[0019] Under the background of the global active promotion of the clean energy transformation, distributed photovoltaic power generation has become an important direction for the development of the energy field due to its advantages such as being close to the load center, reducing transmission losses, and flexible installation. In recent years, the construction scale of distributed photovoltaic power stations has shown an explosive growth, widely distributed in various places such as industrial factories, commercial buildings, and residential houses, making significant contributions to the optimization of the energy supply structure and sustainable development. However, with the continuous expansion of the scale and the increasing number of photovoltaic power stations, the disadvantages of the traditional management mode have gradually emerged, making it difficult to meet the needs of modern power station operation management.

[0020] The present invention is dedicated to solving many problems of traditional photovoltaic operation management systems. The present invention integrates devices such as smart meters and inverters to achieve multi-source data collection and edge preprocessing, and ensures transmission security through AES encryption and resume breakpoint transmission; the data processing module integrates 3D dynamic modeling and generative adversarial network (GAN) to accurately predict equipment failures and self-optimize, and combines blockchain to achieve transparent electricity bill settlement; the control terminal provides visual interaction and closed-loop instruction verification, and can realize functions such as power station asset equipment management, fault detection and SMS push, automatic settlement of electricity consumption and electricity bills, online issuance of electronic invoices, bill notification, and electricity bill recovery management. At the same time, it provides self-service query and download services for electricity customers.

[0021] The following will Figures 1-10 describe the present invention specifically.

[0022] As Figure 1 shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a distributed photovoltaic operation management system, and the distributed photovoltaic operation management system includes: a device control module, including data collectors, video monitoring devices, and intelligent wearable devices deployed on smart meters and inverters in a photovoltaic power station, and the device control module is used to collect data and environmental information of photovoltaic power station equipment, and regulate photovoltaic power station equipment; a data transmission module, used to provide an encrypted data transmission channel and support a resume breakpoint transmission mechanism; a data processing module, used to receive the data transmitted by the data transmission module and process the received data; wherein, the data collected by the device control module is encrypted and transmitted to the data processing module through the data transmission module.

[0023] For the distributed photovoltaic operation management system provided by the present invention, the device control module integrates smart meters, inverters, video monitoring, and intelligent wearable devices, overcomes the limitations of traditional single collection, and realizes comprehensive multi-dimensional data collection, providing a rich and accurate data basis for system operation. The data transmission module uses encryption technology to ensure data transmission security, prevent leakage and tampering, and at the same time supports resume breakpoint transmission to avoid data loss in case of unstable network, ensuring reliable transmission. The data processing module has strong data processing capabilities, breaks through the weak function dilemma of existing systems, can deeply clean power data, accurately identify abnormalities, adapt to complex electricity bill settlement rules, and accurately identify potential safety hazards, greatly improving the accuracy of judging the operation status of power stations, and reducing operation costs and risks. In terms of fault prediction and potential hazard identification, the system can effectively handle complex working conditions and environments, accurately predict equipment failures and identify potential safety hazards, providing strong support for equipment maintenance and stable operation of power stations.

[0024] Preferably, as Figure 2As shown, the data processing module includes: a real-time monitoring sub-module for cleaning and anomaly detection of the power data collected by the smart meter; a electricity bill settlement sub-module for generating bills and calculating PV subsidies according to the power data and time-of-use tariff rules; a safety analysis sub-module for identifying potential safety hazards based on the environmental information collected by the video surveillance device and the smart wearable device.

[0025] Further preferably, the electricity bill settlement sub-module includes: a blockchain evidence storage unit for recording the hash value of the electricity bill transaction through Hyperledger Fabric; an automatic invoice issuing unit for interfacing with the tax system and generating electronic invoices; an electricity bill collection unit integrating multiple payment interfaces and supporting automatic deduction and manual payment.

