Multiobjective Planning Of Open-loop Mv Distribution Networks Using Comgis Network Analysis And Moga

摘要

An advanced method for optimal planning of open-loop medium voltage (MV) distribution network is proposed in this paper. The multiobjective planning model of open-loop MV distribution network is formulated, and an outage cost calculating method applicable for open-loop MV distribution networks is proposed. To solve the optimization problem, a special Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is designed based on the network dataset built by Component Geographical Information Systems (ComGIS). The network analysis function of the ComGIS is embedded in the overall optimization process of the MOGA to find single-loop optimal paths. Crossover and mutation operator are designed according to characteristics of the coding. The evolutionary orientation is directed by the fitness function based on the Pareto order of individuals. The Pareto Optimal Set (POS) including several candidate planning schemes is obtained through the MOGA, from which the recommended scheme is selected. The practicability of the method is tested by its application to a real distribution system.
