Abstract

As the coupling between power distribution systems (PDSs) and district heating systems (DHSs) becomes tighter, it is critical to develop a coordinated strategy for load restoration in integrated electric and heating systems (IEHSs) after natural catastrophes. Similar to PDS reconfiguration, DHSs can modify network topology by remotely operating the ties and sectionalizing valves. A coordinated reconfiguration with soft open points (SOPs) is proposed in this paper for resilience-oriented restoration in IEHSs, which mitigates the fault propagation during fault isolation and explores the flexibility of network topology variation with SOPs for load restoration. To guarantee the privacy of electric and heating systems, we propose an adaptive alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), which divides the original problem into PDS and DHS subproblems. The proposed algorithm can intelligently dispatch SOPs and switches in the PDS sub-problem and valves in the DHS subproblem. Comprehensive case studies are carried out to illustrate the effectiveness of coordinated reconfiguration with SOPs for load restoration and verify the proposed algorithm. When considering coordinated reconfiguration with SOPs under the PDS fault scenario, the resilience metrics value increases by 9.6% compared to only PDS reconfiguration.
