Abstract

The digitalization of distribution networks intensifies the coupling between cyber and physical networks. Edge computing devices offer significant flexibility for organizing distributed energy resources and enabling multi-area coordinated control, demonstrating considerable potential to enhance the power restoration capability of active distribution networks. This paper proposes a power restoration method based on edge computing technology, which accounts for the interdependencies between cyber and physical systems during the restoration process. For the cyber system, a self-organization method for edge computing devices is proposed to establish a dual-layer emergency communication network, supporting strategy generation for power restoration. For the physical system, an ADMM-based solving method is developed to achieve rapid solution of the restoration problem in a distributed manner by pre-fixing binary variables. Case studies are conducted on the IEEE 123-node test system and the Taiwan 94-node test system, highlighting the advantages of the proposed method in terms of restoration speed and effectiveness.
