Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy efficiency improvement and resource allocation improvement, and specifically relates to a method for improving the energy efficiency and optimizing the resource allocation of an integrated energy system. Background Art
[0002] The method for improving the energy efficiency and optimizing the resource allocation of an integrated energy system is a scientific means and strategy adopted to achieve the efficient operation of the integrated energy system and the rational allocation of resources. In terms of energy efficiency improvement, it focuses on enhancing the utilization efficiency of the entire energy chain. Taking the integrated energy system of an industrial park containing multiple energy forms as an example, by means of advanced energy-saving equipment and technologies such as high-efficiency gas turbines and intelligent transformers, energy conversion and transmission losses are reduced. At the same time, using an intelligent control system, according to the real-time energy supply and demand situation, the energy production and distribution are accurately regulated to prevent energy waste, just as precisely as a household intelligent appliance control system adjusts the light brightness according to demand. In terms of optimizing resource allocation, this method rationally allocates and collaboratively optimizes multiple energies according to different energy characteristics, costs, and user demand preferences. For example, during the peak electricity consumption period in summer, the system preferentially uses renewable energy for power generation according to the real-time electricity price and energy supply, and converts the excess electric energy into heat energy for storage, and releases it during the low electricity consumption period or the peak heat energy demand period, just like a shrewd housekeeper reasonably arranges the procurement and usage plan to achieve the goal of reducing costs and improving benefits. In the current traditional methods in the field of energy management during use, they overly focus on improving the energy efficiency at the input end, but neglect the in-depth integration of renewable energy, which makes the green transformation of the energy structure extremely difficult, and the proportion of clean energy is far from the requirements of the sustainable development goal, which is not conducive to the long-term green development of the energy industry. At the same time, the dispatching control system reacts slowly, unable to timely capture the fluctuations in the energy market supply and demand, and it is also difficult to keep up with the changes in the dynamic demands of end-use energy equipment, thereby resulting in low energy allocation efficiency, poor utilization benefits, and relatively serious energy waste. Moreover, the system architecture design lacks flexibility, has weak adaptability to the special needs of different user scenarios, and cannot effectively balance the energy consumption differences among multiple scenarios such as industrial, commercial, and civilian, restricting the precise supply of energy services and squeezing the space for personalized optimization. These problems seriously restrict the improvement of energy management level and hinder the development of the energy industry towards the direction of high efficiency, greenness, and intelligence, and urgently need innovative methods to solve them.

Accurately simulate system responses and gain a deeper understanding of characteristics and potential issues. Then, apply reinforcement learning optimization and machine learning algorithms to automatically optimize scheduling strategies based on simulation data to find the optimal energy efficiency solution. Finally, promote demand response and peak-valley electricity prices to increase participation among industrial users, balance energy supply and demand, and reduce peak pressure.
[0061] S7: Case verification and large-scale promotion: Deploy PV, storage and charging in industrial parks to reduce costs and increase efficiency, coordinate policies, and output a standard "source-grid-load-storage" solution.
[0062] The specific steps for energy system assessment and quantitative target setting in S1 are as follows:
[0063] Step 1: Digital inventory of energy assets and energy efficiency grading
[0064] By scanning codes or using RFID technology to enter equipment information such as motor model and boiler capacity, a digital ledger containing ID, location, and age is constructed. Equipment is graded for energy efficiency according to national standards such as GB18613-2020, noting the proportion of high-efficiency motors rated IE3 and above. An energy efficiency heat map is generated, with low-efficiency equipment, such as air compressors with energy efficiency ratings below 3, marked in red, and prioritized for inclusion in energy-saving renovation plans.
[0065] Step 2: Data-driven energy consumption diagnosis and waste point identification
[0066] Collect historical data of smart meters and flow meters with a 15-minute granularity and a 12-month cycle. Use clustering algorithms to identify peak periods and idle equipment, calculate the waste amount (idle power × time × electricity price), and generate an energy-saving report.
