Abstract
Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) are featured by large-scale integration of distributed generation (DG) and energy storage. This paper proposes a novel two-layer co-planning method for optimal placement of inverter-interfaced DG and battery energy storage (BES) units towards enhanced voltage regulation functions in an ADN. The outer-later model determines the planning decision of DG units and the inverter sizing, location, and capacities of BES units, respectively; the inner-layer model corresponds to the operation decision which aims to optimally schedule the BES's charging/discharging and reactive power from inverters for voltage regulation support considering the conservation voltage reduction (CVR). The Taguchi's Orthogonal Array Testing (TOAT) is used to select a small number of scenarios to represent the DG power output uncertainties. The load is represented by a time-varying ZIP load model. The proposed model is tested on a modified IEEE 33-bus radial distribution system and the results to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
