Abstract

As renewable energy penetration increases, the volatility and uncertainty of photovoltaic generation and load demand pose significant challenges to power-system stability. This paper proposes a data-driven probabilistic load-flow method that employs a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to model uncertainties in photovoltaic generation and load demand. Cumulative quantity analysis is then applied to conduct probabilistic load-flow studies, quantifying the impact of these uncertainties on the power system. Building upon this foundation, a two-layer optimization model is constructed to optimize the siting, capacity, and operational strategies of energy storage systems. Experimental results demonstrate that this method effectively reduces the probability of voltage-limit violations, ensures the reliability of supply–demand balance, and enhances system stability and reliability even under fluctuating PV generation and load-demand conditions.
