Abstract
This paper proposes a multistage distribution network planning (DNP) method that considers multiple planning alternatives, the active management of distributed generation (DG) units and demand response in the context of active distribution networks (ADNs). Representative days are selected for the consideration of uncertainties related with load demand and renewable power generation, during the planning period. The proposed DNP method aims at minimising the net present value of the total investment and operational cost. The proposed DNP considers multiple planning alternatives, such as the reinforcement of existing substations and existing distribution lines, the installation of new distribution lines, and the installation of capacitors. Furthermore, the proposed DNP method incorporates the control capabilities of DG active and reactive power output and demand response schemes. A 24-bus distribution network and a 144-bus real world distribution network are used to validate the performance of the proposed method.
