Abstract
Natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy can seriously disrupt the power grids. To increase the resilience of an electric distribution system against natural disasters, this paper proposes a resilient distribution network planning problem (RDNP) to coordinate the hardening and distributed generation resource allocation with the objective of minimizing the system damage. The problem is formulated as a two-stage robust optimization model. Hardening and distributed generation resource placement are considered in the distribution network planning. A multi-stage and multi-zone based uncertainty set is designed to capture the spatial and temporal dynamics of an uncertain natural disaster as an extension to the…
