Hidden Convexity-Based Distributed Operation of Integrated Electricity-Gas Systems
/ Authors
/ Abstract
This letter proposes a hidden convexity-based method to address distributed optimal energy flow (OEF) problems for transmission-level integrated electricity-gas systems. First, we develop a node-wise decoupling method to decompose an OEF problem into multiple OEF subproblems. Then, we propose a hidden convexity-based method to equivalently reformulate nonconvex OEF subproblems as semi-definite programs. This method differs from any approximation and convexification methods that may incur infeasible solutions. Since all OEF subproblems are originally convex or equivalently convexified, we adopt an ADMM to solve the hidden convexity-based distributed OEF problem with convergence analysis. Test results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
