Abstract

This paper presents a new multi-objective optimization technique for multi-terminal DC (MTDC) networks to enhance power dispatch control under stochastic operating conditions. The proposed method utilizes the DC voltage droop control concept to achieve distributed DC voltage control of the MTDC grid, while a centralized power dispatch controller monitors system operation and updates the voltage droop settings of the onshore converters in order for them to comply with scheduled power set-points dispatched by the transmission system operator, maintaining at the same time low system losses. The overall optimization problem is formulated and its effectiveness is assessed applying the Monte-Carlo simulation method. A five-terminal MTDC grid is selected as a study-case system, which corresponds to the planning for the future interconnection of Aegean Sea islands with significant wind potential to the mainland grid.
