“…The increasing tendency toward integrating renewable energy sources (RESs) into electrical power distribution networks has created new overall system balancing challenges, leading researchers to investigate the requirement for innovative balancing services and market design (Sbordone et al, 2015;van der Veen and Hakvoort. 2016;Vicente-Pastor et al, 2019).…”

The growing penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) in the electrical power sector has increased the amount of distributed generation (DG) units connected at the distribution system level. In this context, new balancing challenges have arisen, creating the need for a novel use case methodology to enable an active role at the distribution system level such that transmission system operators (TSOs) can coordinate with distribution system operators (DSOs) with regard to connected resources for balancing purposes. In this study, the exploitation of the DSO-connected resources for balancing purposes in a market environment is proposed and evaluated via a novel business use case (BUC) methodology based on the categorization of IEC 62913-1. More specifically, in order to address different balancing market situations, two scenarios are considered with regard to the BUC. The first one represents the data exchange between the TSO, the DSO, and the balancing service provider (BSP). The second one represents an alternative scenario where data are exchanged directly between the TSO and the DSO, where the DSO also takes on the role of the BSP. The proposed BUC was also developed in order to validate the required data modeling and exchange mechanisms between DSOs and TSOs in order to exploit DSO-connected resources for overall system balancing purposes across different time scales.

Abstract-In this paper, we study a Day-ahead Market(DAM) double energy auction in a distribution system involving dispatchable generation units, renewable generation units supported by battery storage systems(BSSs), fixed loads, price responsive loads, and supply from the Wholesale Market(WSM) at Locational Marginal Price (LMP). The auction is implemented within a Distribution System Operator (DSO) premises using Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP). The proposed auction is cleared at the Distribution LMP (DLMP) and is observed to be weakly budget balanced if no penalty is applied for DSO's deviation from its original commitment with the WSM. Furthermore, the dynamics of DLMP versus LMP, and their effect on distribution market participants scheduled quantities as well as the WSM supply to the distribution system is investigated.

“…Distribution system operators (DSOs) have traditionally been responsible for the reliable and economic operation of power distribution systems which has been independent from the transmission system operator (TSO) [1]. From the traditional monopolized power industry to the gradually decentralized developed context of the competitive electricity market with advanced ICT facilities, the integrated ISO/RTO market could be decomposed into the wholesale market in the transmission system and retail markets in the distribution systems [2,3]. Accordingly, a more volatile and unpredictable operation pattern is imposed to DSO, acting as an intermediary [4] and coping with transaction issues between TSO and demand-side resources (DSRs) aggregators.…”

“…Accordingly, a more volatile and unpredictable operation pattern is imposed to DSO, acting as an intermediary [4] and coping with transaction issues between TSO and demand-side resources (DSRs) aggregators. However, events such as the cooperation failure [1] of TSO and DSOs which led to low physical and economic performances as a lack of reserve sharing, the recurrence of price spikes due to congestion which gave rise to market malfunction, and even major area blackouts arising from the switch equipment's shifted breakdown in a distribution system reveal that a number of unresolved issues remain a challenging concern about the decomposition and coordination [2,3] of TSO and DSOs in the decentralized market environment.…”

Multi-period Market Operation of Transmission-Distribution Systems Based on Heterogeneous Decomposition and Coordination

The integration of shiftable/curtailment distribution generators (DGs) along with quick-response storage has not only increased the transaction’s flexibility but also puzzled the bidding willingness of transmission-connected market players (TMPs). In this paper, the method of heterogeneous decomposition and coordination (HGDC) is applied to decompose the integrated transmission-distribution market framework into a bi-level problem with a transmission wholesale market master problem and several distribution retail market subproblems in a decentralized organization structure. The price-based bidding willingness of demand-side resources’ (DSRs’) aggregator is simulated considering the relation between distribution system operator’s (DSO’s) operation modes and its equivalent market transactive price. Besides the traditional mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, the active reconfiguration model of DSOs based on mixed-integer second-order conic programming (MI-SOCP) is proposed to rearrange its operation switch status and elaborate its operation cost according to the market transaction. Multi-period optimal operation modes could be obtained through an HGDC-based iteration process by coordinating the transmission system operator (TSO) with DSOs and considering the market energy equilibrium and reserve requirements for security considerations. Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions are used to testify the optimality and convergence of the bi-level model in theory. The T5-3D33 case is employed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed model and method.
