Abstract
Traditional distribution system recovery strategies can handle non-overlapping disasters, typically a single N-k failure, rather than multi-overlapping disasters. Multi-overlapping disaster refers to a scenario in which a system experiences multiple N-k failures, with a new N-k failure occurring before the system has been fully restored from the previous one. To address the recovery problem under multi-overlapping disasters, a rolling recovery model for unbalanced distribution systems that considers both repair crews (RCs) and mobile power sources (MPSs) is proposed. The proposed rolling recovery model can automatically optimize preceding recovery strategies based on the grid topology and the state of each resilient resource at the overlapping moment of each disaster. Case studies are conducted on the modified IEEE 33-node test system to demonstrate the concept of multi-overlapping disaster recovery. Compared to traditional methods that treat multi-overlapping disasters as multiple individual disasters, the case studies demonstrate that the proposed model can reduce load shedding by about 6.91 %, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed methodology for updating recovery strategies at overlapping moments of disasters.
