The regional power system is an essential mechanism to solve the unbalanced distribution of resources and achieve more efficient resource allocation. In this paper, an optimal scheduling model of the regional power system is developed, to maximize social welfare and minimize clean energy electricity curtailment. This model can realize the optimal allocation of power generation resources and the maximum accommodation of multiple types of clean energy, by minimizing the sum of the electricity purchase cost and the dynamic penalty cost of clean energy. Meanwhile, it considers the modeling of the key AC/DC hybrid tie-line in the regional power grid. To this end, the modeling methods of power transmitted by AC/DC tie-line, the net loss of the tie-line, the stair-like operation of the DC tie-line power, the operation constraints of the DC tie-line are proposed. Then a simulation example study is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the model, which proves that the regional power system can stimulate the resource optimization potential better than the provincial power system.
