Multi-Objective Optimal Planning for Distribution Network Considering the Uncertainty of PV Power and Line-Switch State.

With the construction of the smart grid, the distribution network with high penetration of the photovoltaic (PV) generator relies more and more on cyber systems to achieve active control; thus, the uncertainty of PV power and the line-switch state will inevitably affect the distribution network. To avoid the situation, a min-max multi-objective two-level planning model is proposed. Firstly, the uncertainty of PV power is considered, and a multi-time PV power model is established. Followed by the analysis of the line-switch state uncertainty in the distribution network, and according to Claude Shannon's information theory, the line-switch state uncertainty model is established under multiple scenarios. After the distribution network reconfiguration, the Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) method is used to determine the line-switch state when the uncertainty budget is different. Finally, considering the worstcase by the uncertainty of PV power and line-switch status, the control model is proposed to improve the stability of the distribution network with the minimal maintenance cost. The model feasibility is verified by the test system and the characteristics of PV power uncertainty, the line-switch state uncertainty is analyzed, and the influence of the scheduling strategy is discussed, thus providing practical technical support for the distribution network.
