Multi-objective short-term scheduling of active distribution networks for benefit maximization of DisCos and DG owners considering demand response programs and energy storage system

摘要

This paper proposes a multi-objective benefit function for operation of active distribution systems considering demand response program(DRP)and energy storage system(ESS).In the active distribution system,active network management(ANM)is applied so that the distribution system equipment is controlled in real-time status based on the real-time measurements of system parameters(voltages and currents).The multi-objective optimization problem is solved using e-constraint method,and a fuzzy satisfying approach has been employed to select the best compromise solution.Two different objective functions are considered as follows:benefit maximization of distribution company(DisCo);benefit maximization of distributed generation owner(DGO).To increase the benefits and efficient implementation of distributed generation(DG),DGO has installed battery as energy storage system(ESS)in parallel with DG unit.Consequently,DGO decides for the battery charging/discharging.DisCo has the ability to exchange energy with the upstream network and DGO.Also,DisCo focuses to study the effect of demand response program(DRP)on total benefit function and consequently its influence on the load profile has been discussed.This model is successfully applied to a 33-bus radial distribution network.
