Abstract

Due to the uncertainty of distributed energy resources (DERs), the effectiveness of voltage control in distribution networks faces significant challenges. Aiming at this problem, a novel distributed stochastic model predictive control (DSMPC) scheme was proposed in this paper to achieve voltage regulation considering the uncertainty of DERs. In the proposed control scheme, based on the photovoltaic (PV) prediction error model, multiple operation scenarios are selected to characterize the uncertainty of PV generation. Then, based on these selected scenarios, a DSMPC approach is developed to minimize the cost of control actions by coordinating the PV inverters and battery energy storage systems. Simulation involving the modified IEEE 34-bus verified that the proposed method can work effectively under the uncertainty of DERs and achieves a comparable control performance with a well-designed centralized controller.
