【 摘 要 】

In recent years, distributed generation (DG) and microgrid develop rapidly in distribution network. With the increase of its penetration, the distribution network is faced with many operation challenges such as voltage violation and voltage flicker, etc. Thus, it is urgent to perform reasonable reactive power planning and optimize the operation strategy of reactive equipment to handle the arisen problems in the distribution network. This paper puts up with a reactive power configuration method, optimizing the operation of shunt capacitor bank (C) and static var generator (SVG). The genetic algorithm (GA) is applied to solve the model. It is proved by the modified IEEE33 system that the proposed model could effectively improve the voltage eligibility rate, reduce the grid loss and achieve better economy, which provides the reference for the reactive power optimization configuration for the future distribution network. The method could be applied in the situation of the integration of microgrid with large capacity generation with randomness.