[0026] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the data processing module serves as the core processing center of the entire distributed PV operation management system. The real-time monitoring, electricity bill settlement, and safety analysis sub-modules it contains provide strong support for the efficient and stable operation of the system from different dimensions. The real-time monitoring sub-module cleans and detects anomalies in the power data collected by the smart meter. By applying advanced data cleaning algorithms, it can quickly remove noise, error values, and outliers in the data, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the data. The electricity bill settlement sub-module generates bills and calculates PV subsidies based on the power data and time-of-use tariff rules, with high accuracy and comprehensiveness. This module uses an accurate electricity bill calculation model, combined with complex time-of-use tariff rules, to automatically and accurately calculate the electricity bill amount for users and generate standardized bills. At the same time, according to the national and local PV subsidy policies and regulations, as well as the actual power generation situation of the power station, through a professional subsidy calculation model, it ensures that users can enjoy the due subsidies in a timely and full amount. Moreover, this module further integrates a blockchain evidence storage unit, an automatic invoice issuing unit, and an electricity bill collection unit to realize the automated, intelligent, and standardized management of the entire electricity bill settlement process, effectively improving the efficiency and fairness of electricity bill settlement. The safety analysis sub-module identifies potential safety hazards based on the environmental information collected by the video surveillance device and the smart wearable device, greatly enhancing the safety of the power station. It uses cutting-edge image recognition technology and advanced environmental parameter analysis algorithms to comprehensively and deeply analyze and evaluate the overall safety status of the power station. It can real-time and accurately identify various potential safety hazards such as personnel intrusion, fire and smoke, equipment overheating, and abnormal vibration, and generate early warning information in a timely manner, providing strong technical support for the safe operation of the power station and effectively preventing the occurrence of safety accidents.

[0027] For example, in the electricity bill settlement sub-module, taking a certain distributed photovoltaic power station as an example, a large number of distributed photovoltaic panels are connected to this power station, and the smart meter collects the power generation data of each period in real time. Assume that the local implementation of peak-valley time-of-use electricity price, the electricity price during peak hours is 1.2 yuan per degree, and the electricity price during off-peak hours is 0.5 yuan per degree. During a certain settlement period, the smart meter statistics show that the power generation during peak hours is 5000 degrees, and the power generation during off-peak hours is 8000 degrees. The electricity bill settlement sub-module accurately calculates the electricity bill for this period according to the time-of-use electricity price rule: (5000×1.2)+(8000×0.5)=6000+4000=10000 yuan. At the same time, according to the local photovoltaic subsidy policy, a subsidy of 0.2 yuan per degree of electricity is provided. This module calculates the subsidy amount for this period through the subsidy calculation model as (5000+8000)×0.2=2600 yuan. Subsequently, the blockchain evidence storage unit records the key information such as the amount, time, and calculation basis of this electricity bill transaction in the blockchain distributed ledger, the automatic invoicing unit connects to the tax system to generate an electronic invoice, and the electricity bill collection unit supports users to pay through various payment interfaces such as WeChat payment and Alipay payment, completing the full process operation of electricity bill settlement.

[0028] Preferably, the data processing module is built-in with an intelligent mapping model, and the intelligent mapping model is used to simulate the equipment operation risk under extreme weather.

[0029] Further preferably, as Figure 4 shown, the construction method of the intelligent mapping model includes: obtaining the three-dimensional point cloud data of the photovoltaic power station; inputting the models and positions of each device in the photovoltaic power station into the three-dimensional point cloud data to generate a three-dimensional grid model with device attributes; marking the electrical connection topology relationship in the three-dimensional grid model; connecting the meteorological data interface to obtain the future light intensity and temperature prediction.

[0030] Further preferably, as Figure 5 shown, the operation process of the intelligent mapping model includes: obtaining the data uploaded by the device control module and the meteorological information within a future preset time period; according to the obtained data and meteorological information, through a preset fault prediction model, predicting the device failure probability within a future preset time period; according to the predicted failure probability, highlighting the risk devices in the three-dimensional grid model; optimizing the parameters of the algorithm in the fault prediction model according to the difference between the actual maintenance records and the prediction results of the fault prediction model; wherein, the fault prediction model is constructed based on a generative adversarial network and an attention mechanism.

