The randomness and fluctuation of large-scale distributed photovoltaic (PV) power will affect the stable operation of the distribution network. The energy storage system (ESS) can effectively suppress the power output fluctuation of the PV system and reduce the PV curtailment rate through charging/discharging states. In order to improve the operation capability of the distribution network and PV consumption rate, an optimal multi-objective strategy is proposed based on PV power prediction. First, the back propagation (BP) neural network with an improved genetic algorithm (GA) is used to predict PV power output. Furthermore, an adaptive variability function is added to the GA to improve the prediction accuracy. Then, the distribution network model containing distributed PV and the ESS is constructed. The optimal object contains network power loss, voltage deviation, and PV consumption. The model is solved based on the improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm of Pareto optimality. The probabilistic amplitude is adopted to encode the particles for avoiding local optimal. Finally, the proposed optimal strategy is verified by the IEEE 33-bus distribution network. The results show that the proposed strategy has an obvious effect on reducing the network power loss and voltage deviation, as well as improving the PV consumption rate.
