Voltage regulation for active distribution network: A generalized Nash game approach based on locational marginal price

To mitigate the advents effects of distributed generations´ integration on the operation of distribution network and allow for the benefit of multi participants, a voltage regulation method for the active distribution network was proposed. Based on the cost/benefit model of each participant and nodal power market, the method was modeled as a generalized Nash game. Then the game was converted to a norm problem. And the existence of the Nash equilibrium was proved. A practitioner method was also proposed to solve the problem. The simulation was carried out in modified IEEE-33 Bus system with 3 DGs and 3 MGs participating the voltage regulation market. Simulation results show the effectiveness of our method to realize the voltage regulation while taking each participant´ benefit into consideration.