[0067] The formula for the clustering algorithm is as follows:
[0068] Calculation of the clustering center, where where C k is the k-th clustering center, and S k is the set of samples in the k-th cluster;
[0069] Step 3: Setting of policy-linked quantitative targets
[0070] Refer to the "Administrative Measures for Carbon Emission Trading" to allocate carbon emission quotas to specific equipment. For example, gas boilers account for 25%. Use the PDCA model to set dual targets: the energy consumption per unit output value is reduced by 15%, such as from 0.3 tons of standard coal per 10,000 yuan to 0.255 tons, and the proportion of renewable energy reaches 30% (photovoltaic + biomass energy 28% + 2%). Update the target values dynamically every quarter according to policy adjustments such as tightened carbon quotas to ensure compliance.
[0071] This solution realizes precise management and efficiency improvement through digital ledgers and energy efficiency grading (such as marking the proportion of IE3 motors), can quickly locate low-energy equipment (such as marking air compressors in red), increasing the pertinence of energy-saving transformation by more than 40% and optimizing resource allocation; based on the clustering analysis of 15-minute energy consumption data, accurately identify peak electricity consumption periods and idle equipment (such as an air compressor with an idle rate of 42%), quantify energy waste and generate an energy-saving report, with an annual electricity cost savings of up to 87,000 yuan, helping to reduce costs driven by data; allocate carbon emission quotas to specific equipment (such as gas boilers accounting for 25%), combine with PDCA target decomposition to ensure compliance with policies such as a 15% reduction in energy consumption per unit output value and a 30% proportion of renewable energy, and the dynamic calibration mechanism can flexibly respond to changes such as tightened carbon quotas, realizing policy-linked risk avoidance; the dual target system (energy efficiency + policy) promotes the green transformation of enterprises. For example, an enterprise reduces carbon emissions by 18% through this solution and obtains a government subsidy of 320,000 yuan, achieving a win-win situation of economic and environmental benefits and empowering sustainable development.
[0072] Among them, the specific usage steps of the technology upgrade and multi-source complementary strategy formulation in S2 are as follows:
[0073] Step 1: Equipment iteration and upgrade
[0074] Deploy high-efficiency energy-saving equipment, including permanent magnet synchronous motors and absorption heat pumps. At the same time, retrofit existing equipment and install waste heat recovery devices, and clarify the target for improving waste heat recovery efficiency, such as increasing the flue gas waste heat recovery efficiency by 12% - 15%, so as to improve energy utilization efficiency;
[0075] Step 2: Construct an energy coupling system
[0076] Design a CCHP (Combined Cooling, Heating and Power) system, reasonably match the distributed photovoltaic and energy storage systems, configure a lithium iron phosphate energy storage system, use the energy storage system to smooth the fluctuations of photovoltaic power generation, and achieve the effective coupling and collaborative utilization of various energy forms;
[0077] Step 3: Achieve precise supply-demand matching
[0078] Use the LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) neural network technology to predict the energy load, dynamically adjust the energy scheduling plan according to the prediction results, and set the goal of improving the prediction accuracy, such as increasing the prediction accuracy of a certain park to 92%, so as to ensure the precise matching of energy supply and demand.
[0079] At the equipment level, through iterative upgrade and deployment of high-efficiency energy-saving equipment such as permanent magnet synchronous motors and absorption heat pumps, and installation of waste heat recovery devices, and clarifying goals such as increasing the flue gas waste heat recovery efficiency by 12%-15%, it can greatly improve the energy utilization efficiency, reduce the equipment energy consumption, and reduce the enterprise operation cost.
[0080] In terms of energy coupling, build a CCHP system, reasonably match the distributed photovoltaic and lithium iron phosphate energy storage systems, use the energy storage to smooth the photovoltaic fluctuations, and achieve the effective coupling and collaborative utilization of various energies. This not only enhances the stability and reliability of energy supply, but also can optimize the energy structure, increase the consumption ratio of renewable energy, and promote the transformation of energy to green and low-carbon.
[0081] In the supply-demand matching link, use the LSTM neural network to predict the load, dynamically adjust the energy scheduling plan, set the goal of improving the prediction accuracy, such as increasing the prediction accuracy of the park to 92%, which can ensure the precise matching of energy supply and demand, avoid energy waste, and further improve the comprehensive benefit of energy utilization.
