A hierarchical dispatch structure for distribution network pricing

摘要: This paper presents a hierarchical dispatch structure for efficient distribution network pricing. The coordination problem in the context of operators are addressed. We formulate decentralized generation into bilevel optimization which main operator and connected optimize their costs two levels. By using Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions Fortuny-Amat McCarl linearization, is reduced mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem. Equivalence between proposed centralized proved. model solved GAMS platform. IEEE 14-bus meshed 13-node radial to be an illustrative example offering numerical results. Three scenarios representing distributed (DGs) successive development stages analyzed. Hierarchical achieves same results as traditional three considered scenarios. Distribution nodal prices obtained. Intrinsic advantages reduce complexity with increasing DGs penetration provide locational marginal (DLMP).
