Abstract:

Objectives To address the conflicting objectives between “maximizing renewable energy accommodation” and “ensuring power supply reliability” in distributed energy storage systems, a coordinated planning method that balances economic efficiency and resilience is proposed. Methods A dynamic Stackelberg game-driven bi-level planning model is established, integrating Stackelberg game theory with robust optimization to address the cross-level coupling problem between planning and operation. The model coordinates the interests of planning, operation, and market stakeholders to optimize energy storage capacity allocation and charging/discharging strategies, thereby enhancing power supply reliability. Through bi-level optimization, coordination between planning and operation is achieved, and the trade-off between accommodation and supply security is quantified, with Pareto-optimal solutions derived to achieve the lowest investment costs and highest renewable energy accommodation rates. Results A rapid solution algorithm for a bi-level model incorporating multi-objective optimization is developed, and a “dynamic pricing-capacity subsidy” linkage mechanism is proposed. This mechanism effectively balances the conflicting interests among multiple stakeholders in planning and operation. By integrating Stackelberg game theory with robust optimization, the cross-level coupling problem between planning and operation is solved. The simulation cases demonstrate that the proposed bi-level game model significantly outperforms conventional planning methods, validating the long-term economic efficiency of the dynamic game mechanism. Furthermore, a nonlinear trade-off relationship between renewable energy accommodation and power supply security is revealed. Conclusions The bi-level planning model based on accommodation-supply security game coordination can significantly enhance the system’s renewable energy accommodation rate and power supply reliability, while reducing energy storage system investment costs and user electricity costs.
