With the continuous improvement of the penetration rate of renewable energy and the continuous integration of advanced network control technology and measurement equipment, the traditional distribution network is developing into an active distribution network (ADN) with the characteristics of flexible scheduling control, high user interaction, and high energy utilization. This article fully considers the economy of the overall operation of the distribution network, and proposes a hierarchical optimization economic dispatch method for active distribution networks based on the alternating direction multiplier method (ADMM). Firstly, a hierarchical optimization scheduling model of active distribution network is established with the goal of minimizing the overall operating cost of the distribution network. The alternating direction multiplier method algorithm is decomposed into upper and lower layers to solve. The upper layer is optimized with the goal of minimizing the overall operating cost of the distribution network, and the lower layer considers the distribution network. The distributed photovoltaic and energy storage units connected to the internal nodes of the network are optimized with the goal of minimizing the local energy storage operation cost and power purchase cost. The upper and lower layers, through the exchange of limited boundary information, iterate each other until the convergence conditions are met, and the optimal solution is obtained. Finally, a design example is tested to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheduling method.
