| Summary: | Abstract The integration of large‐scale distributed power sources increases the voltage fluctuation in AC/DC hybrid distribution network (AD‐HDN). Power electronics devices such as photovoltaic (PV) inverters, soft open point (SOP), and voltage source converters (VSCs) can be utilized for voltage/var control (VVC) to alleviate the risk of voltage fluctuation and violation. This paper proposes a distributed optimal VVC method in power electronics dominated AD‐HDN. Firstly, the reactive power and voltage characteristics of PV inverters, SOP, and VSCs are analysed, and an optimal VVC optimization model for AD‐HDN to minimize node voltage deviation, PV curtailment, and network loss is proposed. Then, the second‐order cone (SOC) relaxation technique is used to re‐formulate the model into a convex optimization model. A distributed optimal VVC framework based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is constructed. Based on the residual balance principle and relaxation technique, an accelerated ADMM method is further proposed to solve the proposed model. Finally, case studies are conducted on the IEEE 33‐node and 85‐node systems to verify the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method. |