[0031] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent mapping model built in the data processing module provides strong support for coping with the operation risks of equipment under extreme weather. This model can accurately simulate the impact of extreme weather on equipment operation and transmit the simulation results to the control terminal to assist users in making scientific decisions, effectively reducing the damage of extreme weather to the power station and ensuring the stability and reliability of power generation. In terms of the construction of the intelligent mapping model, first, accurate three-dimensional point cloud data of the photovoltaic power station is obtained, which provides basic spatial information for subsequent modeling. Then, the models and locations of each device are detailedly entered into it to generate a three-dimensional grid model with device attributes, making the model more in line with the actual power station situation. Next, the electrical connection topological relationship is marked to clearly present the association between devices. Finally, the meteorological data interface is connected to obtain future light intensity and temperature predictions, enabling the model to conduct simulations in combination with meteorological factors. In terms of the operation of the intelligent mapping model, first, the data uploaded by the device control module and the meteorological information in the future preset time period are collected to provide a rich data basis for prediction. The fault prediction model constructed based on the generative adversarial network and the attention mechanism can fully explore the potential features and complex relationships in the data and accurately predict the future device fault probability. According to the prediction results, the risk devices are highlighted in the three-dimensional grid model, allowing users to intuitively understand the risk distribution. At the same time, by comparing the actual maintenance records and the prediction results, the algorithm parameters of the fault prediction model are continuously optimized, so that the prediction accuracy and reliability of the model are continuously improved to better adapt to the actual operation of the power station. In summary, the intelligent mapping model ensures the stable operation of the distributed photovoltaic operation management system with its scientific construction method and efficient operation process.

[0032] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the network interruption is restored, the data blocks associated with the high-risk devices marked by the fault prediction model are preferentially transmitted to ensure that the system can quickly obtain the real-time status of key devices. Combining meteorological prediction data (such as stable future light intensity and no extreme weather), the system can skip the transmission of inverter data blocks determined to be "abnormal-free". For example, if the meteorological prediction shows that there is no thunderstorm in the next 3 hours, the relevant inverter data can be postponed for transmission, saving bandwidth for high-priority tasks, reducing network congestion, and improving the overall transmission efficiency. Skipping the transmission of low-risk data blocks not only saves network resources but also reduces the storage pressure on the cloud or local server.

[0033] For example, the fault prediction model predicts that in the upcoming extreme weather, a group of photovoltaic panels located at the wind outlet of the valley may be hit by strong winds, with a failure probability of 30%, and an inverter near the foot of the mountain, which is prone to water accumulation, has a failure probability of 25% due to moisture risk. Based on these prediction results, the corresponding photovoltaic panels and inverters are highlighted in red in the three-dimensional grid model. After the power station operation and maintenance personnel saw these risky devices through the control terminal, they immediately organized personnel to reinforce the photovoltaic panels at the wind outlet and take waterproof and moisture-proof measures for the inverters in the water-prone areas in advance.

[0034] Preferably, the method of predicting the probability of equipment failure within a preset time period in the future based on the acquired data and meteorological information through a preset fault prediction model includes: simulating and generating equipment operation data through a generator based on historical data of photovoltaic power station equipment; analyzing the acquired data and meteorological information through an attention mechanism to screen out features related to the fault; predicting the probability of equipment failure within a preset time period in the future based on the equipment operation data simulated by the generator and the features, combined with the meteorological information within a preset time period in the future.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the fault prediction link, first, the generator in the fault prediction model simulates and generates the equipment operation data based on the historical data of the photovoltaic power station equipment. The historical data covers the power generation power, temperature, light intensity of the photovoltaic panel, the input and output voltage, current, conversion efficiency and other information of the inverter. The generator refers to the operating characteristics of the equipment under different working conditions and environments in the historical data, such as specific meteorological conditions (high temperature, high humidity, etc.) or operating time periods (peak, valley), and simulates the possible operation data of the equipment in the future preset time period. Then, the attention mechanism intervenes to analyze the acquired equipment operation data and meteorological information, and screen out the features related to the fault. For photovoltaic panels, features that may cause faults, such as excessive temperature and drastic fluctuations in light intensity, will be given high weights and screened out; for inverters, key features such as unstable input and output voltages, abnormal conversion efficiency, and excessive internal temperature will be focused on. In terms of meteorological information, factors that have a significant impact on equipment failures, such as wind speed and direction, rainfall, humidity and other features of strong winds, will be identified and screened. Finally, the fault prediction model uses an internal algorithm to calculate the equipment operation data simulated by the comprehensive generator, the features screened by the attention mechanism, and the meteorological information in the future preset time period, so as to predict the failure probability of the equipment in the future preset time period and provide data support for subsequent operation and maintenance decisions.

