Abstract

As the penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) significantly increases, their inherent uncertainty has brought about a paradigm shift in distribution system planning and operation. The existing planning methodologies usually consider the uncertainty during the investment and day-ahead stages while neglecting the interactive power fluctuations during the intraday stage, resulting in planning schemes with a risk of inadequate regional stability. In light of this, this paper proposes a novel adaptive robust distribution system planning approach that integrates local uncertainty management (LUM) to provide a comprehensive and refined consideration of uncertainty. First, we introduce the concept of LUM that can effectively address the deviations between predicted and actual power of RES and load. Second, we propose the adaptive robust planning model for the distribution system, in which the investment and day-ahead operation are considered in the first stage, while LUM is considered in the second stage to maintain the local stability of interactive power. The proposed model can actively manage uncertainties of RES and load demand, reaching the optimal balance between the investment cost, operational cost, and LUM cost. Finally, by employing the column-and-constraint generation (C&CG), the adaptive robust planning model is decoupled into a master min problem and a slaver max-min problem, after which the max-min problem is converted into a single mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem through the strong duality theory and big-M method. The effectiveness of the proposed model is demonstrated using a real-world distribution system located in Fujian Province, China. The simulation results indicate that the proposed model achieves a quantitative decrease of approximately 10% in total cost compared to deterministic planning. Sensitivity analysis is also conducted to reveal the trade-off between economic cost and robustness level.
