Abstract
- AbstractIn recent years, modern distribution networks have rapidly evolved toward complex systems due to the increasing level of penetration of distributed generation units, storage systems, and information and communication technologies. In this framework, power quality disturbances such as waveform distortions should be minimized to guarantee optimal system behavior. This article formulates the planning problem of passive filtering systems in a multi-convertor electrical distribution system as a probabilistic multi-objective optimization problem whose input random variables are characterized with probability density functions. A heuristic simplified approach including trade-off analysis issues is applied to solve the planning problem with the aim of optimizing several objectives and meeting proper probabilistic equality and inequality constraints. The approach is able to quickly find solutions on the Pareto frontier that can help the decision-maker to select the final planning alternative for practical operation. The proposed approach is applied to a 17-busbar distribution test system to evidence its effectiveness.
