Equilibrium Allocation of ESSs in Multiple UIESs-Accessed Distribution Networks Considering the Resilience and Economic Benefits

Recently, extreme disasters considered as high-impact low-probability (HILP) events have caused severe power outages. User-level integrated energy systems (UIESs) is being widely formed and accessed to distribution networks (DNs), which has the potential to enhance the resilience of DNs. Therefore, multiple UIESs-accessed DNs against such HILP events are required in order to enhance the resilience of the distribution network. In this paper, from a resilience-oriented perspective, an equilibrium allocation method of multiple energy storage systems (ESSs) is proposed considering the planning of distribution network with multiple UIES for improving the resilience of distribution network. Firstly, the topology and operation modes of multiple UIESs-accessed DNs are analyzed. Secondly, a quantitative evaluation method of UIES power support capability is formulated, in which the differences in type, quantity and scale of coupling equipment in different scenarios are considered. An allocation model of multiple ESSs is then established using the Nash equilibrium method to balance the distribution network resilience and economics. Finally, simulation tests verify the superiority of the proposed equilibrium allocation model of multiple ESSs compared with other resilience enhancement strategies.
