When black out occurs, the whole power grid is divided into several subsystems to increase the efficiency and shorten the duration of power system restoration by using parallel restoration strategy. Therefore, reasonable network partitioning in black start phase after large-scale power failures is important in both theory and practice. In this paper, a flexible black start network partitioning strategy considering the subsystem recovery time balance is proposed. Based on the rules of zone division and analyzing initial black start partitioning model of subsystem shortest recovery path, subsystem recovery time balance index is defined to represent disparity of every subsystem's restoration process. Meanwhile, a flexible factor of total recovery time is introduced as part of objective function with the time balance index, aiming at reducing waiting time of the synchronization operation and strengthens efficiency of black start at the cost of the least total time increment. The classic Dijkstra algorithm and improved genetic algorithm are employed to obtain the optimal restoration plan in the paper. Case study on IEEE 118-bus test system shows the validity of the methodology proposed.
