Description
Summary:This paper proposed a robust service restoration method coordinating parallel network reconstruction and load restoration decisions considering cold load pick-up (CLPU) effects. Firstly, a novel parallel network reconstruction model is proposed, which can simultaneously guarantee the radiality of each subsystem and the feasibility of the restoration sequence. The load behaviors during restoration are modeled considering CLPU effects over multiple steps. A two-stage service restoration model is developed to address the uncertainties arising from renewable DGs and loads. The first stage is to minimize total load losses by optimizing the operational decisions of DGs, switches and loads ahead of restoration, while the second state aims to optimize power flow after the decisions are implemented. The model is further formulated as a two-stage robust optimization model with infeasibility penalties in the second stage, which can be solved by the column-and-constraint generation algorithm. Numerical simulation results on a 33-bus distribution system demonstrate the high efficiency and robustness of the proposed method.
