Distributed Optimization for Active Distribution Network Considering the Balance of Multi-Stakeholder

Abstract

Nowadays, distributed power generation is highly valued and fully developed since the energy crisis is worsening. At the same time, the distribution system operator is becoming a new stakeholder to take part in the dispatch of the active distribution network (ADN) with the power market being further reformed. Some new challenges to the dispatching of the ADN are brought by these distribution system operators (DSO), which break the traditional requirement of the lowest operating cost. In this paper, the relationship between the maximum revenue and the minimum operating cost of the ADN is fully considered, and the model of the bi-level distributed ADN considering the benefits and privacy protection of multi-stakeholder is established precisely. Further, the model is solved by using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) in which the safety and economy of the ADN are fully considered. Finally, the validity of the model and the feasibility of the algorithm are verified by using the adjusted IEEE 33 bus.

A scheduling framework for a multi‐agent active distribution network in presence of renewable energy sources

“…In reference [14], a bi-level distributed optimization model for operational scheduling of a MAADN considering the benefits and privacy protection of agents, that is, the DSO and virtual MGs is proposed. This model has been solved using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM).…”

Research on Comprehensive Carrying Capacity Evaluation Indicator System and Optimal Dispatching of Active Distribution Network

“…According to the description of CIGRE, ADN is equipped with intelligent management technology and information collection technology, which can be better managed and dispatched [2] . Improving the comprehensive benefits of active distribution networks mainly starts with distributed energy and some other active controllable resources which have great potential to support the power grid [3] .…”
