[0002] The load growth caused by the access of large-scale electric heat equipment to the distribution network will lead to insufficient load-carrying capacity of the distribution network, while the access of electric heat storage equipment to the distribution network can effectively shift the peak and fill the valley, reducing the load demand during the peak electricity consumption period. In the prior art, firstly, the heat load is generated for the purpose of improving the effectiveness of the scenario, but the existing modeling methods consider relatively single factors and have insufficient modeling accuracy.

[0124] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0125] The multi-objective expansion planning method for taking into account the access of large-scale electric heat storage equipment to the distribution network is specifically implemented according to the following steps:

[0126] Step 1. When modeling the building heat load characteristics, it is necessary to fully consider the influence of outdoor temperature, building structure and indoor-outdoor heat transfer. The influence of wind speed is considered in the analysis of heat transfer characteristics to make the modeling result of the heat load more accurate. Various factors affecting the building heat process, such as Figure 1 , based on the analysis of the influencing factors of the building heat process, the time-varying equation of the internal temperature of the heating building formed by the building envelope structure is:

[0127] (5)

[0128] In the formula, is the demand for electric heating load; is the heat obtained by heat transfer between the interior of the building space and the outside through the wall at time is the heat obtained by heat transfer between the interior and the outside through the window at time is the heat obtained by air exchange in the interior at time is the heat sent into the interior through the heating system at time

[0129] An electric heating load model is established according to the temperature time-varying equation, that is, C in formula (5) a .

[0130] Establish time-varying equations for each part in formula (5):

[0131] (1) Calculate The heat obtained by heat transfer through the wall from the outside to the inside of the building space at time , which is expressed as:

[0132] (1)

[0133] In the formula: is the heating area; is the equivalent wall area per unit heating area; is the heat transfer coefficient between the inner surface of the wall per unit area and the air, which is related to the temperature of the inner surface of the wall; , are respectively the indoor and outdoor temperatures at time

[0134] (2) The heat obtained by heat transfer through the window from the outside to the inside of the room at time, which is expressed as:

[0135] (2)

[0137] (3) The heat obtained by air exchange in the room at time , which is expressed as:

[0138] (3)

[0139] In the formula: is the outdoor wind speed; is the comprehensive heat transfer coefficient;

[0140] (4) The heat output of the heating equipment refers to the heat transferred into the room by the heating system. The heating system specifically refers to the direct-heating electric heating equipment and the heat storage electric boiler here; The heat sent into the room by the heating system at time , which is expressed as:

[0141] (4)

[0142] In the formula, is the heat provided by the heat storage electric boiler at time is Heat provided by the instant direct electric heating equipment

[0143] Step 2: Establish a model for the electric heat storage boiler, which includes an electric boiler and a heat storage device; the specific process is as follows:

[0144] The electric boiler is also a coupling unit for energy form conversion, and it relies on the energization of electrical components to achieve the heating purpose. At the same time, the electric boiler does not produce combustion chemical reactions, can achieve zero carbon emissions, and has high heating efficiency and automation level. Establish an output model for the electric boiler, which is expressed as:

[0145] (6)

[0146] In the formula: and are respectively The electricity consumption and heat production of the electric boiler during the is the electro-thermal conversion efficiency of the electric boiler, and its value is generally greater than 95%;

[0147] After the electric boiler is equipped with a heat storage device, it breaks the traditional "electricity determined by heat" operation mode, can effectively shift the peak and fill the valley, makes the electricity consumption of the electric boiler not restricted by the heat load demand, and can flexibly decide the operation strategy of the electric heat storage boiler according to the output of wind and photovoltaic power sources. Establish a mathematical model for the heat storage capacity of the heat storage device, which is expressed as:

[0148] (7)

[0150] Step 3: The upper and lower layers of the bilevel programming model respond to each other, and at the same time, information is transmitted between the upper and lower layers. On the premise of meeting the reliability of power grid operation, comprehensively consider the total cost of distribution network planning, load rate uniformity, carbon emissions, etc., and establish a bilevel programming model. The upper-level planning realizes the minimization of carbon emissions by making decisions on the operation strategy of the heat storage electric boiler. On the basis of the operation strategy determined by the upper level, the lower-level planning aims at the total cost of distribution network planning and system load rate uniformity, and conducts a multi-objective expansion planning for the distribution network. The bilevel planning structure is as Figure 2 shown.

[0151] The upper layer combines the output characteristics of wind and photovoltaic power sources, makes decisions on the operation strategy of heat storage electric boilers with the goal of minimizing carbon emissions, and superimposes the impact of the decision results on the load onto the typical daily load curve and transmits it to the lower layer as the basis for the distribution network expansion planning. The upper layer model makes decisions on the operation strategy of heat storage electric boilers in a more flexible way, and while achieving the low-carbon goal, it can also transmit relevant information to the lower layer to improve the uniformity of the distribution system.

