Spatio-Temporal Adaptive Voltage Coordination Control Strategy for Distribution Networks with High Photovoltaic Penetration

With the increasing penetration of distributed photovoltaics (PVs) in distribution networks (DNs), issues like voltage violations and fluctuations are becoming more prominent. This paper proposes a spatio-temporal adaptive voltage coordination control strategy involving multiple timescales and multi-device collaboration. Aiming at the heavy workload caused by the continuous sampling of real-time data in the whole domain, an intra-day innovative construction of intra-day minute-level optimization and real-time adaptive control double-layer control mode are introduced. Intra-day minute-level refinement of on-load tap changer (OLTC) and step voltage regulator (SVR) day-ahead scheduling plans to fully utilize OLTC and SVR voltage regulation capabilities and improve voltage quality is discussed. In real-time adaptive control, a regional autonomy mechanism based on the functional area voltage quality risk prognostication coefficient (VQRPC) is innovatively proposed, where each functional area intelligently selects the time period for real-time voltage regulation of distributed battery energy storage systems (DESSs) based on VQRPC value, in order to improve real-time voltage quality while reducing the data sampling workload. Aiming at the state of charge (SOC) management of DESS, a novel functional area DESS available capacity management mechanism is proposed to coordinate DESS output and improve SOC homogenization through dynamically updated power–capacity availability (PCA). And vine model threshold band (VMTB) and deviation optimization management (DOM) strategies based on functional area are innovatively proposed, where DOM optimizes DESS output through the VMTB to achieve voltage fluctuation suppression while optimizing DESS available capacity. Finally, the DESS and electric vehicle (EV) cooperative voltage regulation mechanism is constructed to optimize DESS capacity allocation, and the black-winged kite algorithm (BKA) is used to manage DESS output. The results of a simulation on a modified IEEE 33 system show that the proposed strategy reduces the voltage fluctuation rate of each functional area by an average of 36.49%, reduces the amount of data collection by an average of 68.31%, and increases the available capacity of DESS by 5.8%, under the premise of a 100% voltage qualification rate.

Abstract

With the increasing penetration of distributed photovoltaics (PVs) in distribution networks (DNs), issues like voltage violations and fluctuations are becoming more prominent. This paper proposes a spatio-temporal adaptive voltage coordination control strategy involving multiple timescales and multi-device collaboration. Aiming at the heavy workload caused by the continuous sampling of real-time data in the whole domain, an intra-day innovative construction of intra-day minute-level optimization and real-time adaptive control double-layer control mode are introduced. Intra-day minute-level refinement of on-load tap changer (OLTC) and step voltage regulator (SVR) day-ahead scheduling plans to fully utilize OLTC and SVR voltage regulation capabilities and improve voltage quality is discussed. In real-time adaptive control, a regional autonomy mechanism based on the functional area voltage quality risk prognostication coefficient (VQRPC) is innovatively proposed, where each functional area intelligently selects the time period for real-time voltage regulation of distributed battery energy storage systems (DESSs) based on VQRPC value, in order to improve real-time voltage quality while reducing the data sampling workload. Aiming at the state of charge (SOC) management of DESS, a novel functional area DESS available capacity management mechanism is proposed to coordinate DESS output and improve SOC homogenization through dynamically updated power–capacity availability (PCA). And vine model threshold band (VMTB) and deviation optimization management (DOM) strategies based on functional area are innovatively proposed, where DOM optimizes DESS output through the VMTB to achieve voltage fluctuation suppression while optimizing DESS available capacity. Finally, the DESS and electric vehicle (EV) cooperative voltage regulation mechanism is constructed to optimize DESS capacity allocation, and the black-winged kite algorithm (BKA) is used to manage DESS output. The results of a simulation on a modified IEEE 33 system show that the proposed strategy reduces the voltage fluctuation rate of each functional area by an average of 36.49%, reduces the amount of data collection by an average of 68.31%, and increases the available capacity of DESS by 5.8%, under the premise of a 100% voltage qualification rate.
