Research on dynamic robust planning method for active distribution network considering correlation

The universality of load subjects in distribution network brings challenges to the reliability of distribution network planning results. In this paper, a two-stage dynamic robust distribution network planning method considering correlation is proposed. The method evaluates the correlation between random variables using the Spearman rank correlation coefficient, and converts the correlated random variables into mutually independent random variables by Cholesky decomposition and independent transformation; expresses the source-load uncertainty by a bounded interval without distribution, and describes the active distribution network planning as a dynamic zero-sum game problem by combining with the two-phase dynamic robust planning; use the Benders decomposition approach to tackle the issue; mathematical simulation is used to confirm the accuracy and efficacy of the method. The results show that the dynamic robustness planning method of active distribution network taking into account the correlation can accurately simulate the operation of active distribution network with uncertain boundaries, which enhances the reliability and economy of the active distribution network planning results.
