Active Distribution Networks Operation Within a Distribution Market Environment

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Sustainable Development in Energy Systems

Abstract

This chapter proposes a novel method for the operation of active distribution networks within a distribution market environment taking into account multi-configuration of wind turbines. Multi-configuration multi-scenario market-based optimal power flow is used to maximise the social welfare considering uncertainties related to wind speed and load demand. Scenario-based approach is used to model the uncertainties. The method assesses the impact of multiple wind turbine configurations on the amount of wind power that can be injected into the grid and the distribution-locational marginal prices throughout the network. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated with 16-bus UK generic distribution system.
