项目摘要

The electricity distribution grid?the low-voltage line networks that distribute power to end consumers?is about to undergo a major transformation. More and more consumers are becoming ?prosumers,? namely consumers and producers of power at the same time, by installing solar panels (PVs) on their home roofs and by purchasing electric vehicles, which may be used for energy storage. Traditionally, power in distribution grids has flown one way: from the substation to the end consumer. In the new world of prosumers, distribution grids need to accommodate flow in both directions. This is challenging the existing wire and transformer abilities to serve load at acceptable quality levels. Moreover, the increasing number of prosumers is resulting in dramatically higher uncertainty in demand forecasting, which, with further prosumer increase, may prove unsustainable and ultimately threaten the utility companies? operation and business viability. The research from this award will advance the fields of computation and economics as well as the power systems domain, by contributing with novel algorithmic and mechanism design problem formulations and techniques, and with solutions that can enable improved distribution grid planning and operation. In terms of broader impact, this research has the potential to improve aspects of the grid such as planning for increased integration of renewable energy resources, mitigation of risks associated with variability of renewables, better management of congestion in the face of strategic prosumers and ultimately provide for more reliable, cost effective and efficient operation of the grid. The goal of this project is to help the distribution grid and its participants transition from its current functionality of serving mostly traditional consumers, to the future grid that needs to sustainably integrate prosumers, renewables and distributed energy resources, via: (1) Developing simplified mathematical models to solve combinatorial and incentive problems that will enable the future power grid to sustain massive growth in renewables and distributed energy resources; (2) Designing new algorithmic and mechanism design approaches that reduce congestion, and improve the investment and operational efficiency of the grid while further enhancing its reliability; (3) Working with Distribution Utilities for real-world models and operational advice, while facilitating the transfer of research findings to practice. The scope of the project includes (i) distribution network reconfiguration, (ii) distribution system upgrades and (iii) market mechanisms for supply-demand balancing. The research will use methods from approximation algorithms and mechanism design, such as submodular optimization, stochastic combinatorial optimization, and price of anarchy analysis.

配电网？向终端用户输送电力的低压线路网络？即将经历一次重大变革。越来越多的消费者正在成为产消者。通过在屋顶上安装太阳能电池板（pv）和购买可用于储能的电动汽车，同时成为消费者和电力生产者。传统上，配电网中的电力是单向传输的：从变电站到终端用户。在生产消费者的新世界里，配电网需要适应双向流动。这对现有的电线和变压器在可接受的质量水平上服务负载的能力提出了挑战。此外，越来越多的产消者导致需求预测的不确定性大大增加，随着产消者的进一步增加，这种不确定性可能被证明是不可持续的，并最终威胁到公用事业公司。经营和业务可行性。该奖项的研究将推动计算和经济学领域以及电力系统领域的发展，通过提供新颖的算法和机制设计问题公式和技术，以及能够改进配电网规划和运行的解决方案。就更广泛的影响而言，这项研究有可能改善电网的各个方面，如规划增加可再生能源的整合，减轻与可再生能源变化相关的风险，更好地管理面对战略产消者的拥堵，并最终提供更可靠，更具成本效益和更高效的电网运行。该项目的目标是帮助配电网及其参与者从目前主要为传统消费者服务的功能转变为需要可持续整合产消者、可再生能源和分布式能源的未来电网，通过以下方式：(1)开发简化的数学模型来解决组合和激励问题，使未来电网能够维持可再生能源和分布式能源的大规模增长；(2)设计新的算法和机制设计方法，减少拥塞，提高电网的投资和运行效率，同时进一步提高电网的可靠性；(3)与配电公司合作，提供实际模型和操作建议，同时促进研究成果向实践的转移。该项目的范围包括：(1)配电网重新配置；(2)配电网升级；(3)供需平衡的市场机制。研究将使用近似算法和机制设计的方法，如次模优化、随机组合优化和无政府状态价格分析。
