Abstract

Active distribution network (ADN) is an important part of the future power market, which undertakes the mission of accommodating high penetration distributed generation. However, traditional dispatch mode of the distribution system cannot accommodate high-penetrated renewable energy. In this paper, a novel optimal scheduling model is developed to optimize the accommodation of distributed renewable energy by coordinating active and reactive power. The proposed model takes capacitor bank (CB), energy storage systems (ESS) and static var generator (SVG) as management devices, optimize the day-ahead dispatchable resources of active distribution system in a centralized manner. Different from second-order cone programming method that cannot cooperate with the maximum DG penetration objective, we apply the successive linear approximation method to transform the original non-convex and nonlinear optimal dispatch model with AC balance equation into a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, so that the model can be solved efficiently and accurately by commercial optimization software. A real distribution system in Nantong is employed to verify the proposed model.
