Considering energy storage resources and DGs in distribution system restoration

In this paper, a load restoration framework is proposed in distribution network, which includes distributed generations and energy storage resources. In this framework, dynamic programming method (DP) has been used as a tool to optimize the distribution system restoration problem. The time and sequence of the feeders (loads) of the distribution network are considered as the optimal steps and the optimal answer to the problem of optimization of the dynamic programming method after the global outage has occurred. The proposed method considers the priority of network loads according to its importance in load restoration problem. At the end, the proposed method is implemented in a real network and its efficient and practical inference is derived from the results.
