Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of distribution network planning, and in particular relates to a method for planning low-voltage area flexible interconnection devices taking reliability improvement into consideration. Background Art

[0002] As a crucial component of the power system, the distribution network directly serves end users, and its operational status directly impacts their electricity experience. In recent years, the rapid development of distributed generation (such as solar and wind power) has brought new opportunities and challenges to the distribution network. While the integration of distributed generation (DGs) can improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, it also has complex impacts on voltage control, power flow distribution, and power supply reliability within the distribution network. Furthermore, with the influx of new loads such as electric vehicles and energy storage devices, the load characteristics and operational status of the distribution network have become increasingly complex and dynamic. However, traditional distribution networks have inherent flaws, such as a relatively fixed network structure, low power supply reliability, and limited DG access capabilities, making them unable to meet the high reliability requirements of modern power systems. Low-voltage flexible interconnection devices (LVFIDs) offer flexibility in terms of number and location, and their regulatory role is closely related to the location and load characteristics of the connected substations. Therefore, rationally planning the LVFID access plan is crucial for improving distribution network reliability.

[0003] At present, the main methods for distribution network reliability assessment are divided into two categories: analytical methods and simulation methods. The analytical method mainly obtains reliability indicators by calculating explicit expressions based on existing line reliability data, such as failure rates. The analytical method has high solution accuracy, but the existing reliability analytical calculation methods do not involve the access of flexible interconnection devices. The simulation method mainly uses random simulation to conduct a large number of repeated experiments to approximate various reliability indicators of the distribution network, such as Monte Carlo simulation method and Bayesian network time series simulation method. The simulation method has a faster evaluation speed, but the accuracy of the solution depends on the convergence accuracy. In particular, when there are local factors that need to be considered in the distribution network, such as flexible interconnection devices in low-voltage substations, the results of the simulation method are more random and cannot stably reflect the reliability indicators of some substations. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The problem solved by the present invention is to address the shortcomings of existing reliability assessment methods and propose a low-voltage substation flexible interconnection device planning method that takes reliability improvement into consideration, so as to solve the current problem that it is difficult to accurately evaluate the role of low-voltage flexible interconnection devices in improving the reliability of distribution networks.

Second, with users as the minimum transfer unit, a distribution network reliability index and its explicit calculation method are proposed for the first time under low-voltage flexible interconnected conditions. This addresses the limitation of traditional Monte Carlo simulation methods, which rely on convergence accuracy and cannot specifically analyze the power transfer process within a substation. Finally, a planning model for low-voltage flexible interconnected device access schemes is established, using reliability cost and flexible interconnected device cost as objective functions. This effectively addresses the inadequate planning indicators and limited planning methods for existing low-voltage flexible interconnected device planning. This method can more comprehensively evaluate the impact of low-voltage flexible interconnected devices on improving distribution network reliability and has important practical significance for the transformation and construction of flexible interconnected distribution networks.

[0082] Furthermore, based on the results of virtual power flow calculation, a method for dividing the N-1 fault set for the substation is given, and the impact of line faults on the substation is divided into three categories: repair power loss, switching power loss and seamless power loss, which facilitates the accurate calculation of the power loss index of the distribution network substation under the condition of a specific line N-1 fault.

[0083] Furthermore, based on the divided N-1 fault set, the power loss index of users in each substation is calculated when the flexible interconnection device is connected, which facilitates the evaluation of the flexible interconnection device's ability to transfer power to the load under specific faults.

[0084] Furthermore, based on the reliability cost and the installation cost of the flexible interconnection device, the installation location and capacity of the low-voltage substation flexible interconnection device are planned. Under the premise of optimal distribution network reliability, the most economical installation location and capacity can be obtained, helping technicians to form a reasonable flexible interconnection device installation plan.

[0085] To sum up, the present invention takes into account the user-level load transfer between substations with different power outage types under fault conditions, and can accurately measure the fault transfer function of low-voltage flexible interconnection devices. At the same time, the proposed method for site selection and sizing planning of low-voltage substation flexible interconnection devices effectively improves the accuracy of low-voltage substation flexible interconnection planning and has good application prospects.
