文摘In contemporary medium-voltage distribution networks heavily penetrated by distributed energy resources(DERs),the harmonic components injected by power-electronic interfacing converters,together with the inherently intermittent output of renewable generation,distort the zero-sequence current and continuously reshape its frequency spectrum.As a result,single-line-to-ground(SLG)faults exhibit a pronounced,strongly non-stationary behaviour that varies with operating point,load mix and DER dispatch.Under such circumstances the performance of traditional rule-based algorithms—or methods that rely solely on steady-state frequency-domain indicators—degrades sharply,and they no longer satisfy the accuracy and universality required by practical protection systems.To overcome these shortcomings,the present study develops an SLG-fault identification scheme that transforms the zero-sequence currentwaveforminto two-dimensional image representations and processes themwith a convolutional neural network(CNN).First,the causes of sample-distribution imbalance are analysed in detail by considering different neutralgrounding configurations,fault-inception mechanisms and the statistical probability of fault occurrence on each phase.Building on these insights,a discriminator network incorporating a Convolutional Block Attention Module(CBAM)is designed to autonomously extract multi-layer spatial-spectral features,while Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping(Grad-CAM)is employed to visualise the contribution of every salient image region,thereby enhancing interpretability.A comprehensive simulation platform is subsequently established for a DER-rich distribution system encompassing several representative topologies,feeder lengths and DER penetration levels.Large numbers of realistic SLG-fault scenarios are generated—including noise and measurement uncertainty—and are used to train,validate and test the proposed model.Extensive simulation campaigns,corroborated by field measurements from an actual utility network,demonstrate that the proposed approach attains an SLG-fault identification accuracy approaching 100 percent and maintains robust performance under severe noise conditions,confirming its suitability for real-world engineering applications.

文摘The petal-shaped distribution network has high power supply reliability.However,the closed-loop operation mode and the access of inverter-interfaced distributed generators(IIDGs)bring great challenges to the protection schemes.The current amplitude differential protection is an effective means to solve this problem,but the existing criterions rarely consider both sensitivity to high-resistance faults and low requirements for data synchronization.Therefore,the general variation laws of the amplitude difference between the current steady-state components at both terminals and the phase differences between current fault components at both terminals are revealed.For external faults,the steady-state-component current amplitude difference is around zero and the fault-component current phase difference is around 180◦.For internal faults,either the amplitude difference is large or the phase difference is small.Accordingly,a current differential protection scheme based on the pre-fault and postfault steady-state current is proposed.The amplitude and phase of current at both terminals of the protected line are required in the proposed scheme,which has low requirements for data synchronization.The simulation results show that the proposed protection scheme is not affected by the fault type,position,resistance and capacity of the IIDGs.It can also be applied to radial distribution networks with IIDGs.
文摘A distributed generation system(DG)has several benefits over a traditional centralized power system.However,the protection area in the case of the distributed generator requires special attention as it encounters stability loss,failure re-closure,fluctuations in voltage,etc.And thereby,it demands immediate attention in identifying the location&type of a fault without delay especially when occurred in a small,distributed generation system,as it would adversely affect the overall system and its operation.In the past,several methods were proposed for classification and localisation of a fault in a distributed generation system.Many of those methods were accurate in identifying location,but the accuracy in identifying the type of fault was not up to the acceptable mark.The proposed work here uses a shallow artificial neural network(sANN)model for identifying a particular type of fault that could happen in a specific distribution network when used in conjunction with distributed generators.Firstly,a distribution network consisting of two similar distributed generators(DG1 and DG2),one grid,and a 100 Km distribution line is modeled.Thereafter,different voltages and currents corresponding to various faults(line to line,line to ground)at different locations are tabulated,resulting in a matrix of 500×18 inputs.Secondly,the sANN is formulated for identifying the types of faults in the system in which the above-obtained data is used to train,validate,and test the neural network.The overall result shows an unprecedented almost zero percent error in identifying the type of the faults.

文摘With the growing integration of renewable energy sources(RESs)and smart interconnected devices,conventional distribution networks have turned to active distribution networks(ADNs)with complex system model and power flow dynamics.The rapid fluctuation of RES power may easily result in frequent voltage violation issues.Taking the flexible RES reactive power as control variables,this paper proposes a two-layer control scheme with Koopman wide neural network(WNN)based model predictive control(MPC)method for optimal voltage regulation and network loss reduction.Based on Koopman operator theory,a data-driven WNN method is presented to fit a high-dimensional linear model of power flow.With the model,voltage and network loss sensitivities are computed analytically,and utilized for ADN partition and control model formulation.In the lower level,a dual-mode adaptive switching MPC strategy is put forward for optimal voltage control and network loss optimization in each individual partition to decide the RES reactive power.The upper level is to calculate the adjustment coefficients of the RES reactive power given in the low level by taking the coupling effects of different partitions into account,and then the final reactive power dispatches of RESs are obtained to realize optimal control of voltage and network loss.Simulation results on two ADNs demonstrate that the proposed strategy can reliably maintain the voltage at each node within the secure range,reduce network power losses,and enhance the overall system security and economic efficiency.

