Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of smart grid technology, and in particular to a method for improving the safety of an active distribution network taking energy storage and demand response into consideration. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the infrastructure of the power system remains sensitive to extreme weather events, the destructive forces of which can quickly and extensively damage the power system, potentially causing regional or even large-scale power outages, which further emphasizes the importance of ensuring the security of the power system.
[0003] The future structure of the Active Distribution Network (ADN) will include multiple microgrid clusters. Microgrids with advanced control technology provide a friendly platform for the integration of distributed energy into the active distribution network, while also providing a better energy management model for different energy carriers. Therefore, the rational use of microgrids is an effective measure to ensure reliable power supply to critical loads and improve the safety of the active distribution network in emergency or catastrophic events. At present, the active distribution network ADN that integrates multiple microgrids still has problems with insufficient security and resilience when facing severe events (Extreme Weather Event, EWE). Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a method for improving the safety of an active distribution network considering energy storage and demand response, comprising the following steps:

[0178] S5. Optimal resource allocation: Using a robust optimization method based on Information Gap Decision Theory (IGDT), we optimize the resource allocation plan for each microgrid cluster to improve the recovery speed and stability of ADN in the face of severe events, consider the synergy between different resources, and ensure the overall economic operation of the system.
[0179] The application of robust optimization methods can enable the system to better cope with uncertainty, thereby further improving the security and robustness of advanced distribution networks (ADNs), such as Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , the robust optimization method based on information gap decision theory specifically includes the following steps:
[0180] S5.1. Setting the objective function:
[0181]
[0182] in, is the objective function, Indicates that at a specific voltage and disturbance The system response, It is a disturbance or interference signal.
[0183] S5.2. Introducing parameter deviation. Robust optimization methods usually take parameter deviation into account, that is, uncertainty is considered as the range of parameter variation during the optimization process. The objective function value can be set to a value that remains unchanged within the parameter deviation range, or an acceptable minimum performance level can be set to ensure that this level can be achieved under uncertainty conditions.
[0184] Constraints on uncertainty parameters:

[0190] S5.4. The robust optimization algorithm based on information gap decision theory is used to determine the upper limit of the uncertainty radius while ensuring that the minimum objective function value is not less than the threshold:
[0191]
[0192] Among them, β RA represents the robustness estimate, is the benchmark value of the objective function under certain conditions.
[0193] In this embodiment, an improved 33-node distribution network is used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed model. The severe event types considered are storms and tornadoes. It is assumed that the necessary data can be obtained through an online meteorological information communication system. At the same time, the hurricane vulnerability curve, technical and economic parameters of distributed power sources and energy storage are referenced through data.
[0194] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the improved topology of 33-node ADN and the layout of various power sources are demonstrated; in the simulation, it is assumed that the accident occurs at 4 a.m. and the system operator is notified in advance; four cases are designed for research and analysis: Case 1, no microgrid and resources are used; Case 2, only distributed energy is available; Case 3, energy storage equipment is added on the basis of Case 2; Case 4, demand-side response is added on the basis of Case 3.
[0195] Step 1: Severe event modeling using hurricane vulnerability curves.
[0196] Step 2: Develop security indicators: Use the inverse of system performance loss as a metric to define the system's security against events. The amount of system performance loss after an event indicates its efficiency in responding to severe events, indicating that the smaller the performance loss, the greater the system's resilience.
[0197] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the system safety indicators under various cases after a serious incident occur. It can be clearly seen from the figure that the system safety index dropped significantly in the 4th hour after the incident; the system safety index of Case 1 was only 32.83%, while the system safety index of Case 2 reached 52.96%, which was 61.29% higher than that of Case 1. This improvement is mainly attributed to the division of the distribution network into autonomous microgrids; the use of network partitioning technology and the inherent functions of microgrids can not only improve the response time of the system, but also reduce the occurrence of load interruptions, thereby improving the adaptability and safety of the system in serious incidents.
[0198] like Figures 5 and 6As shown, the technical indicators of different cases are displayed, including load shedding value, load recovery value and recovery period. Case 4 considers energy storage and demand response technologies, and its load shedding amount is reduced from 8035.49kWh in Case 1 to 2581.99kWh, a reduction of about 67.87%; in addition, compared with Cases 1 to 3, the recovery time of Case 4 is shortened by 61.45%, 53.26% and 30.26%, respectively, which shows that when storage and demand response technologies are comprehensively considered, the system can better cope with severe events and recover from them faster.
[0199] Step 3: Preventive preparations before serious incidents occur:
[0200] like Figure 7 The figure shows the generation dispatch of DER and energy storage in the system preparation phase. The system operator optimizes the dispatch of various power sources to strengthen the network's preparedness for severe events, thereby improving its resilience and safety. Distributed Generation (DG) representing DER will reserve a portion of its generation capacity to activate lines and reactivate unactivated local generation, enabling controllable power sources to balance power in island mode and maintain voltage levels in each area, ensuring system frequency stability.
[0201] The output power of wind / photovoltaic power stations is closely related to natural conditions and system safety limitations, which limit their maximum power generation capacity; although these energy sources have lower economic costs, they cannot generate electricity at maximum capacity and supply power to load locations after severe events due to network congestion; however, energy storage devices have fast charging and discharging capabilities and can store excess renewable energy to a large extent. Therefore, as a preventive measure, optimizing the integration of energy storage devices in distribution network planning can significantly improve system safety.
[0202] Step 4: Microgrid cluster division after a serious incident:
[0203] As shown in Table 1 below, the network division results after the incident are listed; the ADN adopted is divided into seven microgrid areas, and the switching status is optimized to ensure reliable power supply to users and promote power restoration in areas where independent power generation is not possible; dividing the radial distribution network into multiple microgrid areas not only reduces the power outage time for users, but also allows corrective measures to be implemented simultaneously in each area, thereby greatly shortening the power outage time.
[0204] Table 1 Results of network partitions after severe events
[0205]
[0206] Step 5: Optimize resource configuration:
[0207] like Figure 8As shown in the figure, the voltage curves of different nodes in various cases are further illustrated; by comparing the results of the four cases, it can be found that with the increase of available resources in the distribution network, the voltage level of the node has also been significantly improved. For example, Case 4, which integrates DER, energy storage and demand response, shows the smallest voltage fluctuation.
[0208] As shown in Table 2 below, the impact of the uncertainty of the occurrence and termination time of the storm on network decisions is listed. It can be seen that compared with the expected scenario, the worst scenario leads to a 19.70% reduction in load recovery, while the best scenario increases load recovery by 27.43%; these comparative results show that if the system can be fully prepared according to the predicted conditions, the losses caused can be reduced and the system's recovery capacity can be effectively improved.
