Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of distribution network planning technology, and in particular relates to a distribution network extended planning method and system based on improved reliability explicit expression. Background Technology
[0002] To balance the economic efficiency and reliability of the planning scheme, the planning model should incorporate a reliability assessment process during optimization. Network reconfiguration and islanding operation, as key means of restoring power supply after a fault, should also be included in the reliability assessment process.
[0003] There are three main types of distribution network expansion planning methods that consider reliability: using "N-1" rigid reliability constraints, heuristic optimization planning, and reliability explicit expression model embedded planning.
[0004] The "N-1" rigid reliability constraint ensures that all loads can be transferred through network reconfiguration in the event of a failure in any feeder, but it is prone to excessive margin. Heuristic optimization planning methods, which first randomly generate planning schemes, then verify reliability indicators, and iteratively solve for the optimal network structure, result in excessively long solution times, difficulty in convergence, and inability to guarantee global optimality.
[0005] To overcome the limitations of traditional reliability assessment algorithms that rely on pre-defined network topologies, explicit analytical expressions can be constructed between network topology configuration variables and system reliability indices. These expressions embed reliability constraints into the planning model, achieving synergistic optimization of economy and reliability, and avoiding the risk of suboptimal solutions and convergence uncertainties caused by decoupled solutions. However, existing research on explicit reliability expressions has not yet considered the potential for active islanding operation of distributed generation (DG), which may underestimate the reliability of the distribution network and lead to redundant planning investments. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a distribution network expansion planning method and system based on improved reliability explicit expression.
[0007] The technical problem solved by this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0008] A distribution network expansion planning method based on improved reliability explicit expression specifically includes the following steps:
[0009] (1) Taking into account the time-varying characteristics of source load, a reliability explicit expression model is proposed that considers the collaborative restoration of load power supply by network reconstruction and multi-node islanding operation after a fault. The constraints of the reliability explicit expression model include fault impact identification constraints, recovery strategy modeling constraints, DG operation constraints, energy storage operation constraints and power flow constraints. The model variables include control variables and state variables, which are used to represent reliability indicators.
[0010] (2) The reliability index is embedded into the distribution network extended planning model in the form of constraints, with the goal of minimizing the total cost of each planning stage. The constraints of the distribution network extended planning model include equipment construction constraints, reliability index constraints and normal operation power flow constraints.
[0011] (3) Solve the model to generate a planning scheme that satisfies the reliability constraints and is economically optimal.
[0012] Furthermore, the model variables mentioned in step (1) include control variables and state variables, as detailed below:
[0013] Control variables include device configuration variables. ij : Indicates whether a branch road is planned for construction; branch road connectivity variable Indicates whether the main supply restoration area branch roads are connected and Indicates whether the branch roads in the isolated operating area are connected; node recovery variable
[0014] Indicates whether the main power supply recovery zone nodes are supplying power normally and Indicates whether the nodes in the isolated operation area are receiving power normally;
[0015] State variables include power flow variables P, Q, and V: representing the electrical operating states such as node voltages and branch power flows; branch state variables... Indicates whether a branch is connected; node status. Are nodes affected by faults and Whether the node is powered; auxiliary variables Indicates the affiliation of nodes, branch feeders, and This indicates whether DG can constitute an isolated source;
[0016] Equipment configuration variables are restricted by activation constraints that allow connection only after construction, limiting branch connectivity variables. Branch connectivity variables and node recovery variables are coupled together to determine the power supply path selection of nodes after a fault, i.e. whether the load can achieve power supply recovery through network reconfiguration or islanding operation. Control variables further determine the branch connectivity status and node power supply status, thereby determining the system power flow and reliability indicators. Therefore, power flow constraints, voltage constraints, and reliability constraints limit the feasible values of control variables, forming a closed-loop coupling mechanism.

In this section, xy represents the fault scenario. Variables The definition is: if node i's DG actively runs in an isolated state, then Conversely,
[0028] Equation (8) restricts only the constructed branch lines to be connected; Equations (9)-(10) constrain the connection states of the main power restoration area and the isolated area branch lines to be mutually exclusive; Equation (11) stipulates that nodes unaffected by faults should maintain power supply; Equations (12)-(13) ensure that both the main power restoration area and the isolated area operate radially; Equation (14) defines the overall connection state of the branch line, that is, when it is connected in the main power restoration area or the isolated area, it is considered connected; Equation (15) defines the power supply state of the node, that is, when it is supplying power in any area, it is considered to be supplying power normally; Equation (16) stipulates that the faulty branch line should remain disconnected until the fault is repaired.
[0029] Furthermore, the constraints of the reliability explicit expression model, including the DG operation constraints, energy storage operation constraints, and power flow constraints between the main power recovery zone and the islanded zone, are as follows:

[0037] The power flow constraints of the main supply recovery area and the islanded area include:

[0040] Furthermore, the reliability metrics include two categories: node reliability metrics and system reliability metrics. Node reliability metrics include the client outage duration (CID) at node i. i ) and Customer Interruption Frequency (CIF) i System reliability metrics include the System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI), the System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI), and the Expected Energy Shortage (EENS). When a fault occurs at time t0, the calculation expressions for each metric are as follows:

[0057] Equations (45) and (46) stipulate that only one model of each type of equipment can be selected for construction at each stage; Equation (47) restricts each substation to be constructed only once during the entire planning cycle; Equation (48) embodies the logical constraint that transformers can only be configured after the substation construction is completed; Equations (49) and (50) define the branch construction status at each stage; Equation (51) stipulates that all equipment construction decision variables are binary variables;
[0058] In addition to the constraints mentioned above, branch road construction decisions are subject to the existing network structure; if a branch road is to be constructed, it must form a connecting path to the substation with existing branch roads; define LPM i,s ∈{0,1} indicates whether node i is connected to the established network in stage s:

These normal operating power flow constraints include:
[0069]
[0070] Under normal operating conditions, each branch in the distribution network can flexibly adjust its connectivity through network reconfiguration. The system is unaffected by faults, islanding, or changes in recovery strategies. All nodes maintain normal power supply, and the distributed generation (DG) operates at maximum power. The impact of energy storage devices on system operation under normal conditions is not taken into account.
[0071] An extended planning system for a distribution network based on improved reliability explicit expression includes: a planning model construction module and a planning model solution module, as detailed below:

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0082] As attached Figure 1 As shown, a distribution network extended planning method and system based on improved reliability explicit expression includes the following steps:

The model variables include control variables and state variables, and the constraints include fault impact identification constraints, recovery strategy modeling constraints, DG operation constraints, energy storage operation constraints and power flow constraints. The reliability index can be represented by variables.
