Abstract

This study introduces adaptive robust optimization (ARO) and adaptive robust stochastic optimization (ARSO) approaches to address long- and short-term uncertainties in the optimal sizing and placement of distributed energy resources in distribution networks. ARO models uncertainty using a budget of uncertainty (BoU), while ARSO distinguishes long-term (LT) demand (via BoU) and short-term (ST) photovoltaic generation (via scenarios). Adapted Benders decomposition and column-and-constraint generation algorithms are presented to tackle the tri-level optimization challenges. The experiments consider a modified version of the IEEE 33-bus system to test these two approaches and also compare them with traditional robust and stochastic optimization models. The results indicate that distinguishing between LT and ST uncertainties using a hybrid formulation, such as ARSO, yields a solution closer to the optimal solution under perfect information than ARO.
