Abstract:

In this paper, the optimal configuration of energy storage systems in active distribution networks with reliability in mind is investigated. First, a reliable calculation method for power supply reliability of a distribution network with a source is proposed, taking into account load time series, distributed photovoltaic output, and energy storage system operation. Then, with reliability in mind, an optimal configuration model of an energy storage system in an active distribution network is proposed. The model comprehensively considers the distribution network's reliability and economy indexes, and the constraints include distribution network power flow, system power balance, photovoltaic output, and energy storage system operation. Finally, using a 17-node distribution network as an example, the genetic algorithm is used to solve the model in this paper, resulting in the optimal installation location and capacity of the energy storage system in the photovoltaic distribution system. Furthermore, the effects of various installation schemes including synchronous configuration of energy storage and distributed photovoltaic, centralized configuration of energy storage on the system side, and setting of weight coefficients of sub-objectives on the objective function are evaluated and discussed.

Key words: active distribution network, distributed photovoltaic, energy storage system, reliability, optimal configuration
