Abstract: In power systems, there are many uncertainty factors such as power outputs of distributed generations and fluctuations of loads. It is very beneficial to power system analysis to acquire an explicit function describing the relationship between these factors (namely parameters) and power system states (or performances). This problem, termed as parametric problem (PP) in this paper, can be solved by Galerkin method, which is a powerful and mathematically rigorous method aiming to seek an accurate explicit approximate function by projection techniques. This paper provides a review of the applications of polynomial approximation based on Galerkin method in power system PPs as well as stochastic problems. First, the fundamentals of polynomial approximation and Galerkin method are introduced. Then, the process of solving three types of typical PPs by polynomial approximation based on Galerkin method is elaborated. Finally, some application examples as well as several potential applications of power system PPs solved by Galerkin method are presented, namely the probabilistic power flow, approximation of static voltage stability region boundary, and parametric time-domain dynamic simulation.
