To realize the potential of active distribution networks (ADNs) for improving power system flexibility and to cope with multiple uncertainties, a coordinated robust reserve scheduling (CRRS) model for the coupled transmission and distribution networks (CTD) is proposed in this paper. This model coordinates the generation resources both in the normal state and re-dispatch state to enhance the cost-effectiveness and reliability in a system perspective. A fully distributed framework based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is employed to solve this problem in a decentralized way. As the regional problem of the transmission system is non-convex, a two-layer iterative process (TIP) is presented to enhance the convergence property of standard ADMM. Since only the boundary information needs to be exchanged between the transmission and distribution systems, the communication burden is light and regional information is encrypted. Case studies on the T6D2 and T118D10 systems demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and approach.
