Dispatch model of active distribution network based on demand response

Abstract

As one of the resources of peak load shifting, demand response has played an important role in active distribution networks(ADNs). A bi-level dispatch model of ADNs based on demand response(DR) is introduced in this paper. The upper level of the model is the dynamic optimal power flow in the ADN considering the incentive-based DR while the lower level is the dispatch of the price-based DR. An improved IEEE 30-bus system is used to test the model. Simulation results show that the proposed model can reduce the cost of ADNs system.
