Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power control for ships with energy storage systems, and more specifically to a capacity planning method for ship hybrid energy storage systems based on multi-layer power allocation. Background Technology

[0002] With a growing global consensus on reducing carbon emissions, the shipping industry is facing unprecedented pressure to transform. The carbon reduction targets set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) are forcing ship operators to seek cleaner and more efficient energy solutions. To reduce carbon emissions in the shipping industry and promote its green transformation, ship electrification has received significant attention in recent years, exemplified by all-electric ships (AES), whose propulsion systems use electricity, and whose power networks can be viewed as microgrids.

[0003] To ensure the safe and stable operation of ships, the electrical system needs to provide reliable and stable power to the ship's loads. Therefore, ship microgrids typically combine multiple power sources. Diesel generator sets meet the main load requirements of ship navigation, but they can cause high carbon emissions, water pollution, and noise pollution. Fuel cells, with their high energy conversion efficiency, reliable performance, environmental friendliness, and noise reduction, are a green power source that can replace traditional diesel engine sets. However, ship navigation and operations are easily affected by the uncertain marine environment, leading to power fluctuations in the ship's microgrid, causing a drop in DC bus voltage, which in turn affects the power output of the fuel cells. Therefore, a hybrid energy storage system is needed to mitigate power fluctuations.

[0004] The applicant found that hybrid energy storage systems need to flexibly match the power fluctuations of the ship's electrical system to maintain the economical operation of generator sets and fuel cells. Therefore, capacity planning for hybrid energy storage systems is a critical issue. If the system is too small, it will lead to an inability to achieve power balance between the ship's power generation and load sides; if it is too large, it will increase the ship's weight and system investment costs. Furthermore, the power allocation problem across multiple power sources at different time scales is also a major challenge for all-electric ships. All-electric ships have multiple large-scale power sources. If an appropriate power allocation strategy is not adopted, high-frequency and low-frequency power fluctuations at different time scales will affect the ship's normal navigation, as propulsion power is the primary load demand during navigation.

By constructing a robust capacity planning model with the goal of minimizing the investment cost of the marine hybrid energy storage system, and comprehensively considering various factors and uncertainties, it can find the most economical and reasonable energy storage capacity configuration scheme while satisfying the operational constraints of the power generation side.

[0071] This invention, based on the operational constraints of the power generation side of an all-electric marine hybrid energy storage system, constructs a robust capacity planning model for the system, aiming to minimize the investment cost and operating cost of the marine microgrid, and solves for the optimal capacity. By constructing a robust capacity planning model with the goal of minimizing the investment cost of the marine hybrid energy storage system, and comprehensively considering various factors and uncertainties, it can find the most economical and reasonable energy storage capacity configuration scheme while satisfying the operational constraints of the power generation side.

[0072] The optimal capacity obtained by this invention is used as the design capacity. Combined with actual propulsion power requirements, a multi-timescale power allocation scheme is derived. During the navigation of an all-electric ship, propulsion power requirements exhibit high-frequency and low-frequency fluctuations at different time scales. Multi-timescale power allocation, combined with actual propulsion power requirements, allows the hybrid energy storage system to better adapt to these complex power variations.

[0073] To better illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, this embodiment is described in the following parts.

[0074] This embodiment takes an all-electric ship microgrid with different types of energy storage units as an example, such as Figure 2 As shown, its power generation side includes a main generator and a fuel cell, while the load side includes propulsion load and daily service load. This invention first analyzes the power balance characteristics of the power generation side and load side of the ship's microgrid under fluctuating propulsion scenarios, establishes the operating constraints of the power generation side of the all-electric ship hybrid energy storage system, and, based on the composition of the power generation side and load side of the ship's microgrid under fluctuating propulsion scenarios, the power generation model, the power fluctuation of the propulsion load, and combined with the power generation model and the capacity requirements of the energy storage system, finally establishes the operating constraints of the power generation side system.

[0075] I. Operational Constraints on the Generation Side of All-Electric Ship Hybrid Energy Storage Systems

[0076] In this embodiment, the composition of the power generation side and load side of the ship microgrid, the power generation model, and the power fluctuation of the propulsion load are analyzed under the wave propulsion scenario. Based on the power generation model and the capacity requirements of the energy storage system, the operating constraints of the power generation side system are established.

[0077] A typical 1500V DC ring network is chosen to represent the microgrid structure of the all-electric ship under study. The main generator, fuel cells, and hybrid energy storage system provide the necessary electrical energy to the ship's loads through the microgrid to meet the ship's propulsion and daily service needs. In practical use, the capacity of the hybrid energy storage system should be lower than a certain threshold set during construction. The power generation side mainly includes the main generator and fuel cells, and a dynamic power generation model can be established based on their active power and rated active power. Furthermore, the cost of fuel for power generation also affects the operating cost of the all-electric ship.

Based on this model, the optimal capacity of the hybrid energy storage system is determined, and the optimization of the capacity configuration of the hybrid energy storage system lays the foundation for further implementation of power allocation strategies.

[0090] To ensure the safe and stable operation of all-electric ships, the power balance between the hybrid energy storage system and the load side is analyzed, and system power balance constraints are established. The hybrid energy storage system acts as a power / energy buffer within the all-electric ship's microgrid, with the batteries bearing the power... Certain constraints must be met. Batteries primarily handle hourly loads; after determining the battery capacity based on its power output, the supercapacitor capacity can be determined to handle other power fluctuations. For all-electric ships, power balance is required between the generator and load sides. Furthermore, to ensure reliable power supply, the generator side also needs a certain reserve of active power.

[0091] The system power balance constraints of the robust capacity planning model for a ship hybrid energy storage system include:

[0103]

[0104] Where: H c This represents the total daily investment cost; I nvP I nvE These are the daily net annual values ​​for power capacity and energy storage capacity, respectively.

The first layer coordinates and controls the main generator and fuel cells to meet the ship's main propulsion load requirements on a daily time scale, thereby reducing fuel consumption. The second layer coordinates and controls the batteries and fuel cells to meet low-frequency power requirements on an hourly time scale, thereby smoothing out power fluctuations on an hourly time scale. The third layer controls the supercapacitor to meet high-frequency power requirements on a minute-by-minute time scale, thereby smoothing out power fluctuations on a minute-by-minute time scale.