文摘The dense integration of residential distributed photovoltaic(PV)systems into three-phase,four-wire low-voltage(LV)distribution networks results in reverse power flow and three-phase imbalance,leading to voltage violations that hinder the growth of rural distributed PV systems.Traditional voltage droop-based control methods regulate PV power output solely based on local voltage measurements at the point of PV connection.Due to a lack of global coordination and optimization,their efficiency is often subpar.This paper presents a centralized coordinated active/reactive power control strategy for PV inverters in rural LV distribution feeders with high PV penetration.The strategy optimizes residential PV inverter reactive and active power control to enhance voltage quality.It uses sensitivity coefficients derived from the inverse Jacobian matrix to assign adjustment weights to individual PV units and iteratively optimize their power outputs.The control sequence prioritizes reactive power increases;if the coefficients are below average or the inverters reach capacity,active power is curtailed until voltage issues are resolved.A simulation based on a real 37-node rural distribution network shows that the proposed method significantly reduces PV curtailment.Typical daily results indicate a curtailment rate of 1.47%,which is significantly lower than the 15.4%observed with the voltage droop-based control method.The total daily PV power output(measured every 15 min)increases from 5.55 to 6.41 MW,improving PV hosting capacity.

文摘With the prevalence of renewable distributed energy resources(DERs)such as photovoltaics(PVs),modern active distribution networks(ADNs)suffer from voltage deviation and power quality issues.However,traditional voltage control methods often face a trade-off between efficiency and effectiveness,and rarely ensure robust voltage safety under typical state perturbations in practical distribution grids.In this paper,a robust model-free voltage regulation approach is proposed which simultaneously takes security and robustness into account.In this context,the voltage control problem is formulated as a constrained Markov decision process(CMDP).A safety-augmented multiagent deep deterministic policy gradient(MADDPG)algorithm is the trained to enable real-time collaborative optimization of ADNs,aiming to maintain nodal voltages within safe operational limits while minimizing total line losses.Moreover,a robust regulation loss is introduced to ensure reliable performance under various state perturbations in practical voltage controls.The proposed regulation algorithm effectively balance efficiency,safety,and robustness,and also demonstrates potential for generalizing these characteristics to other applications.Numerical studies vali-date the robustness of the proposed method under varying state perturbations on the IEEE test cases and the optimal integrated control performance when compared to other benchmarks.

文摘Thermal storage electric heating(TSEH),as a prevalent variable load resource,offers significant potential for enhancing system flexibility when aggregated into a cluster.To address the uncertainties of renewable energy and load forecasting in active distribution networks(ADN),this paper proposes a multi-timescale coordinated optimal dispatch strategy that incorporates TSEH clusters.It utilizes the thermal storage characteristics and short-term regulation capabilities of TSEH,along with the rapid and gradual response characteristics of resources in active distribution grids,to develop a coordinated optimization dispatch mechanism for day-ahead,intraday,and real-time stages.It provides a coordinated optimized dispatch technique across several timescales for active distribution grids,taking into account the integration of TSEH clusters.The proposed method is validated on a modified IEEE 33-node system.Simulation results demonstrate that the participation of TSEH in collaborative optimization significantly reduces the total system operating cost by 8.71%compared to the scenario without TSEH.This cost reduction is attributed to a 10.84%decrease in interaction costs with the main grid and a 47.41%reduction in network loss costs,validating effective peak shaving and valley filling.The multi-timescale framework further enhances economic efficiency,with overall operating costs progressively decreasing by 3.91%(intraday)and 4.59%(real-time),and interaction costs further reduced by 5.34%and 9.25%,respectively.Moreover,the approach enhances system stability by effectively suppressing node voltage fluctuations and ensuring all voltages remain within safe operating limits during real-time operation.Therefore,the proposed approach achieves rational coordination of diverse resources,significantly improving the economic efficiency and stability of ADNs.

文摘Ensuring reliable power supply in urban distribution networks is a complex and critical task.To address the increased demand during extreme scenarios,this paper proposes an optimal dispatch strategy that considers the coordination with virtual power plants(VPPs).The proposed strategy improves systemflexibility and responsiveness by optimizing the power adjustment of flexible resources.In the proposed strategy,theGaussian Process Regression(GPR)is firstly employed to determine the adjustable range of aggregated power within the VPP,facilitating an assessment of its potential contribution to power supply support.Then,an optimal dispatch model based on a leader-follower game is developed to maximize the benefits of the VPP and flexible resources while guaranteeing the power balance at the same time.To solve the proposed optimal dispatch model efficiently,the constraints of the problem are reformulated and resolved using the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker(KKT)optimality conditions and linear programming duality theorem.The effectiveness of the strategy is illustrated through a detailed case study.

