Among the various major components of the electric power system, distribution grids have not received a lot of attention from the research community. Today's distribution grids are experiencing a significant transformation due to an increasing amount of smart electric loads and distributed energy resources (DERs), such as electric vehicles, rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and energy storage. Growing penetration of DERs increase the power injection variability in distribution grids, leading to power quality issues such as voltage unbalance and voltage variations. The intermittent nature of these DERs and load forecasting errors can also increase uncertainty in distribution grids. Furthermore, DERs are managed by different entities such as distribution utility or third-party aggregators whose objectives are conflicting with each other. This makes it challenging to precisely control DER behavior to optimize grid operations. This work introduces an optimization-based approach to improve power quality in unbalanced distribution grids and effectively exploit the flexibility offered by DERs. DERs such as solar PV systems with power electronic inverters can be employed as a cost-effective solution to provide reactive power support and minimize voltage violations and unbalance. We first develop a three-phase optimal power flow (OPF) formulation to identify DER control actions that improve power quality. A major challenge to efficiently solving the three-phase OPF is computation time. To reduce computational complexity, three linear power flow models which are well suited to analyze voltage unbalance are utilized as part of a successive approximation approach to provide good quality solutions that are AC feasible. The OPF formulation is then extended to examine the impact of uncertainty on distribution grid operations by leveraging a chance-constrained optimization approach. By using this method, we identify a set of DER control actions that can be utilized across a range of highly uncertain scenarios. Finally, the challenges of harnessing the flexibility offered by DERs, which are controlled by different entities in the grid, is addressed. A bilevel optimization approach is proposed to determine the collective DER and load flexibility in the network. Our case studies demonstrate that the resulting aggregate power flexibility range can help reduce burdens on transmission system resources while maintaining acceptable power quality in distribution grids.

Recent fire-related damages and fatalities caused by high-voltage transmission lines coupled with dry weather are costing billions of dollars annually, with the only practical solution being de-energizing the lines and disrupting the power supply to millions of customers. The recent advances in the distribution grid, including the integration of distributed generation (DGs), distributed energy resources (DERs), and microgrids, provide potential means to improve the grid's operational resilience. An advanced decision-support system is needed to plan and manage grid operations by proactively managing the grid's variable, uncertain, and distributed resources. Consequently, resilient operational solutions for power distribution grids have drawn significant attention. These applications range from leveraging recent advances in smart grid technology, such as remote control capabilities and DER integration, to enabling advanced grid services such as frequency and voltage support for the bulk grid and resilient operations through intentional islanding to support critical services during disruptions.This monograph provides a much-needed primer on optimization methods used in active power distribution systems for advanced operations, with the goal of benefiting researchers working in this field. The graduate students and young researchers working in the area of DERs and distribution systems operations need a background on not only topics related to power distribution engineering but also a wide variety of interdisciplinary subjects to address the upcoming challenges. The monograph will benefit a diverse pool of researchers and industry practitioners by building the necessary background on modeling the distribution systems (with DERs) and system optimization methods for provisioning grid services.

This text is an introduction to the use of control in distributed power generation. It shows the reader how reliable control can be achieved so as to realize the potential of small networks of diverse energy sources, either singly or in coordination, for meeting concerns of energy cost, energy security and environmental protection. The book demonstrates how such microgrids, interconnecting groups of generating units and loads within a local area, can be an effective means of balancing electrical supply and demand. It takes advantage of the ability to connect and disconnect microgrids from the main body of the power grid to give flexibility in response to special events, planned or unplanned. In order to capture the main opportunities for expanding the power grid and to present the plethora of associated open problems in control theory Control and Optimization of Distributed Generation Systems is organized to treat three key themes, namely: system architecture and integration; modelling and analysis; and communications and control. Each chapter makes use of examples and simulations and appropriate problems to help the reader study. Tools helpful to the reader in accessing the mathematical analysis presented within the main body of the book are given in an appendix. Control and Optimization of Distributed Generation Systems will enable readers new to the field of distributed power generation and networked control, whether experienced academic migrating from another field or graduate student beginning a research career, to familiarize themselves with the important points of the control and regulation of microgrids. It will also be useful for practising power engineers wishing to keep abreast of changes in power grids necessitated by the diversification of generating methods.

This brief focuses on stochastic energy optimization for distributed energy resources in smart grids. Along with a review of drivers and recent developments towards distributed energy resources, this brief presents research challenges of integrating millions of distributed energy resources into the grid. The brief then proposes a novel three-level hierarchical architecture for effectively integrating distributed energy resources into smart grids. Under the proposed hierarchical architecture, distributed energy resource management algorithms at the three levels (i.e., smart home, smart neighborhood, and smart microgrid) are developed in this brief based on stochastic optimization that can handle the involved uncertainties in the system.

This book addresses different algorithms and applications based on the theory of multiobjective goal attainment optimization. In detail the authors show as the optimal asset of the energy hubs network which (i) meets the loads, (ii) minimizes the energy costs and (iii) assures a robust and reliable operation of the multicarrier energy network can be formalized by a nonlinear constrained multiobjective optimization problem. Since these design objectives conflict with each other, the solution of such the optimal energy flow problem hasn’t got a unique solution and a suitable trade off between the objectives should be identified. A further contribution of the book consists in presenting real-world applications and results of the proposed methodologies developed by the authors in three research projects recently completed and characterized by actual implementation under an overall budget of about 23 million €.
