摘要
Dynamic operating envelopes (DOEs) are increasingly used to publish time-varying export limits that keep distribution networks within operational limits. Purely technical DOE allocation, however, can systematically privilege electrically favorable prosumers, while embedding fairness directly into a single-period optimal power flow (OPF) objective mixes network feasibility, equity and efficiency in a way that obscures the cost of fairness. This paper proposes a two-stage, multi-period framework that addresses both of these. Initially, a technical distributed OPF computes network-feasible export envelopes. The subsequent stage then applies a dynamic aggregate export budget and redistributes capacity through cumulative proportional fairness, limiting the additional curtailment by an admissible efficiency budget. The resulting fair DOEs are treated as first-stage decisions, while battery storage provides scenario-dependent recourse under demand and renewable uncertainty. The operational problem is solved by a calibrated regional alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) on a lossless LinDistFlow model and independently validated using AC power flow. We observe a trade-off between increases in curtailment \emph{versus} improvements on fairness, as expected, reaching Jain fairness indices close to unity. Results show that considering both storage (which alleviates curtailment impact) and multi-period fairness (which increases curtailment) is an interesting approach for modern DOE design, which in turn requires a multi-period, co-designed approach.

Fair Dynamic Operating Envelopes using Distributed Multi-Period Optimal Power Flow and Jain Index for Active Distribution Networks
Dynamic operating envelopes (DOEs) are increasingly used to publish time-varying export limits that keep distribution networks within operational limits. Purely technical DOE allocation, however, can systematically privilege electrically favorable prosumers, while embedding fairness directly into a single-period optimal power flow (OPF) objective mixes network feasibility, equity and efficiency in a way that obscures the cost of fairness. This paper proposes a two-stage, multi-period framework that addresses both of these. Initially, a technical distributed OPF computes network-feasible export envelopes. The subsequent stage then applies a dynamic aggregate export budget and redistributes capacity through cumulative proportional fairness, limiting the additional curtailment by an admissible efficiency budget. The resulting fair DOEs are treated as first-stage decisions, while battery storage provides scenario-dependent recourse under demand and renewable uncertainty. The operational problem is solved by a calibrated regional alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) on a lossless LinDistFlow model and independently validated using AC power flow.
