Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of clean energy technology, and in particular to a method and system for short-term complementary scheduling of cascade hydropower and photovoltaic power generation using units as scheduling units. Background Art

[0002] Building a multi-energy complementary system including wind power and photovoltaic power is an important way to solve the flexibility of new energy grid connection. The research results on the optimization operation of complementary systems at home and abroad are mainly concentrated on the output fluctuation, system peak regulation, and complementary characteristics analysis of complementary systems. Most of these models take the power station as the minimum dispatching unit, without finely considering the complex operation constraints of the units and the power grid, which makes the power stations have deviations when executing the plan, or even difficult to execute. For example, the same power station may contain multiple units of different types. Different types of units have different climbing capabilities, vibration zones, start-stop times and other constraints, which cannot be generalized; different units of the same power station and different power stations between upstream and downstream of the cascade may be connected to the grid step by step through different partition sections, subject to the transmission capacity constraints of multi-level partition sections.

[0003] In addition, in order to achieve complementarity with fluctuating power sources such as photovoltaic and wind power, hydropower output may fluctuate frequently, causing losses in hydropower units. How to fully consider the operating constraints of hydropower units, upstream and downstream hydraulic connections of cascades, and grid constraints in short-term multi-energy complementary scheduling, and improve the power generation level of the complementary system and the executability of the scheduling plan are practical technical issues that need to be considered and solved in the scheduling and operation of the water-wind-solar complementary system. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention includes providing a cascade hydropower and photovoltaic short-term complementary scheduling method and system with units as scheduling units, which can avoid unit vibration, grid constraint failure, etc. caused by using power stations as the minimum scheduling units, and improve the overall power consumption level of the complementary system and the executability of the scheduling plan.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a method for short-term complementary scheduling of cascade hydropower and photovoltaic power generation with a unit as a scheduling unit, comprising the following steps:

[0065] S1: Based on the predicted output data of photovoltaic power stations and with one day as the scheduling cycle, a model for short-term optimal scheduling of the maximum amount of electricity that can be absorbed by the cascaded hydro-photovoltaic complementary system is constructed.

[0066] The model of short-term optimal dispatching of the maximum amount of electricity that can be absorbed by the cascaded hydro-photovoltaic complementary system takes the predicted output data of the photovoltaic power station as the determined value and takes the maximum amount of electricity that can be absorbed by the cascaded hydro-photovoltaic complementary system as the optimization goal:

[0087]

[0088]

[0089] Formulas (26)-(33) are the unit output constraint, unit power generation flow constraint, unit vibration zone constraint, unit start-up and shutdown duration constraint, unit climbing constraint, hydropower unit output fluctuation limit constraint, unit power generation head constraint, and unit dynamic characteristic relationship constraint, respectively.

[0090] Where P i,n,t , P i,n are the output of the nth unit of power station i and its upper and lower limits respectively; It is divided into the power generation flow of the nth unit of power station i and its upper and lower limits; and are the upper and lower limits of the output of the kth vibration zone of the nth unit in power station i; u i,n,t is the start and stop state variable of the nth unit of power station i in time period t, 1 represents the start state, and 0 represents the stop state; is the startup operation variable of the nth unit in power station i in time period t, 1 indicates startup operation; is the shutdown operation variable of the nth unit of power station i in time period t, 1 indicates shutdown operation; are the minimum startup and shutdown durations of the nth unit in power station i, respectively; Represents the maximum number of startup times during the scheduling period; ΔP i,n is the climbing capacity of the nth unit in power station i; t e H is the minimum number of time periods that the unit needs to maintain during a round of output increase or decrease; i,n,t , are the generating head and head loss of the nth unit in power station i in time period t respectively.

[0091] (3) Grid-related constraints

[0092]

[0093]

[0094] Equations (34) and (35) represent the constraints on cascade hydropower generation and transmission section, respectively.

[0095] Where P t plan The cascade hydropower generation plan issued by the power grid is jointly coordinated and compiled by the power grid and the cascade control center of the river basin; CO g,t They represent the power abandonment and transmission capacity upper limit of the g-th constraint section in time period t respectively; P g,t , L g,t They respectively represent the output and load of all units under the g-th constraint section. The load of each node can be obtained through the bus load prediction system.

[0096] S2: Perform model conversion and solution.

[0097] Model transformation mainly refers to the transformation of nonlinear constraints and equality constraints involved in the model.

[0098] The method of model conversion and solution is to first convert the nonlinear constraints in the model into linear constraints, and then use the constraint relaxation method to convert the linear equality constraints in the model into linear inequality constraints, and convert the model of the maximum short-term optimal scheduling of the cascaded hydro-photovoltaic complementary system that can absorb the maximum amount of electricity into a standard mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model, and then call CPLEX optimization software in JAVA to realize model solution and model data input and result analysis. The model conversion and solution specifically include the following steps:

[0099] S2.1: Linearization of the relationship between water level-reservoir capacity and tailwater level-discharge rate.

