Energy hubs play an important role in implementing the integrated energy system as an interconnection point between various energy components and networks. Energy networks also influence the management of the energy hubs. Therefore, the problem of optimal operation of the energy hubs and energy networks is modeled as a bi-level optimization problem in this paper. In the proposed bi-level model, the...
This paper proposes a Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) simulation based multi-objective economic dispatch, which aims to reduce the fuel cost and emission of the grid simultaneously. During the simulation, QMC models the stochastic behaviours of wind speed and distributed loads with low-discrepancy sequences. In comparison with conventional Monte Carlo (MC) simulation, the computational complexity of QMC is...
This paper proposed an economic dispatch scheme based on stochastic frame. Compared with conventional dispatch, the stochastic dispatch fully considers the variation of distributed load variations in the grid between dispatch intervals. The objective function of the stochastic dispatch scheme aims to minimize the distribution of fuel cost rather than a single value. Due to the stochastic analysis,...
This paper presents an evolutionary algorithm, reference point based multi-objective group search optimizer using non-dominated sorting approach (r-NSGSO), for optimal power flow problem with multiple objectives. First, the six objectives of optimal power flow are reduced to two objectives which represent the secure and economic indices, respectively. The r-NSGSO integrates the non-dominated sorting...
This paper focuses on implementing a dimensional Q-learning (DQL) for solving reactive power optimization with discrete control variables. The proposed algorithm applies the traditional Q-learning to search the feasible region dimensionally, so that the memory amount of each agent can be largely reduced. Meanwhile, the safety margin of voltage amplitude and reactive power output of generators are...
This paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method for solving the Security-Constrained Optimal Power Flow (SCOPF) problem with the consideration of solar farm integrated and distributed load variations in the grid. In this scheme, the power generated by solar farm is affected by the weather uncertainty. The dispatch objectives are formulated to minimize fuel cost and emission simultaneously...
To improve power system stability in this paper, a method for optimal coordinate control of power system stabilizers (PSSs) and static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is presented. The optimal coordinated control of multiple PSSs and STATCOM is transformed into an optimization problem in which both rotor angle speed deviation between generators and load voltages deviation after fault are involved...
Pollution of the power plant has caused harmful environmental effects due to the emission of greenhouse gas. The pollution can be reduced by adjusting the real power outputs of different power plants. However, the relocation of real power outputs results an additional outlay in the system. In order to eliminate the conflict between the cost and emission, an optimal power flow is introduced in this...
Optimal Power Flow (OPF) is an effective tool for dispatch planning of power systems, and the algorithms aiming to solve the OPF have been widely studied. Among these algorithms, the Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are a popular type, which have been investigated. However, EAs are also notorious for the intensive computation caused by a large amount of evaluations of the objective function required...
For many years, partial discharge (PD) activity has been used in air-cooled generators as one of the important indicators of degradation mechanisms in stator winding insulation. Up to a certain level, these degradation processes are slow. Under normal operation, PD measurement and trending can generally indicate that not only electrical but also mechanical, thermal or ambient (contamination) degradation...
The static voltage stability assessment (VSA) for a typical load center is discussed in this paper. Two indices are proposed for the static VSA of load centers. Moreover, the corresponding criteria are made for Beijing power system (BPS). A framework is developed in this paper to deal with the contingencies for the transmission interface and local generators which are critical to the static voltage...
