Abstract
This paper proposes a data-driven distributionally robust chance constrained real-time dispatch (DRCC-RTD) considering renewable generation forecasting errors. The proposed DRCC-RTD model minimizes the expected quadratic cost function and guarantees that the two-sided chance constraints are satisfied for any distribution in the ambiguity set. The Wasserstein-distance-based ambiguity set, which is a family of distributions centered at an empirical distribution, is employed to hedge against data perturbations. By applying the reformulation linearization technique (RLT) to relax the quadratic constraints of the worst-case costs and constructing linear reformulations of the DRCCs, the proposed DRCC-RTD model is cast into a deterministic linear programming (LP) problem, which can be solved efficiently by off-the-shelf solvers. Case studies are carried out on a 6-bus system and the IEEE 118-bus system to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.
