Title
A Coordinated Restoration Method of Hybrid AC–DC Distribution Network With Electric Buses Considering Transportation System Influence
Abstract
The postdisaster restoration capabilities for critical loads in distribution networks need to be enhanced. In recent years, electric buses (EBs) have been widely used with the carbon-neutral target, which can be dispatched and discharged for load restoration considering their mobility and the V2G technology. However, the restoration capabilities of EBs are limited by the transportation system while the ac distribution network can hardly achieve power transfer between lines due to the radial constraint. In this article, a coordinated restoration method of hybrid ac–dc distribution network with EBs is proposed, which has flexible power transfer capability. The control modes of voltage source converters (VSCs) during the postdisaster period as well as the EB restoration capability considering transportation system constraints are analyzed in detail. Then, a bilevel programming model is developed to optimize the network reconfiguration, VSC outputs, and the proposed EBs dispatching scheme simultaneously, in order to achieve a better power transfer capability for load restoration considering their coordination. Simulation studies are performed to verify the proposed method.