[0100]

[0101]

[0102] In the formula, V i,t , Q i,t They represent the water level before the reservoir dam, tailwater level, reservoir capacity and outflow flow respectively; f i zv (·),f i zq(·) respectively represent the nonlinear relationship curve function between water level and reservoir capacity and the nonlinear relationship curve function between tailwater level and discharge. The water level discretization and piecewise linear interpolation method are used for processing. Considering that the water level variation of the reservoir is small within a day, linear functions are used to approximate the water level-reservoir capacity relationship and the tailwater level-discharge relationship near the initial dam front water level and the initial tailwater level, which can not only meet the accuracy requirements, but also reduce the number of decision variables and improve the solution efficiency.

[0103] S2.2: Linearization of unit vibration zone constraints.

[0104] For safety reasons, the unit should avoid operating in the vibration zone or frequently crossing the vibration zone. Based on the K vibration zones of the unit, the unit can be divided into K+1 non-continuous safe operating intervals within the maximum and minimum output range. Introducing 0-1 variable Vib i,n,t,k Indicates the safe range of the unit output, and transforms the unit vibration zone constraint into K+1 linear constraints such as equation (4) and integer variable equality constraints such as equation (5):

[0105]

[0106]

[0107]

[0108] In the formula, They represent the upper and lower limits of the safe operating range output corresponding to the kth vibration zone; u i,n,t Turn on the shutdown state variable for the motor group.

[0109] S2.3: Linearization of unit dynamic characteristics.

[0110] The dynamic characteristics of the unit are the two-dimensional nonlinear relationship between the unit output and the generating head and generating flow:

[0111]

[0112] Where P i,n,t , H i,n,t They represent the unit output, unit power flow and unit power head respectively; The nonlinear relationship function representing the output-head-flow of the unit is expressed as a cluster of two-dimensional curves with the power flow as the horizontal coordinate and the output as the vertical coordinate. Multiple curves are directly processed by piecewise linearization, which requires the introduction of a large number of integer variables and reduces the efficiency of the solution. The triangle weight technology is used for linearization to reduce the scale of integer variables. The initial head corresponding curve and its two adjacent head lines are used as boundaries to divide 9 triangular areas, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2As shown, the nonlinear relationship of formula (6) is converted into formulas (7)-(13) instead:

[0113] z i,n,t,l ∈{0,1},l=1,2,3,…,9 (7)

[0114]

[0115]

[0116]

[0117]

[0118]

[0119]

[0120] Where: l is the number of the divided triangle, l = 1, 2, 3, ..., 9; ind is the number of the triangle vertex, ind = 1, 2, 3; z i,n,t,l is the indicator variable, z i,n,t,l =1 means that the power characteristic relationship of the nth unit of power station i in time period t is within the lth triangle; Represents the weight of the ind-th vertex of the l-th triangle; They respectively represent the power generation head, power generation flow and power generation output corresponding to the ind-th vertex of the l-th triangle.

[0121] S2.4: Linearization of the output fluctuation limit constraints of hydropower units.

[0122] As shown in equations (15) and (16), the introduction of adjustment index variables to deal with the unit output fluctuation constraint can avoid frequent changes in the adjustment direction of the unit in adjacent time periods:

[0123] (P i,n,t -P i,n,t-σ-1 )(P i,n,t -P i,n,t-1 )≥0,σ=1,2,…,t e -1 (14)

[0124] -α i,n,t ΔP i,n ≤P i,n,t+1 -P i,n,t ≤β i,n,t ΔP i,n (15)

[0125]

[0126] Where: te is the minimum number of time periods that the unit needs to maintain during a round of output increase or decrease, t e >1;α i,n,t ∈{0,1},β i,n,t ∈{0,1} is the indicator variable for upward and downward adjustment of unit power, α i,n,t =1 means the power is adjusted downward in time period t+1; β i,n,t =1 means the power in period t+1 is adjusted upward; when the power does not change, α i,n,t =0 or β i,n,t =0;MAX αβ Indicates the upper limit of the power adjustment (upward and downward) time periods.

[0127] In addition, in order to ensure that the hydropower unit can maintain stable output for a certain period of time after each output adjustment, e The introduction of the duration constraint of formula (17) can reduce the loss caused by frequent adjustments of the units. More importantly, it can reduce the frequent fluctuations of the downstream flow, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the ecological flow.

[0128] The schematic diagram of the change of the output of the hydropower unit is shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.

[0129]

[0130] S2.5: Use relaxation method to convert linear equality constraints in the model into linear inequality constraints. The details are as follows:

[0131]

[0132] Where: ε is the allowable deviation of the cascade power generation plan, and the above formula replaces the equality constraint of formula (34) in the model.

