Service Restoration of Distribution Networks Using Scheduling of Multiple Distributed Resources

چکیده مقاله

Abstract— The service restoration (SR) problem has always been one of the most challenging issues in the operation and automation of distribution networks. With the increasing development of the distribution network and the introduction of various technologies and tools, and the need for automation of distribution networks, solving this problem requires much more efficient and faster solutions. This paper proposes a new method to solve the SR problem. The distribution network in this study has many distributed resources including mobile power sources (MPS), distributed local generators, and repair crew that are scheduled simultaneously. Also, the service restoration problem in this paper is modeled as a MILP problem and solved by mathematical solvers. This ensures the achievement of optimal and fast solutions. The proposed method was used on a 33-bus test network and its efficiency was proven.
