“…or lower than 0.95 p.u., the real power of ESSs or VSC2 (P ESS or P AC VSC2 ) in the same partition is used to regulate node voltages based on (17). Especially, the absolute value of Q AC VSC2 will be reduced in order to release the rating of VSC2 for real power to regulate node voltages if real power is limited by current ratings of VSC2, and the P AC VSC2 and Q AC VSC2 can be calculated through (20). The flowchart of priority-based coordination is shown in Fig.…”

“…Reference [19] divided the power system into regions based on a graph partition method and investigated a secondary voltage control for each region to prevent the propagation of disturbances. Reference [20] developed an approach for voltage and reactive power control in order to deal with the fluctuations caused by intermittent changes of renewable resources. However, in order to achieve local compensation of reactive power in AC system, existing references only considered reactive power, which does not exist in DC lines.…”

In a hybrid AC/DC medium voltage distribution network, distributed generations (DGs), energy storage systems (ESSs), and the voltage source converters (VSCs) between AC and DC lines, have the ability to regulate node voltages in real-time. However, the voltage regulation abilities of above devices are limited by their ratings. And the voltage regulation efficiencies of these devices are also different. Besides, due to high r/x ratio, node voltages are influenced by both real and reactive power. In order to achieve the coordinated voltage regulation in a hybrid AC/ DC distribution network, a priority-based real-time control strategy is proposed based on the voltage control effect of real and reactive power adjustment. The equivalence of real and reactive power adjustment on voltage control is considered in control area partition optimization, in which regulation efficiency and capability are taken as objectives. In order to accommodate more DGs, the coordination of controllable devices is achieved according to voltage sensitivities. Simulations studies are performed to verify the proposed method.

Summary This paper presents optimal coordination and management of on‐load tap changer (OLTC), distribution static compensator (D‐STATCOM), distribution generation (DG), and reconfiguration to maximize annual cost savings and improve voltage profile using hybrid optimization. An analytical approach is developed to find optimal setting of OLTC. Optimal reconfiguration of the network is derived using genetic algorithm. Optimal location of DG and D‐STATCOM is determined using gravitational search algorithm, and optimal ratings are obtained using interface with MATLAB and GAMS environment. Fourteen realistic case studies are investigated in this paper work. In the first scenario, regulating devices are disabled to monitor the voltage profile and energy loss of the test system. In the remaining cases, influence of OLTC, DG, D‐STATCOM, and reconfiguration is independently and simultaneously studied. In the last scenario, OLTC, DG, D‐STATCOM, and reconfiguration are enabled to maintain voltage security and minimize power losses. Simulation results are obtained for IEEE 69‐bus test system and compared with other existing methods available in the literature. The proposed technique is reliable and efficient to obtain global optimal solution. Simulation results clearly indicate that optimal coordination and management among OLTC, DG, D‐STATCOM, and reconfiguration is required to maximize annual cost savings and maintain voltage at each node as per statutory requirements. Moreover, the analysis has been carried out for time‐varying distribution system with realistic load model.
