Random Fuzzy Power Flow Analysis for Power System considering the Uncertainties of Renewable Energy and Load Demands.

Due to the strong uncertainties of renewable energy and load demands, the new type of power systems is facing severe challenges in terms of generation control and load dispatch. Considering the uncertainties of the penetrated renewable energy and diversified load demands, this paper proposes a random fuzzy power flow analysis method (RFPF) to exactly depict the impact on the various flows of power systems. In the RFPF, the random fuzzy models of wind turbine generators, photovoltaic generators, and load demands are established utilizing the stochastic probability functions and fuzzy interval to reveal the uncertainties with high precision. Afterwards, the random fuzzy mean value is developed as an index of accuracy, and the fuzzy number of the output variables is extracted under the 95% confidence level. Furthermore, the proposed RFPF model is executed by applying a three-point estimate method (3PE) to figure out the corresponding power flow of the power system, costing less computation burden compared with the Monte Carlo simulation. Simulation studies conducted on the IEEE-33 system verifies the accuracy of the RFPF and the efficiency of the 3PE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
