses on the realization of advanced functions such as Voltage Profile Management and Power Flow Management on the feeder, while presenting some issues relative to the implementation of these functionalities: modelling, shared data, specifications of the calculation engine for steady-state network analysis. The topics are illustrated by referring to the solutions built within the Smart Grid demonstration project Nice Grid, as proofs of concept for smart leverage tools of active resources on the distribution network.
