Multi-agent cluster control of voltage in wind–photovoltaic–storage integrated distribution networks
摘要
To address the voltage limit violation problems caused by the large-scale integration of renewable energy into distribution networks, a multi-agent cluster control strategy for voltage regulation in wind–photovoltaic–storage distribution networks is proposed. Firstly, based on a composite index comprising electrical distance, active power regulation capability and reactive power regulation capability, an improved clustering algorithm is employed to divide the modified IEEE 33-bus distribution network system which integrates wind turbine, photovoltaic and storage into clusters. Each cluster is then treated as an individual agent, with photovoltaic inverters, wind turbine, and distributed energy storage within the cluster serving as control devices. The Double Deep Q-Network algorithm within a multi-agent deep reinforcement learning framework is then utilized for cluster voltage control, with the objective of minimizing voltage deviation. Finally, the voltage control results of the modified IEEE 33-bus distribution network system are analyzed under different scenarios. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method improves the optimization performance by 5.89% and 16.13% compared to the DQN algorithm and the particle swarm optimization algorithm, respectively.
