This thesis addresses the impacts of reverse power flow due to high penetration in the electrical distribution network; A detailed analysis is conducted to assess how RPF affects voltage profiles and transformer losses. . The rapid adoption of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems has transformed the energy landscape, enabling businesses and homeowners to generate their own electricity and even feed excess power back to the grid. When the reverse power flow increases, the problem of line overvoltage also worsens, which endangers the normal operation of power. . The increasing penetration of renewable energy systems (RES), particularly distributed generation (DG) such as solar photovoltaic (PV), has transformed modern power distribution networks. While this technology offers environmental and economic benefits, it also introduces significant technical. . Analysis of the causes of solar power generati r flow is one of the consequences of high PV penetration. However,the authors of investigated this phenomenon from a different angle,i. Most of the distribution system. . One of the primary concerns with this grid-connected PV system is overloading due to reverse power flow, which degrades the life of distribution transformers.
