Decision-Making for Secure and Stable Operation of Power Systems: A Multi-Scenario-Based Optimization Model

In practical power system operation scenarios, extreme natural weather conditions and fluctuations at both the supply and demand sides pose significant challenges to the stable operation and the formulation of operational decision-making for power systems. Particularly in extreme scenarios involving faults, it may lead to power supply–demand imbalances and instability in the power system. To address this issue, this paper proposes a decision-making approach for the secure and stable operation of power systems using a multi-scenario-based optimization model. Initially, a joint scenario set is generated using historical operational data to accurately depict multiple complex scenarios. Building on this, a multi-scenario-based optimization model is constructed, with responses facilitated by flexible adjustment resources within the system. Considering the non-convex and nonlinear characteristics of the model, an improved Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) algorithm is employed to search for the global optimal solution. Finally, a modified IEEE-33 bus test system is utilized to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
