[0050] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is implemented on the premise of the technical solution of the present invention, and detailed implementation manners and specific operation processes are given, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0051] Embodiment 1

[0052] As one of the implementation manners of the present invention, this embodiment provides a spatio-temporal dual-scale optimal scheduling method for electric vehicles considering user satisfaction and load fluctuation, as follows Figure 1 shown, which includes the following steps:

[0053] S1. Collect the charging demand data of electric vehicles, including the charging start time, end time, charging duration, initial SOC (remaining battery power), off-grid SOC, etc. of each electric vehicle. Then, collect the historical load data of the power grid, including the load curve, peak-valley difference value, load fluctuation condition, etc., and evaluate the load capacity and load fluctuation of the power grid. Further, collect the data related to user satisfaction, such as charging cost, detour distance, queuing waiting time, etc., for constructing a user cost satisfaction function and a travel satisfaction function to improve the user charging experience. Finally, collect the relevant information of the charging station, including the location of the charging station, the number of charging piles, the capacity of the charging station, etc., for constructing a spatial layer optimal scheduling model.

[0054] S2. Based on the collected data such as charging cost and historical load of the power grid, construct an optimal scheduling model for electric vehicle charging on the time scale. The optimal scheduling of electric vehicle charging needs to consider the benefits of both the power grid and electric vehicle users. For the power grid, it is necessary to reduce the peak-valley difference value of the load curve and minimize the fluctuation; for users, it is necessary to reduce the cost as much as possible to minimize the cost. Therefore, the specific construction process of the optimal scheduling model for electric vehicle charging at the time layer is as follows:

[0055] 2.1 Objective function

[0057]

[0059]

[0060] In the formula, C i is the charging cost of the i-th user, is the maximum acceptable charging cost of user i, and w expense is the weight coefficient of the cost satisfaction.

[0061] 2.1.2. Minimize the power grid load fluctuation:

[0062]

[0063] In the formula, is the power grid load at time t, is the average value of the power grid load.

[0064] 2.1.3 Minimization of charging time span:

[0065]

[0066] Wherein, and are the charging end time and start time of the i-th electric vehicle respectively.

[0067] 2.2 Constraint conditions:

[0068] 2.2.1. Charging demand constraint:

[0069]

[0070] Wherein, is the actual charging amount of the i-th electric vehicle, is the charging demand of the i-th electric vehicle.

[0071] 2.2.2. Grid load capacity constraint:

[0072]

[0073] Wherein, is the maximum capacity of the grid load.

[0074] 2.2.3. Charging time arrangement constraint:

[0075]

[0076] Wherein, are the start charging time and end charging time of the i-th electric vehicle respectively.

[0077] S3. According to the collected information such as the detour distance of users, queuing waiting time, and relevant information of charging stations, construct a spatial layer optimization model, that is, the optimal choice of charging stations by electric vehicle users. This model aims to maximize the travel satisfaction of users and seek the optimal scheduling strategy. Among them, the travel satisfaction comprehensively considers two key factors: the detour distance of users and the queuing waiting time. By reducing the detour and waiting time of users, the travel satisfaction of users is improved. Therefore, the specific construction process of the spatial layer charging optimization scheduling model for electric vehicles is as follows:

[0078] 3.1 Objective function

[0079]

[0080] Wherein: is the travel satisfaction of the i-th user, and its mathematical expression is as follows:

[0081]

[0082] Where: D i is the detour distance of the i-th user, Q i is the queuing waiting time of the i-th user, D max and Q max are respectively the maximum detour distance and the maximum queuing waiting time among all users, w dist and w wait are respectively the weight coefficients of the satisfaction degree of detour distance and the satisfaction degree of queuing waiting time.

[0083] 3.2 Constraints

[0084] 3.2.1. Charging station selection constraint:

[0085]

[0086] Where n is the total number of users; is an indicator function, if user i selects charging station j for charging, the function value is 1, otherwise it is 0.

[0087] 3.2.2. Charging station capacity limit constraint:

[0088]

[0089] Where is the capacity of charging station j.

[0090] 3.2.3. Charging station allocation uniqueness constraint:

[0091]

[0092] Where m is the total number of charging stations, ensuring that each user selects only one charging station for charging.

[0093] S4. According to the above model design, first, according to the charging time arrangement determined by the time-layer optimization scheduling model, combined with the charging station allocation determined by the space-layer optimization scheduling model, calculate the cost satisfaction and travel satisfaction of each user. Subsequently, evaluate the load fluctuation of the power grid under this scheduling plan to ensure that the power grid load is within an acceptable capacity range.

[0094] Example 2

[0095] This embodiment provides a specific numerical example to further illustrate the present invention. In this embodiment, it is assumed that there are 10 electric vehicles and 3 charging stations, and each station is equipped with 2 charging piles. Each electric vehicle needs to be charged with 50 kWh, and the charging cost is $0.2 / kWh. To simplify the calculation, the weight coefficients for cost satisfaction, detour distance satisfaction, and queuing waiting time satisfaction are all set to 1. In addition, a maximum detour distance of 5 kilometers and a maximum waiting time of 30 minutes are also set as considerations for user satisfaction.

[0096] Strategy A (traditional scheduling): Under this strategy, electric vehicles randomly select charging stations and start charging immediately, without considering user satisfaction or grid load optimization.

[0097] Table 1 Scheduling results of the traditional strategy

[0098]

[0099] Strategy B (optimized scheduling): Strategy B optimized based on the method of the present invention comprehensively considers user cost satisfaction and user travel satisfaction, and at the same time pays attention to grid load fluctuations to achieve spatio-temporal dual-scale optimized scheduling.

[0100] Table 2 Scheduling results of the spatio-temporal dual-scale optimization method proposed by the present invention

[0101]

[0102]

[0103] Based on the method and constraints proposed in this embodiment, according to the charging time arrangement determined by the time-layer optimized scheduling model, combined with the charging station allocation determined by the space-layer optimized scheduling model, calculate the cost satisfaction and travel satisfaction of each user. Subsequently, evaluate the load fluctuation of the power grid under this scheduling plan to ensure that the power grid load is within an acceptable capacity range. Finally, it can be obtained Figures 2-3The results are shown as follows. As can be seen from the figure, the optimized Strategy B based on the method of the present invention is significantly superior to the traditional Strategy A in terms of user satisfaction. Although the cost satisfaction of the two strategies is the same because the charging cost is fixed in this implementation case, Strategy B significantly reduces the detour distance and waiting time of users by optimizing the charging time and location, thus improving the travel satisfaction. Specifically, the vehicles of Strategy B optimized based on the method of the present invention charge during off-peak hours, effectively avoiding the peak of the grid load, and at the same time, the travel satisfaction of users is improved due to shorter detours and waiting times. In addition, from the grid load data, the grid load of Strategy B optimized based on the method of the present invention during the grid peak hours (09:00 - 13:00 and 17:00 - 21:00) is significantly lower than that of Strategy A, indicating that this optimized scheduling method can effectively reduce the grid load fluctuation without sacrificing user satisfaction.

In addition to the above-mentioned processors, memory, and interfaces, any device with data processing capabilities where the device in the embodiment is located usually includes other hardware according to the actual functions of the device with data processing capabilities, which will not be elaborated here.
