Analysis of Steady-State Operation of Active Distribution Network under
Uncertain Conditions
Abstract
Recently, distributed generators (DGs) have been widely integrated into
distribution network, so that the distribution network is gradually
transforming into an active distribution network (ADN). Due to the
influence of meteorological conditions, the output of DGs has high
uncertainty. At the same time, considering the increasing variety of
loads in ADNs, the uncertainty of load demand of user side is also
increasing. In order to fully consider the uncertainty of measurement
and quantitatively evaluate the operational status, this paper proposes
a steady-state analysis method for ADNs under uncertain conditions.
Firstly, this paper proposes a steady-state analysis method including
power flow analysis model and evaluation indicators for the operation
status from the perspectives of node and network. Secondly, the
uncertainty factors are elaborated from three aspects: sources, impact
on evaluation index and impact on scheduling. The evaluation indicators
considering uncertain conditions, the impact on system security and
scheduling of network are further discussed. Finally, through the
simulation analysis of the modified IEEE 33-node test system, The
effectiveness of the proposed method are verified.
