Two-stage robust optimal operation of AC/DC distribution networks with power electronic transformers

Power electronic transformers (PET) are a new type of power electronic equipment with a multi-port flexible dispatch function, which can play the role of a power hub in a system composed of multiple AC-DC hybrid distribution grids for interactive sharing of power in multiple regions. In this study,...

description Power electronic transformers (PET) are a new type of power electronic equipment with a multi-port flexible dispatch function, which can play the role of a power hub in a system composed of multiple AC-DC hybrid distribution grids for interactive sharing of power in multiple regions. In this study, a two-stage robust optimization operation model of a hybrid AC-DC distribution network with PET is proposed based on PET power transmission and transformation characteristics. The stochastic uncertainty of the distributed renewable energy output in the AC-DC grid is handled by a two-stage robust optimization method to determine the minimum total system operation cost under the worst case of distributed renewable energy output. Finally, a constrained column generation algorithm is used to solve the two-stage robust optimization model in the min-max-min form and verifies the validity of the model in this study.
