Optimal Operation Strategy of Power Grids Integrated with High-Capacity Grid-Supporting Storage Devices Based on Trajectory Sensitivity Analysis and Improved Chaotic PSO Algorithm
High penetration levels of renewable energy and power electronic apparatus create prominent obstacles for novel power grids, which mainly manifested as inadequate system inertia and a deteriorated stability margin. To overcome such drawbacks, this research develops an operational control method to maintain safe and steady grid operation with large-capacity grid-forming energy storage connected to the system. This paper first builds a dynamic voltage model covering grid-forming energy storage, distributed renewable generators, and distribution network frameworks. Then it explores how different control parameter settings of grid-forming storage affect dynamic voltage regulation capabilities under distinct R-L ratio scenarios. Since the correlation between energy storage control variables and voltage regulation features is highly nonlinear and complicated, trajectory sensitivity analysis is adopted to linearize these coupling constraints, which are further embedded into the power system security operation mathematical model. A chaotic particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is used to solve the constructed optimization model. Simulation tests on a modified IEEE 33-bus test system ultimately prove that the proposed method is reliable and practically applicable. Simulation results on the modified IEEE 33-bus test system demonstrate that the proposed strategy restricts grid voltage fluctuation rate to only 2.41%, raises renewable energy accommodation rate up to 98.4%, and achieves a 30.6% reduction in overall system operation cost compared to traditional energy storage configuration schemes, which fully verifies the outstanding effectiveness and practical engineering feasibility of the proposed method.
