The output of renewable energy sources is characterized by random fluctuations, and considering scenarios with a stochastic renewable energy output is of great significance for energy storage planning. Existing scenario generation methods based on random sampling fail to account for the volatility and temporal characteristics of renewable energy output. To enhance photovoltaic (PV) absorption capacity and reduce the cost of planning distributed PV and energy storage systems, a scenario-driven optimization configuration strategy for energy storage in high-proportion renewable energy power systems is proposed, incorporating demand-side response and bidirectional dynamic reconfiguration strategies into the planning model. Firstly, this paper designs a time series scenario generation method for renewable energy output based on a Deep Belief Network (DBN) to fully explore the characteristics of renewable energy output. Then, considering various cost factors of PV and energy storage, a capacity determination model is established by analyzing the relationship between annual planning costs, PV connection capacity, energy storage installation capacity, and power. Case studies are conducted on the IEEE-33 node system to compare and analyze the impact of active distribution network strategies on the planning results of PV and energy storage equipment under different scenarios. The results show that by incorporating demand-side response and bidirectional dynamic reconfiguration strategies into the active distribution network, the selection and sizing of PV energy storage can significantly improve the PV absorption capacity, achieve the lowest planning cost, and address the issue of low voltage levels during periods of excess PV output due to bidirectional reconfiguration. This improves the economic efficiency and reliability of the operation of power distribution networks with a high proportion of PV, providing a solution for energy storage planning that considers the randomness of renewable energy output.
