Abstract
Evaluating the impact related to stochastic wind generation and generic storage on economic dispatch in distribution system operation is an important issue in power systems. This paper presents the analysis of the impacts of high wind power and storage participation on a distribution system over a period of 24 h using grid reconfiguration for electrical distribution system (EDS) radial operation. In order to meet this objective, a stochastic mixed integer linear programming (SMILP) is proposed, where the balance between load and generation has to be satisfied minimizing the expected cost during the operation period. The model also considers distributed generation (DG) represented by wind scenarios and conventional generation, bus loads represented through a typical demand profile, and generic storage. A case study provides results for a weakly meshed distribution network with 70 buses, describing in a comprehensive manner the effects of stochastic wind scenarios and storage location on distribution network parameters, voltage, substation behavior as well as power losses, and the expected cost of the system.
