Abstract

In recent years, disasters caused by extreme weather conditions have caused irreparable damage to power systems, which has attracted the attention of planners to increase the resilience of these systems. In line with the objectives of this issue, this paper introduces a two-stage planning based on the resilience model to design solar panels, microturbines, and fuel cells in a multi-energy carrier microgrid in order to increase the resilience of the system against high-impact events. The proposed framework is formulated as a second-order integer mixed programming that makes investment decisions in the first stage and optimizes the operating variables in the second stage to enhance the resilience of the system. An integrated electricity and gas model is used to enhance the readers’ understanding of the mutual interactions between electrical and thermal energy; therefore, the fuel availability and price of the microturbine are explicitly formulated and evaluated. A linear diagram of 14-bus micro-energy grids is used to investigate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed model. Numerical comparative studies show that the proposed method helps the micro-grid operator to identify optimal solutions to enhance the resilience of the power system against extreme events.