[0036] For example, based on the data during historical heavy rain weather, the generator simulates the operating data such as the decrease in the power generation power of the photovoltaic panels and the possible parameter fluctuations of the inverter due to moisture during the next week if heavy rain occurs. The attention mechanism analyzes the data and meteorological information, and selects the features related to faults, such as indicators that are greatly affected by heavy rain, such as the sealing degree of the photovoltaic panels and the moisture-proof performance of the inverter. Combining the simulated data, the selected features, and the meteorological information of heavy rain in the next week, the model predicts that the probability of water accumulation failure of the photovoltaic panels is 5%, and the probability of moisture-related failure of the inverter is 20%.

[0037] Preferably, as Figure 3 shown, the data transmission module is configured to: during the data transmission process, use the AES encryption algorithm to encrypt various types of data transmitted by the device control module; according to the preset data retransmission and recovery algorithm, when an abnormal situation occurs in the network, identify the breakpoint position of the data transmission, and re-initiate a data transmission request.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when various types of data such as the electrical energy data, inverter status information, and environmental information collected by the device control module are ready to be transmitted, the data transmission module immediately enables the AES encryption algorithm. Taking the electrical energy data collected by the smart meter as an example, before transmission, the key information such as the power generation amount, power, current, and voltage in the data is scrambled and reorganized into a string of ciphertext to prevent the operation risks of the power station caused by data leakage. When an abnormality occurs in the network, such as data transmission interruption caused by signal interference or line failure, the data transmission module acts quickly according to the preset data retransmission and recovery algorithm. For example, if the network is interrupted during the transmission of a set of inverter operating status data, the data transmission module can determine the data segments that have been successfully transmitted before the interruption and the parts that have not been transmitted. Subsequently, it automatically re-initiates a data transmission request and continues to transmit the remaining data from the breakpoint, ensuring that the data arrives at the data processing module intact. This mechanism effectively avoids data loss caused by network abnormalities, ensures the stability of data interaction in the entire system, provides a reliable basis for the subsequent processing and analysis of data by the data processing module, and ensures that the operation management decisions of the power station are always based on accurate and complete data.

[0039] Preferably, the distributed photovoltaic operation management system further includes a control terminal configured with a display unit. The control terminal is used to receive the processing results of the data processing module and provide an interaction interface; according to user operations, issue corresponding control instructions, display the data collected by the device control module, and generate a warning notice according to the potential safety hazards identified by the security analysis sub-module.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the user operates in the control terminal interface, the control terminal will respond quickly and issue corresponding control instructions. For example, the operation and maintenance personnel find that the photovoltaic panels in a certain area have decreased power generation efficiency due to dust accumulation. After selecting the equipment in the area in the control terminal interface, click the "Start Cleaning Equipment" operation button, and the control terminal will immediately convert this control instruction into a specific electrical signal instruction format, and finally transmit it to the equipment control module through the data transmission module and the data processing module, drive the corresponding cleaning equipment to start working, and clean the photovoltaic panels, thereby improving the power generation efficiency. In terms of data display, the control terminal clearly displays the electric energy data collected by the smart meter, such as real-time power generation, power curve, etc., in the form of charts, so that users can grasp the power generation status of the power station at a glance. For the inverter status data, the conversion efficiency, fault code and other information are presented in a detailed list, which is convenient for users to understand the operating status of the equipment at any time. The environmental image data collected by the video monitoring equipment is displayed by the control terminal in the form of a real-time video stream to ensure that users can view the power station environment in real time. Once the safety analysis submodule identifies a safety hazard, the control terminal quickly generates an early warning notification. Assume that the safety analysis submodule determines that a person has entered a certain area and is close to high-voltage equipment through video surveillance image analysis and smart wearable device data, posing a risk of electric shock. The control terminal immediately sends an early warning notification to the power station management personnel and related operation and maintenance personnel in various ways such as pop-up windows and text messages. The notification content details the location, type and possible harm of the hidden danger, reminding relevant personnel to take timely measures to eliminate safety hazards and ensure the safe operation of the power station.

