Abstract

The smart electric grid in the United States is one of the largest and most complex cyber-physical systems (CPS) in the world and contains considerable uncertainties. Proba-bilistic optimal power ow (OPF) analysis is required to ac-complish the electrical and economic operational goals. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to accelerate the computation of probabilistic OPF for large-scale smart grids through network reduction (NR). Cumulant-based method and Gram-Charlier expansion theory are used to effciently obtain the statistics of system states. We develop a more accurate linear mapping method to compute the unknown cumulants. Our method speeds up the computation by up to 4.57 and can improve around 30% accuracy when Hessian matrix is ill-conditioned compared to the previous approach.
