System and method for determining a local conservative voltage reduction CVR factor

A computer-implemented method for determining a local conservative voltage reduction (CVR) factor using grid edge devices (GEDs), the computer-implemented method being implemented in a computer system comprising a non-transitory storage medium and one or more processors, the computer-implemented method comprising:

• receiving, from each of the GEDs, respective voltage change values and power change values;
• identifying, using the processor, voltage events within at least one control zone, each of the GEDs being associated with a zone of the at least one control zone, the voltage events being identified based at least in part on the GEDs in the zones meeting one or more event parameters;
• identifying a plurality of CVR values for each GED, each CVR value being based at least in part on one of the respective voltage change values and one of the power change values associated with each identified voltage event;
• generating, using the processor and based at least in part on the plurality of CVR values, a local CVR factor for each GED, wherein generating the local CVR factor further comprises:
• collecting a list of historical CVR values within a window;
• determining moving median CVR factors for the CVR values within the list until a threshold number of determined moving median CVR factors reaches a moving average size;
• and
• determining the local CVR factor as an average of the moving median CVR factors;
• and
• controlling one or more devices based at least in part on the local CVR factor.