[0082] Among them, the specific steps of investment analysis and system deployment implementation in S3 are as follows:
[0083] Step 1: Conduct economic calculation
[0084] Use the sensitivity analysis model, focus on the energy price fluctuation factor, evaluate its impact on the internal rate of return (IRR) of investment; clarify the key energy varieties, such as natural gas, set the price fluctuation range, for example, ±10%, and accurately calculate the income changes under different fluctuation scenarios, providing an economic feasibility basis for investment decisions;
[0085] Step 2: Promote the hardware deployment work
[0086] Install monitoring devices such as smart electricity meters and temperature and humidity sensors, and configure energy storage battery packs at the same time; adopt an advanced Energy Management System (EMS) to achieve linkage control among devices, ensure the coordinated operation of each hardware device, and build an efficient and intelligent hardware monitoring and regulation network;
[0087] Step 3: Carry out software development and integration
[0088] Build an Energy Management System (EMS) and integrate it with the SCADA platform; realize real-time monitoring of the energy flow through this system, and set strict system response time standards; for example, the response time of a certain system needs to be less than 1 second to ensure the timeliness and accuracy of energy management.
[0089] In terms of economic calculation, use a sensitivity analysis model to focus on the impact of energy price fluctuations on the return on investment, identify key energy varieties and set the fluctuation range, and accurately calculate the income changes under different scenarios. This enables investors to clearly understand the economic feasibility of the project under different energy price conditions, make preparations for risk response in advance, avoid investment losses caused by energy price fluctuations, and improve the scientificity and accuracy of investment decisions.
[0090] In the hardware deployment work, install various monitoring devices and energy storage battery packs, and achieve device linkage control through EMS. This builds an efficient and intelligent hardware monitoring and regulation network, which can master the energy usage situation in real time, optimize energy distribution, improve energy utilization efficiency, and reduce energy waste.
[0091] In the software development and integration link, build EMS and integrate it with the SCADA platform to achieve real-time monitoring of the energy flow and set strict response time standards. This ensures the timeliness and accuracy of energy management, can quickly discover and solve problems in energy use, ensure the stable operation of the energy system, and improve the overall energy management level.
[0092] Among them, the specific steps of real-time monitoring and dynamic optimization scheduling in S4 are as follows:
[0093] Step 1: Comprehensive data collection and monitoring
[0094] With the help of the IoT platform, deploy a LoRaWAN sensor network to achieve comprehensive collection of multi-dimensional data such as temperature, pressure, and flow in the park, ensuring that the data covers the entire park; through these data, provide a rich and accurate information basis for subsequent analysis, early warning, and scheduling, so as to master the operation status of the energy system in real time;
[0095] Step 2: Intelligent early warning and dynamic scheduling
[0096] Set the energy efficiency warning threshold. For example, when the transformer load rate exceeds 80%, an alarm is automatically triggered, and targeted maintenance suggestions are pushed. At the same time, adopt the model predictive control (MPC) algorithm, combine with weather prediction data, and dynamically adjust the equipment operation strategy. When the photovoltaic power generation is insufficient, automatically switch to the gas turbine to ensure the stability and efficiency of energy supply.
[0097] Comprehensive data collection and monitoring, as well as intelligent early warning and dynamic scheduling, bring many benefits. Comprehensive collection of multi-dimensional data can accurately grasp the operation status of the energy system in real time, provide rich and accurate basis for subsequent decision-making, and help to discover potential problems in a timely manner. Setting the energy efficiency warning threshold can alarm in time and push maintenance suggestions when the equipment load is abnormal, avoiding equipment damage and energy waste. Adopting the MPC algorithm combined with weather prediction to dynamically adjust the equipment operation strategy can flexibly switch the energy supply mode according to different situations, ensure the stable and efficient energy supply, reduce the operation cost, and improve the energy utilization efficiency.
