Abstract
Generalized Distribution Energy Systems (GDES) contribute to increasing the efficiency of energy use and renewable energy accommodation by coupling multiple energy sources. This article presents the network flow model for implementation of the optimal operation of the GDES. The special topological characteristic of the distribution system allows network constraints to be represented by Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws. The proposal uses a mixed—integer quadratic objective function and linear constraints to determine optimal power allocation by minimizing the distributed generation costs and transmission weakly meshed losses. The distribution components, capacity limits (transformers, lines and switching operations) are considerate. The robustness of the model is tested on 16—bus, 34—bus and 89—bus systems in radial or meshed distribution systems under different scenarios. The optimal Network Flow Model demonstrates the accuracy and efficiency in three tested systems.
