This paper proposes a coordinated active–reactive power optimization model for an active distribution network with energy storage systems, where the active and reactive resources are handled simultaneously. The model aims to minimize the power losses, the operation cost, and the voltage deviation of the distribution network. In particular, the reactive power capabilities of distributed generators and energy storage systems are fully utilized to minimize power losses and improve voltage profiles. The uncertainties pertaining to the forecasted values of renewable energy sources are modelled by scenario-based stochastic programming. The second-order cone programming relaxation method is used to deal with the nonlinear power flow constraints and transform the original mixed integer nonlinear programming problem into a tractable mixed integer second-order cone programming model, thus the difficulty of problem solving is significantly reduced. The 33-bus and 69-bus distribution networks are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Simulation results show that the proposed coordinated optimization approach helps improve the economic operation for active distribution network while improving the system security significantly.