[0154] The upper layer takes the minimum carbon emissions as the objective function. On the power source side, wind and photovoltaic power sources can achieve zero carbon emissions, and the main source of carbon emissions is thermal power units. Therefore, only the carbon emissions of thermal power units need to be calculated, and the expression is as follows:

[0223] Step 4. Solve using the nested hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm. In the model, the operation strategy of the upper-layer heat storage electric boiler is transmitted to the lower layer, and the lower layer transmits the distribution network planning results to the upper layer. After the upper layer updates the parameters, the upper and lower layers are iteratively solved in the next round. The upper and lower layers are iteratively looped to obtain the final operation strategy of the heat storage electric boiler and the distribution network expansion planning results.

[0224] The nested hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm is used for optimization and solution. The double-layer optimization model has an interactive correlation in the respective optimization processes. The lower-layer distribution network expansion planning is based on the operation strategy of the upper-layer heat storage electric boiler and the decision results of typical scenarios. At the same time, the total operation cost and load rate uniformity obtained by the lower-layer simulation will be returned to the upper layer as part of the upper-layer optimization goal. Through double-layer iterative optimization, the final planning results are improved. The algorithm flow chart is as Figure 3 shown, and the specific process is as follows:

[0225] Step 4.1. Establish a node distribution system model of the distribution network, and input distribution network parameters, initial grid structure, distribution network line selection, and installation and operation costs into the model;

[0226] Step 4.2: Initialize the upper-layer particle population and the number of iterations. Model the typical daily electric and heat load curve according to formula (5), and superimpose it on the typical daily electric load curve to obtain the load curve including electric and heat loads. Perform integer encoding on the ordinate of the load curve including electric and heat loads, and randomly generate the initial upper-layer particle swarm;

[0227] Step 4.3: From the upper-layer objective function and conditional constraints, and based on the output of the original electric heating equipment at each time period, use the particle swarm optimization algorithm to find the output of the electric boiler with heat storage at each time period. Eliminate and update the solutions that do not meet the constraint conditions. Superimpose the electric load demand generated by the heat storage of the electric boiler with heat storage on the load curve including electric and heat loads, and use the superimposed curve as the basic parameter to input into the lower-layer model;

[0228] Step 4.4: Initialize the number of iterations and population of the lower-layer particles. Perform binary encoding on the installation positions of the lines to be built, randomly generate the lower-layer particle velocities and positions, and initialize the lower-layer particle swarm;

[0229] Step 4.5: Expand the lines according to the output scheme of the electric boiler with heat storage determined by the upper layer, and return to Step 4.3;

[0230] Step 4.6: Calculate the construction cost, operation cost, variance of load rate, and range of system load rate. Execute the objective function of the lower-layer planning model. Update the individual extreme values and global extreme values of the decision variables of each line corresponding to each grid structure scheme in the lower layer according to the curve obtained by superimposing in Step 4.3, and use the global extreme value as the optimal solution corresponding to each scheme; Update the velocities and positions of the lower-layer particles;

[0231] Step 4.7: Determine whether the convergence condition of the lower-layer planning model is met. If yes, proceed to the next step; otherwise, return to Step 4.5;

[0232] Step 4.8: According to the lower-layer planning results, calculate the carbon emissions of the upper layer. Combine the lower-layer data and execute the objective function of the upper-layer planning model to obtain the upper-layer individual extreme value. Use the upper-layer individual extreme value as the global extreme value, and update the velocities and positions of the upper-layer particles;

[0233] Step 4.9: Determine whether the convergence condition of the upper-layer planning model is met. If yes, execute Step 4.10; otherwise, return to Step 4.3;

[0234] Step 4.10: Output the lower-layer global extreme value as the optimal planning scheme.

[0235] Embodiment

[0236] The present invention takes the IEEE33 distribution system as an example for simulation verification. The initial network of the IEEE33 distribution system is as Figure 4 :

[0237] The distribution system has 33 nodes, a base voltage of 12.66 kV, 32 lines, a power base value of 10 MV·A, and 32 candidate lines.

[0238] The total capacity of the heat storage electric boiler is 50 MW, and its expected installation locations are nodes 2, 6, 10, 14, and 30 respectively. The load, wind power output, and photovoltaic power output data used are from actual substations, wind farms, and photovoltaic power plants, and the outdoor temperature is from the actual data of a certain area in Northeast China. The typical scenarios in the heating season are selected according to the historical data of load, wind power, photovoltaic power, and outdoor temperature. The data of the typical scenarios are as Figure 5 shown, and the outdoor temperature is as Figure 6 shown.

[0239] Under the given heating building structure characteristic parameters and meteorological conditions, factors such as light intensity and building parameters (specific parameters are shown in Table 1) are substituted into equations (1) to (5) to obtain the heat load demand of the system. The heat load is superimposed on the electrical load, and the result is as Figure 7 .

