Abstract
The advancement of grid technology with high integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) has led to dynamic changes in the distribution network with a substantial impact on the transmission network. With this impact of DER integration, separate optimal power flow (OPF) analysis in transmission and distribution (TD) networks is not always adequate for the optimal operation of the power system. Hence, this paper proposes a coordinated TD-OPF co-optimization method with second-order cone programming (SOCP) to address this challenge. This co-optimization method provides a feasible solution for an integrated TD system, bridging the gap between transmission and distribution network challenges with renewable-based DERs through data exchange between the transmission and distribution networks. Moreover, each distribution network employs a distributed OPF (D-OPF) algorithm, which supports decentralized operation, thereby enhancing the reliability and scalability of the proposed OPF model for large TD networks. The goal is to reduce the overall system planning expenses, optimizing the microgrids in distribution networks and the major generation units within the transmission network. The efficacy of the proposed TD-OPF co-optimization approach has been verified through numerical analysis.
