Optimization Model and Algorithm for Smart Distribution Grid Maintenance Scheduling

Abstract:

According to the actual situation of maintenance scheduling for distribution network, with the development of smart distribution grid, a maintenance scheduling optimization model which aims at taking the minimum electricity quantity caused by maintenance interruption without violating any constraints is proposed in this paper. Considering the actual situation, the temporary maintenance application and the maintenance status of equipment (outage or charged) are proposed in the objective function. In terms of constraints, leading in emergency degree constraint makes it possible that the maintenance scheduling can be sequenced according to orders of priority, which conforms to the development of smart distribution grid better. Then by use of improved genetic algorithm the optimization problem is solved. The test results show that the proposed model and algorithm can effectively solve the maintenance scheduling optimization problem.
