Popis: Abstract The occurrence of natural disasters has led to an alarming increase in power interruptions, with severe impacts. Compounding this problem is the uncertain nature of data, which presents significant challenges in enhancing the resiliency of power distribution systems following such events. To tackle these issues, this paper introduces a robust optimization approach for improving the resiliency of power distribution systems. The approach encompasses crew teams for switching actions as part of the restoration process, along with demand response programs and mobile generators (MGs). By simultaneously leveraging these elements and considering the uncertainty associated with electrical load and electrical price, the resiliency of the system is enhanced. The objective function is tri‐level, comprising minimum, maximum, and minimum functions. At the first level, the approach minimizes the cost of commitment of combined heat and power plants (CHPs) by taking into account the location of MGs and the reconfiguration structure in power distribution systems. The second level aims to identify the worst‐case scenario for the uncertainty variables. Finally, the third level focuses on minimizing the total operation cost under the worst‐case scenario using demand response programs. The proposed algorithm is implemented on an IEEE 33‐bus test distribution system, with four different cases investigated.