[0041] Preferably, the device control module also includes a data processing unit for pre-processing the data collected by the device control module using edge computing technology.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the data processing unit uses edge computing technology. Taking the electric energy data collected by the smart meter as an example, the data processing unit will use the data filtering algorithm in the edge computing technology to preliminarily screen the collected electric energy data and remove the noise data and abnormal values. For example, when the current value collected by the smart meter at a certain moment shows an obvious jump, and the difference with the previous and subsequent data is too large, the data processing unit will judge the data as an abnormal value and remove it to ensure that the data transmitted to the data processing module is accurate and reliable. The data processing unit uses edge computing technology to pre-process the data collected by the device control module, which not only reduces the pressure of network transmission and improves the efficiency of data transmission, but also can quickly and accurately provide valuable data to the data processing module, providing strong support for the stable operation and efficient decision-making of the entire distributed photovoltaic operation and management system.

[0043] Preferably, the resume - interrupted - transfer mechanism is configured as follows: when the transmission is interrupted, it preferentially re - transmits the data blocks associated with the high - risk devices marked by the fault prediction model, and combines the meteorological prediction data during the transmission interruption to skip the transmission of the inverter data blocks that have been predicted to be normal.

[0044] For example, a photovoltaic power station encounters strong wind and heavy rain weather, resulting in a 2 - hour interruption of the network signal. Inverter A (high - risk device): The previous fault prediction model marked its abnormal heat dissipation, and the fault probability reached 85%; Inverter B (low - risk device): operates normally, and the predicted fault probability is <5%; Data block 1: current and temperature data of Inverter A; Data block 2: normal status data of Inverter B; The data is transmitted to Data block 1 (completed) and Data block 2 (interrupted when 50% is transmitted), and the data processing module records the breakpoint position. When the network signal is restored, Data block 1 is preferentially transmitted, and Data block 2 is skipped.

[0045] In summary, as Figure 6 shown, a distributed photovoltaic operation and management system provided by the present invention integrates intelligent electricity meters, inverters, video monitoring, and intelligent wearable devices through an equipment control module to achieve real - time multi - dimensional data collection and edge - computing pre - processing. Combining the AES encryption and resume - interrupted - transfer technology of the data transmission module ensures the safe and reliable data transmission; The data processing module constructs an intelligent mapping model based on three - dimensional point cloud dynamic modeling, generative adversarial network (GAN), and attention mechanism to accurately predict the equipment failure risk under extreme weather and self - optimize the algorithm. At the same time, relying on blockchain evidence storage and automated electricity bill settlement, it realizes the transparency and efficient recovery of photovoltaic bills; The control terminal provides a user - friendly decision - making support and safe operation environment through a visual interaction interface and a closed - loop control instruction verification mechanism. The overall system integrates edge computing and artificial intelligence technologies with a modular hierarchical architecture, significantly reducing the operation and maintenance cost, improving the power generation efficiency, and enhancing the risk resistance ability of the power station, providing a full - link solution for the intelligent and digital operation of distributed photovoltaics, and integrating functions such as electric energy collection, electricity bill settlement, invoice issuance, and user services, which is convenient for users. At the same time, through the integration of resume - interrupted - transfer and fusion prediction models, it realizes dynamic hierarchical classification of data priorities and intelligent trimming of transmission content, and can more accurately identify key data blocks, avoiding the efficiency bottleneck caused by "indiscriminate resume - interrupted - transfer".

[0046] The above describes a distributed photovoltaic operation and management system in the embodiments of the present application. Based on the same inventive concept, the operation process of this system is as Figures 7-10 shown: As Figure 7As shown, in the electricity meter query interface, when clicking on a certain station in the left list, the electricity meter readings and some electricity meter parameters (such as electricity meter ID, collector ID, multiplication factor, type, online status) can be viewed on the right. By default, the electricity meter base numbers at 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 o'clock every day are displayed. Clicking on "Switch" can view the base numbers at each whole hour of 24 hours.