文摘In order to cope with the global environmental crisis caused by energy generation and achieve carbon neutrality,it is imperative to promote a new power system dominated by renewable energy sources(RESs).This paper focuses on the uncertainty of RESs and the distribution characteristics of carbon emission flows(CEFs),and studies the low-carbon operation and power system planning problem.Firstly,this paper extends the uncertainty of RES to the meteorological field and establishes meteorological robust constraints of photovoltaic(PV)generation.Based on the CEF theory,the carbon transmission trajectory is accurately delineated to improve the operation of power system.Considering further constraints from the power flow,CEF,and component operation characteristics of the active distribution network(ADN),this paper formulates a low-carbon joint planning model of ADN with PV,battery energy storage system(BESS),and distributed gas generator(DGG),taking into account economy and carbon reduction.In the case study,the low-carbon planning and operation scheme are analyzed in detail across multiple dimensions including time and space.The solution results show that the planning model can effectively leverage the low-carbon performance of PV and BESS,and improve the distribution of CEF.Through case comparison,the model can also efficiently reduce the total cost of the system and enhance carbon emission reduction benefits by 35.10 to 41.04%.

文摘Large-scale access of distributed photovoltaic(PV)in distribution networks(DNs),if not properly evaluated,brings several operational problems.Uncertainties arising from both PV outputs and load demand significantly impact evaluation results.To address this issue,this paper proposes a possibilistic approach to evaluate PV hosting capacity(PVHC).First,possibility distribution is used to model load demand in order to reflect uncertainties associated with human factor,whereas the interval model is applied to deal with uncertainties of PV outputs.Second,a voltage deterioration index is proposed considering overvoltage risk of entire system on time scale.After that,possibilistic PVHC evaluation method based on this index is proposed.A 6-bus system is used to illustrate advantages of the proposed method,followed by a discussion of role of PVHC possibility distribution in actual decision-making of utilities.Moreover,sensitivity of simulation parameters is analyzed to reduce computational burden.Finally,the proposed method is tested on the IEEE 123-bus DN to validate adaptability to a larger system and to analyze impact of PVHC results against different acceptable values set by utilities.

文摘With the high proportion of new energy access,the traditional fault self-healing mechanism of the distribution network is challenged.Aiming at the demand for fast recovery of new distribution network faults,this paper proposes a fault self-healing cooperative strategy for the new energy distribution network based on an improved ant colony-genetic hybrid algorithm.Firstly,the graph theory adjacency matrix is used to characterize the topology of the distribution network,and the dynamic positioning of new energy nodes is realized.Secondly,based on the output model and load characteristic model of wind,photovoltaic,and energy storage,a two-layer cooperative self-healing model of the distribution network is constructed.The upper layer is based on the improved depth-breadth hybrid search(DFS-BFS)to divide the island,with the maximum weight load recovery and the minimum number of switching actions as the goal,combined with the load priority to dynamically restore the key load.The lower layer uses the improved ant colony-genetic hybrid algorithm to solve the fault recovery path with the minimum total power loss load and the minimum network loss as the goal,generate the optimal switching sequence,and verify the power flow constraints.Finally,the simulation results based on the IEEE 33-bus system show that the proposed method can guarantee the power supply of key loads in the distribution network with high-tech energy penetration,restore the power supply of more load nodes with the least switching operation,and effectively reduce the line loss,which verifies the effectiveness and superiority of the method.

文摘With the large-scale integration of new energy sources,various resources such as energy storage,electric vehicles(EVs),and photovoltaics(PV) have participated in the scheduling of active distribution networks(ADNs),posing new challenges to the operation and scheduling of distribution networks.Aiming at the uncertainty of PV and EV,an optimal scheduling model for ADNs based on multi-scenario fuzzy set based charging station resource forecasting is constructed.To address the scheduling uncertainties caused by PV and load forecasting errors,a day-ahead optimal scheduling model based on conditional value at risk(CVaR) for cost assessment is established,with the optimization objectives of minimizing the operation cost of distribution networks and the risk cost caused by forecasting errors.An improved subtractive optimizer algorithm is proposed to solve the model and formulate day-ahead optimization schemes.Secondly,a forecasting model for dispatchable resources in charging stations is constructed based on event-based fuzzy set theory.On this basis,an intraday scheduling model is built to comprehensively utilize the dispatchable resources of charging stations to coordinate with the output of distributed power sources,achieving optimal scheduling with the goal of minimizing operation costs.Finally,an experimental scenario based on the IEEE-33 node system is designed for simulation verification.The comparison of optimal scheduling results shows that the proposed method can fully exploit the potential scheduling resources of charging stations,improving the operation stability of ADNs and the accommodution capacity of new energy.
