This article proposes the influence of GIL on energization overvoltage. Parameter characteristics for GIL are presented and analyzed in detail, which are different from that of overhead line (OHL). Thus, with GIL applied to transmission system, the traditional methods for analysis of energization overvoltage could not be used. However, amplitude of energization overvoltage and voltage attenuation speed can be simply discussed only for a fully-GIL or a fully-OHL. Analysis on how the length, ratio and location of GIL effect the energization overvoltage, need to be obtained based on simulation results. The study includes various sensitivity analyses to find out the impact of transmission line parameters on overvoltage. By the statistical analysis, it has been discovered that energization overvoltage of a hybrid OHL-GIL circuit are lower than those of a fully-OHL circuit with the same transmission lengths. There is no evident changing regularity of overvoltage in different locations of GIL. The attenuation speed of a hybrid OHL-GIL circuit is lower than those of a fully-OHL and fully-GIL.","PeriodicalId":260947,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power System Technology (POWERCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129838994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking the difference in charging behaviors into consideration, three charging scenarios are generated and then charging load profiles are obtained. Based on the above study, the impact of PEV on multi-level distribution networks is estimated. The results show that it will cause the largest load demand if PEVs charge at home every day after the last trip, especially on a weekday. In addition, it’s recommended that the charging load connects to the front of the feeder, which leads to less voltage drop.

The overall goal is to follow the regulation signals sent by the system operator in the real time regulation market by controlling the EVs in the parking lot. To achieve this, the reinforcement learning algorithm is employed to optimize the charge and discharge strategy of the EVs, so that the aggregator optimally allocates the regulation power and the baseline charging power to EVs to respond to the regulation signals for the best regulation performance.

After balancing datasets, the data are used as eigenvectors of training random forests. Secondly, combining with OOB(out-of-bag), one of evaluation indicators, adjustment of random forest parameters in a closed-loop is used to construct cost-optimized random forest classifier.
