Abstract

The “Reverse power flow” (RPF) behavior of distributed photovoltaics (DPV) promotes the new energy consumption and has a negative impact on the adaptability of the distribution network (DN). Researching and constructing a DN adaptability assessment model considering the DPV's RPF behavior is an important method to explore the weaknesses of DN adaptability from the perspective of management decision-making, and then propose improvement solutions. Firstly, this paper constructs a set of hierarchical DN adaptability assessment index systems from the three dimensions of security, economy and low carbon. Secondly, the combination of ordered weighted averaging improved the Analytic Hierarchy Process and the Entropy weight method is used to weigh the indicators. Then, an assessment method based on the combination of credibility theory and cloud model is proposed to solve the ambiguity and randomness in the evaluation process. Finally, the model was applied practically in the DN of Qiantuan Village in Beijing, and the adaptation of the DN is compared and analyzed under three scenarios: DPV not grid-connected, grid-connected and fully local consumption, grid-connected and RPF behavior. The results show that the adaptability levels of Qiantan Village DN are classified as “Medium”, “Good”, and “Good”, with scores of 78.839, 86.312, and 88.287, respectively, under the three different scenarios. Furthermore, regarding the first-level indicators, the DPV's RPF behavior reduces the security of the DN but improves the adaptability in general. This paper's research can accurately locate the weak points based on reflecting the level of DN adaptability, thereby providing a reference for the formulation of a DN adaptability improvement plan and the construction of a clean and low-carbon DN.
