The use of photovoltaic reactive power and energy storage active power can solve the problems of voltage violation, network loss, and three-phase unbalance caused by photovoltaic connection to low-voltage distribution networks. However, the three-phase four-wire structure of the low-voltage distribution network brings difficulties to power flow calculation. In order to achieve photovoltaic utilization through optimal power flow, a photovoltaic-energy storage collaborative control method for low-voltage distribution networks based on the optimal power flow of a three-phase four-wire system is proposed. Considering the amplitude and phase angle of voltage and current, a three-phase four-wire node admittance matrix was used to establish the network topology of the low-voltage distribution network. Also, to minimize the network loss, the three-phase unbalance and voltage deviation. a multi-objective optimization model based on three-phase four-wire network topology was established considering the voltage constraints, reverse power flow constraints and neutral line current constraints. Through improving the node admittance matrix and model convexity, the complexity of solving the problem is reduced. The CPLEX algorithm package was used to solve the problem. Based on a 21-bus three-phase four-wire low-voltage distribution network, a 24-h multi-period simulation was undertaken to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