[0240] Table 1

[0241]

[0242] To prove the effectiveness and rationality of the method proposed in the present invention, considering the economy, carbon emissions, and uniformity of the network topology of the distribution network planning, the model of the present invention is compared and analyzed with various models. Specifically as follows: Model 1, the heat storage electric boiler conducts single-layer multi-objective planning for the distribution network under the traditional two-stage control method; Model 2, conducts two-layer single-objective planning for the distribution network without considering uniformity; Model 3, the two-layer multi-objective planning method proposed in the present invention.

[0243] Figure 8 For the decision results of the operation strategies of the 3 models, the optimization effect after adopting Figure 8 the decision results is as Figure 9 . The carbon emissions under the 3 models are 640.99 t, 420.57 t, and 446.37 t respectively.

[0244] It can be seen from the comparison between Model 1 and Model 3 that: in Model 1, the heat storage period is fixed, all in the low electricity consumption period, while in Model 3, the heat storage period is more flexible. Compared with Model 1, the load curve after optimization in Model 3 is smoother, the peak shaving and valley filling effect is better, and the carbon emissions are reduced by 30.4%. This is because in Model 1, the operation mode of the heat storage electric boiler is the traditional two-stage control method, and a more flexible operation strategy can better play the peak shifting characteristic of the heat storage electric boiler. Moreover, Model 1 does not consider the output characteristics of wind and photovoltaic power sources, and the heat storage electric boiler stores heat during the period when thermal power units account for a large proportion, so the carbon emissions increase.

[0245] From the comparison between Model 2 and Model 3, it can be seen that: Model 2 has fewer heat storage periods, but overall, the heat storage capacity in each period is greater. After optimization, the peak shaving and valley filling effect of Model 3 is slightly better than that of Model 2, but the carbon emissions increase by 5.7%. This is because in Model 3, the lower-level objective function comprehensively considers two objectives, namely economy and load rate uniformity, and has greater restrictions on the operating conditions of the heat storage electric boiler. Model 2 has no load rate uniformity restriction and can store heat more efficiently during periods when the output ratio of wind and photovoltaic power sources is large, so the carbon emissions are less. Although Model 2 is slightly better than Model 3 in terms of total cost and carbon emissions, due to the fact that Model 2 does not consider the impact of load rate uniformity, the system reliability is poor, and the analysis of uniformity will be elaborated below.

[0246] The results of newly built distribution lines for the 3 models are shown in Table 2, and the relevant indicators such as the total planning cost are shown in Table 3. The load rate uniformity indicators of each model are as Figure 10 shown.

[0247] Table 2

[0248]

[0249] Note: m(i−j) in the newly built line represents a line numbered m built between nodes i and j.

[0250] Table 3

[0251]

[0252] From the comparison between Model 1 and Model 3, it can be seen that: The number of newly built lines in Model 3 is 2 less than that in Model 1, and the total cost is reduced by 19.7%. This is because under the two-stage control mode of the heat storage electric boiler in Model 1, the load increases significantly during the heat storage period, and the line carrying capacity is insufficient, resulting in an increase in the number of newly built lines and an increase in the total cost. In terms of uniformity, the load of the heat storage electric boiler installation nodes in Model 1 fluctuates greatly during the heat storage period, and the load rate range increases, so the uniformity of Model 1 is slightly worse.

[0253] From the comparison between Model 2 and Model 3, it can be seen that: The number of newly built lines in Model 3 is 1 more than that in Model 2, and the total cost increases by 10.2%. This is because in Model 3, the lower-level objective function considers the load rate uniformity objective and has higher requirements for the line carrying capacity. In order to maintain the load rate uniformity level, more lines need to be expanded, so the total cost is higher. In terms of uniformity, since Model 2 does not consider the impact of load rate uniformity, the load rate of some distribution lines is close to the threshold, and at this time, the lines are in a heavy load state. If a certain line fails, it is easy to cause large-scale power flow transfer and large-scale cascading failures. However, Model 3 comprehensively considers the network topology structure of the distribution network, making the line load rates of the distribution network more uniform and effectively improving the system operation reliability.

[0254] Through the above method, the multi-objective expansion planning method for the access of large-scale electric heat storage equipment to the distribution network in the present invention has the characteristics of high accuracy in heat load modeling and strong uniformity of line load rates after distribution network planning. First, to improve the effectiveness of typical scenarios, heat loads are generated by comprehensively considering building structures, indoor and outdoor heat transfer characteristics, and meteorological factors such as light intensity. At the same time, the influence of wind speed is considered in terms of heat transfer factors, and this method can more accurately realize the modeling of heat loads. Secondly, in terms of the decision-making of the operation strategy of the electric heat storage boiler, the present invention considers the output characteristics of wind and solar power sources at each time period, and determines the operation strategy of the electric heat storage boiler with the lowest carbon emission as the goal. While reducing carbon emissions, the more flexible operation strategy can also effectively shift peaks and fill valleys, reducing the power supply pressure on the distribution network during peak electricity consumption periods. Finally, the present invention conducts multi-objective expansion planning for the distribution network with the goals of economy and load rate uniformity, and uses a nested hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm for solution. The solution results have the characteristics of low total cost and strong uniformity of line load rates.
