Abstract

This study explores the intricate challenge of energy demand uncertainty in the design of Photovoltaics and Energy Storage integrated Flexible Direct Current Distribution (PEDF) systems. Our objective is to examine the impact of different scenario generation methods on PEDF system optimization. We compare four approaches, including probabilistic techniques based on Monte Carlo simulation, Latin Hypercube Sampling for base scenario sampling, and a simulation-based method using building performance modeling. We evaluate these approaches using the Independent Scenario Optimization (ISO) and Two-Stage Stochastic Programming (TSSP) models, aiming to minimize the annual total cost within PEDF systems while addressing uncertainties. Our findings shed light on the optimal PEDF design under uncertainty, offering valuable insights for future decision-making in dynamic energy systems.
