Start-up Sequence Optimization of Units and HVDC for Hybrid Multi-Infeed DC Receiving Systems

Aiming at the problem of unit restoration optimization of hybrid multi-infeed direct current (HMIDC) system, an optimization method for start-up sequence of units and HVDC in HMIDC receiving system with LCC-HVDC and VSC-HVDC participation is proposed. Firstly, the interaction between AC and DC systems in the restoration process is analyzed. Then, the multi-objective optimization model of start-up sequence considering HVDC start-up constraints and operational stability constraints is established. And an algorithm based on fast non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) for solving the above model is designed. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by using IEEE 39 nodes system as an example.
