Optimal control method of active distribution network considering soft open point and thermostatically controlled loads under distributed photovoltaic access

To achieve the flexible operation of the active distribution network (ADN), an optimal control method for the ADN considering the soft open point (SOP) and thermostatically controlled loads under distributed photovoltaic (PV) access is proposed. First, the mathematical model of the SOP and thermosta...

description To achieve the flexible operation of the active distribution network (ADN), an optimal control method for the ADN considering the soft open point (SOP) and thermostatically controlled loads under distributed photovoltaic (PV) access is proposed. First, the mathematical model of the SOP and thermostatically controlled loads are constructed based on the flexibility of the SOP and the thermal storage characteristic of thermostatically controlled loads, respectively. Then, the mathematical model of the ADN considering the SOP and thermostatically controlled loads are further constructed. The optimal control of the ADN is realized by adjusting the transmission power of the SOP and the switching state of the electric water heater. Finally, the optimal operation analysis of the SOP and thermostatically controlled loads under various control methods is carried out, and the impact of the SOP and thermostatically controlled loads on the economic and secure operation of the ADN is further investigated. The results show that the proposed method taps the demand response potential of thermostatically controlled loads while satisfying the water consumption habits of different customers, and utilizes the network reconfiguration with the SOP to further improve the security and economy of the ADN operation.
