Abstract

To enhance the efficiency of renewable energy consumption and reduce reliance on fossil fuels, the study addresses the challenges of distributed photovoltaic and energy storage integration in distribution networks, such as voltage fluctuations, safety risks, and insufficient converter considerations to the distribution network. Through a four-dimensional comprehensive evaluation system including grid-strength quantification indicators like the generalized short-circuit ratio, a multi-objective mathematical model-based performance evaluation system using an analytic hierarchy process and criteria importance through the intercriteria correlation method has been established, and an optimization model for the configuration of photovoltaic and energy storage equipment is optimized. The study innovatively proposes a multi-type synchronous control framework enabling dynamic GFL/GFM converter selection at different nodes, overcoming traditional single-control limitations. The simulation results show that the proposed optimal configuration scheme can effectively improve the operating states and reduce the energy consumption of the distribution network.