[0133] S2.6: Based on the processing methods of S2.1-S2.5, a standardized MILP model is obtained, the model input data is sorted, and the model solution and result analysis are realized by calling CPLEX optimization software in JAVA.

[0134] The method provided in this embodiment is tested with a complementary system consisting of 15 units of 4 hydropower stations and 2 photovoltaic groups in a cascade of a river basin in the southwest region as the actual engineering background. The simplified cascade hydraulic relationship and grid topology are shown in the attached figure. Figure 4As shown. After the cascade hydropower and photovoltaic groups are connected to the grid, they are sent out by step-by-step voltage boosting, facing section constraints of different voltage levels. There are different sending sections for different units of the same power station, and there are also situations where units of different power stations send out at the same section. A typical day scene in the dry season is selected, with 1d as the scheduling cycle and 15min as the scheduling period. The interval flow, cascade hydropower station load, photovoltaic predicted output, and grid parameters are all set with reference to the actual situation of the grid, and the uncertainty of photovoltaic prediction is not considered for the time being. JAVA1.7 coding is used, and the computing environment is a Dell workstation with 4 cores, 8 threads, 8.0G memory, and a main frequency of 3.6GHz. The calculation parameters of the MILP model include 9680 variables (including the introduced auxiliary variables), 11410 constraints, the convergence accuracy is set to the default 1.0e-4, the calculation time is 27.28s, and the optimal solution is obtained by convergence, which can fully meet the short-term optimization scheduling timeliness of the complementary system. Appendix Figure 5-7 The cascade hydropower output process, the output process of some hydropower units and the power transmission process of each section are given respectively. It can be seen intuitively that the output of each power station obtained by the method provided in this embodiment meets the requirements of the cascade power generation plan very well, and the average deviation between the actual output process and the power generation plan is 0.84%, which meets the actual operation requirements; the output of each unit effectively avoids the vibration area, meets the unit climbing capacity constraint requirements, ensures the safe operation of the unit, and meets the unit's stable output duration (1h) and minimum start-up and shutdown duration (2h) requirements, ensuring the stability of the unit output; fully utilize the cascade hydropower regulation capacity and section transmission capacity to achieve the spatiotemporal redistribution of electric power, reduce the output of hydropower units during peak hours, promote the level of photovoltaic consumption, reduce the amount of abandoned electricity and improve the executability of the scheduling results.

[0135] Compared with the previous single-stage hydropower and photovoltaic system independent operation mode, the independent operation mode aims to minimize water consumption under a given stage load. By comparison, it is found that the method provided in this embodiment has improved both in terms of increasing the overall power consumption and reducing the abandoned water power, and better promoted the consumption of photovoltaic power. The comparison results are shown in Table 1.

[0137]

[0138] In order to realize the above-mentioned cascade hydropower and photovoltaic short-term complementary scheduling method with the unit as the scheduling unit, this embodiment also provides a cascade hydropower and photovoltaic short-term complementary scheduling system with the unit as the scheduling unit, and the system includes:

[0139] The data input module is used to automatically read and modify data related to cascade hydropower, photovoltaics and power grid.

[0140] The model building module is used to construct the maximum objective function of the short-term complementary system that can absorb the maximum amount of electricity, and set the constraints related to the power station, unit and power grid. The model here is the model of the short-term optimal dispatch of the maximum amount of electricity that can be absorbed by the cascade hydro-photovoltaic complementary system mentioned above.

[0141] The model linearization conversion module is used to convert the constructed nonlinear model into a standard MILP model. Different linearization processing methods are used according to different constraint types. For the specific conversion process, please refer to S2.

[0142] The model solving module solves the model by coding and calling CPLEX optimization software in the JVAV environment to obtain the optimization scheduling results. For the specific solution process, please refer to S2.

[0143] The result output and analysis module is used to generate relevant graphic reports such as the output process of cascade hydropower, the output process of units, and the cross-section transmission process, compare the scheduling results of different models, and analyze the rationality of the scheduling results and the effect of model implementation.

[0144] Compared with the prior art, the method and system for short-term complementary scheduling of cascade hydropower and photovoltaic power with units as scheduling units provided in this embodiment have the following beneficial effects:

[0145] (1) Taking the unit as the smallest dispatching unit, the refined modeling of each unit is realized. The results show that the operation of the unit can not only meet various constraints such as the duration of start-up and shutdown, climbing ability, and non-continuous vibration zone, but also avoid frequent output fluctuations, improve the executability of the complementary system power generation plan, and better meet the actual dispatching needs.

[0146] (2) By adopting linearization methods and modeling techniques such as piecewise linear approximation, introduction of 0-1 integer variables, power head discretization, triangle weight technology, and constraint relaxation, the original MINLP model is transformed into a standard MILP model, which is suitable for mature commercial solution tools, greatly improves the solution efficiency, and meets the requirements of short-term optimization scheduling;