[0098] Among them, the energy efficiency evaluation and continuous improvement mechanism in S5 refers to that in the process of energy management and sustainable development, index quantification is a key step. By calculating the core indicators such as the decline rate of energy consumption per unit GDP and carbon emission intensity, including a project achieving a 18% reduction in carbon emissions, the energy conservation and emission reduction effects can be clearly presented. Economic verification is also indispensable. Calculate the investment payback period, such as the payback period of the integrated photovoltaic energy storage and charging system is about 5.2 years, and compare it with the carbon trading income to provide a basis for project decision-making. In addition, new technologies need to be evaluated regularly, including the integration feasibility of hydrogen energy storage and virtual power plants, and the model needs to be updated and optimized in a timely manner. In this way, the energy management effect can be accurately grasped, the economic feasibility of the project can be ensured, keep up with the technological forefront, and promote the continuous upgrade and optimization of the energy system.
[0099] Among them, the specific use steps of digital twin and user-side optimization in S6 are as follows:
[0100] Step 1: Carry out virtual simulation
[0101] Build a digital twin model to comprehensively simulate different scenarios, such as the load changes of the energy system and the impact of policy changes on energy supply and demand in high temperature in summer. Through accurate simulation of the system's response in different scenarios, deeply understand the system characteristics and potential problems, and provide data support and theoretical basis for subsequent optimization of the dispatching strategy.
[0102] Step 2: Optimize using reinforcement learning
[0103] With the help of machine learning algorithms, based on the data obtained from virtual simulation, automatically optimize the dispatching strategy. Let the algorithm continuously learn and adjust to find the dispatching plan that can achieve the optimal energy efficiency in different scenarios.
[0104] The reinforcement learning optimization such as the Q-learning formula is as follows;
[0105] Q(s,a) ← Q(s,a) + α[r + γ max a Q(s,a) - Q(s,a)], where s is the state, a is the action, r is the reward, α is the learning rate, and γ is the discount factor;
[0106] Step 3: Promote demand response
[0107] Vigorously promote the peak-valley electricity price mechanism and publicize the benefits and incentive policies of off-peak electricity consumption to users; for key groups such as industrial users, take targeted measures to improve their participation rate, ensure that the participation rate of industrial users in demand response exceeds 60%, effectively balance energy supply and demand, and reduce the energy pressure during peak hours.
[0108] Carrying out digital twins and user-side optimization brings many benefits. Through virtual simulation, the characteristics and problems of the energy system in different scenarios can be comprehensively understood, providing a reliable basis for optimizing the dispatching strategy. Using reinforcement learning to optimize the dispatching strategy, the algorithm can automatically find the optimal energy efficiency solution to improve energy utilization efficiency. Promoting demand response, using the peak-valley electricity price mechanism to encourage users to consume electricity off-peak, especially increasing the participation rate of industrial users, can effectively balance energy supply and demand, reduce the energy pressure during peak hours, reduce energy waste, improve the stability and economy of the energy system, and contribute to the sustainable development of energy.
[0109] Among them, the case verification and large-scale promotion in S7 refer to the remarkable results of deploying the optical storage and charging system in the industrial park, with the annual energy consumption cost reduced by 22% and the internal rate of return stabilized above 8%, achieving a win-win situation of economic and environmental benefits; on this basis, the park combines the "dual carbon" goal, gives priority to configuring the proportion of green electricity and actively participates in the carbon trading market to further promote green development; at the same time, the park pays attention to summarizing experience, refining a standardized solution, forming a replicable "source-network-load-storage" coordination template, and exporting it to similar parks or enterprises. This not only helps to improve the energy utilization efficiency of the entire industry and reduce operating costs, but also provides green development ideas for more entities, accelerating the process of energy transformation and sustainable development.
[0110] The deployment of the optical storage and charging system in an industrial park has achieved remarkable results, with the annual energy consumption cost significantly reduced by 22% and the internal rate of return stabilized above 8%, achieving a double harvest of economic and environmental benefits. The park then combines the "dual carbon" goal, increases the proportion of green electricity configuration, actively participates in carbon trading, and deepens green development. Moreover, the park is good at summarizing experience, refining and exporting a standardized "source-network-load-storage" coordination template.
