Popis: |
Operators can now remotely control switches and update the control settings for voltage regulators and distributed energy resources (DERs), thus unleashing the network reconfiguration opportunities to improve efficiency. Aligned to this direction, this work puts forth a comprehensive toolbox of optimization models leveraging the control capabilities of smart grid assets. We put forth detailed yet practical models to capture the operation of locally and remotely controlled regulators, and customize the watt-var DER control curves complying with the IEEE 1547.8 mandates. Maintaining radiality is a key requirement germane to various feeder optimization tasks. This requirement is accomplished here through an intuitive and provably correct formulation. The developed toolbox is put into action to reconfigure a grid for minimizing losses using real-world data on a benchmark feeder. The results corroborate that optimal topologies vary across the day and coordinating DERs and regulators is critical during periods of steep net load changes. |
