Abstract

A distribution network plays an extremely important role in the safe and efficient operation of a power grid. As the core part of a power grid’s operation, a distribution network will have a significant impact on the safety and reliability of residential electricity consumption. it is necessary to actively plan and modify the distribution network’s structure in the power grid, improve the quality of the distribution network, and optimize the planning of the distribution network, so that the network can be fully utilized to meet the needs of electricity consumption. In this paper, a distribution network grid planning algorithm based on the reliability of electricity consumption was completed using ant colony algorithm. For the distribution network structure planning of dual power sources, the parallel ant colony algorithm was used to prove that the premise of parallelism is the interactive process of ant colonies, and the dual power distribution network structure model is established based on the principle of the lowest cost. The artificial ants in the algorithm were compared with real ants in nature, and the basic steps and working principle of the ant colony optimization algorithm was studied with the help of the travelling salesman problem (TSP). Then, the limitations of the ant colony algorithm were analyzed, and an improvement strategy was proposed by using python for digital simulation. The results demonstrated the reliability of model-building and algorithm improvement.
