In order to achieve the effective consumption of clean energy and stable operation of the power grid

there are more and more controllable resources in active distribution networks

which also increases the complexity of energy optimization problems in active distribution networks at the same time. For this reason

an active distribution network energy optimization model coordinating distribution network reconfiguration

reactive power compensation equipment

on-load voltage regulator transformers and controllable loads is developed with the objective functions of minimizing economic and environmental costs

minimizing regulation costs and minimizing node voltage deviation. Tests are conducted using the improved IEEE33 system

and the results show that the active distribution network energy optimization method based on the horned lizard optimization algorithm proposed in this study exhibits excellent performance

with an average reduction of 51.62% and 22.16% in terms of voltage deviation and network loss compared to single means control. In the intelligent upgrading and active control transformation of power grids

this method can provide technical support for the consumption of new energy and the stable operation of the power grid.
