| Summary: | The large-scale application of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology introduces mutually exclusive constraints (MEC) into the power grid planning, which deepens the complexity of power grid planning. The MECs decrease the planning efficiency and effectiveness of the conventional method. This paper proposes a novel hybrid alternating current (AC)/direct current (DC) receiving end grid planning method with MECs in AC/DC lines. The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is utilized to model the MECs in candidate lines and then the detailed planning model, in which mutually exclusive candidate lines are described by mutually exclusive variable and constraint sets. Additionally, the proposed planning model takes the hybrid AC/DC power system stability into consideration by introducing the multi-infeed short circuit ratio (MISCR). After establishing the hybrid AC/DC receiving end grid planning model with MECs, the backtracking search algorithm (BSA) is used to solve the optimal planning. The effectiveness of the proposed hybrid AC/DC grid planning method with MECs is verified by case studies.
