Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a global sensitivity calculation method for power system risk events based on subset simulation, belonging to the field of power system uncertainty analysis technology. Background Technology

[0002] New energy power generation has reduced the proportion of traditional thermal power units, and related technology research has become a current research hotspot.

[0003] However, the randomness of load and renewable energy leads to fluctuating conditions, increasing the probability of rare risk events such as voltage overruns and line transmission power exceeding limits, posing challenges to power system operation and planning. Furthermore, the probability density functions of load and renewable energy are estimated from historical data, thus their parameters are also uncertain. To ensure the safe operation of the system, it is necessary to quantitatively assess the impact of various uncertain parameters on the probability of rare events in the power system. Global sensitivity analysis is a common tool for quantitatively assessing the impact of uncertain factors, ranking the importance of input variables. The Sobol method, a global sensitivity analysis method based on analysis of variance, is widely used due to its simple definition and significant effectiveness.

[0004] The key to calculating the global sensitivity of power system risk events is accurately assessing the probability of rare events. In existing technologies, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is a common sampling method; however, MCS struggles to sample rare events and capture the tail-end characteristics of the probability density function. Therefore, more efficient methods for estimating low-probability events are needed for application in global sensitivity analysis. Summary of the Invention
