Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0063] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for suppressing overvoltage in a distributed photovoltaic power station, which can suppress overvoltage in a distributed photovoltaic power station by adopting a multi-mode coordinated control method without the need for access to voltage regulating devices such as capacitor banks and transformers.

[0064] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0065] Typical distributed photovoltaic power station structure Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1, multiple photovoltaic power generation units are connected in parallel to a common low-voltage bus, and then connected to the system after being stepped up by a transformer.

[0066] The present invention proposes a multi-mode coordinated control method for the overvoltage problem of distributed photovoltaic power stations. Figure 2 As shown. The coordinated control method mainly consists of two parts: the coordinated control strategy of the power station and the switching of multiple operating modes of distributed photovoltaic power generation units. Among them, the coordinated control strategy of the power station is responsible for real-time monitoring of the low-voltage bus voltage and controlling the operating mode of each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit; each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit switches between the three operating modes of maximum power mode (MPP mode), reactive power control mode, and maximum power factor control mode according to the coordinated control strategy of the power station, thereby effectively suppressing the overvoltage of the power station.

[0067] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an overvoltage suppression method for a distributed photovoltaic power station, the method comprising the following steps:

[0068] Step 101, in the maximum power mode, determine whether the low-voltage side bus voltage of the distributed photovoltaic power station exceeds the bus voltage upper limit value, and obtain a first judgment result; the maximum power mode is to use the maximum power control method to control the operation of each photovoltaic power generation unit in the distributed photovoltaic power station.

[0069] Bus voltage monitoring strategy Real-time monitoring of low voltage bus voltage U T . If U T Does not exceed the bus voltage upper limit U T_lim , that is U T ≤U T_lim When the bus voltage monitoring strategy controls each photovoltaic power generation unit to operate in MPP (Maximum Power) mode; if the bus overvoltage occurs, that is, U T >U T_lim , then the reactive power coordinated control strategy is entered and the reactive power control mode is switched to, that is, step 102 is executed.

[0070] Step 102, if the first judgment result indicates yes, then switch to the reactive power control mode, when the upper limit of the reactive power control mode is reached, judge whether the low-voltage side bus voltage still exceeds the upper limit of the bus voltage, and obtain a second judgment result; the switching to the reactive power control mode is to adjust the reactive power of each photovoltaic power generation unit to reduce the low-voltage side bus voltage; the upper limit of the reactive power control mode is that the total reactive power of the distributed photovoltaic power station reaches the upper limit of the total reactive power that can be generated by the distributed photovoltaic power station;

[0071] The purpose of the coordinated reactive power control strategy of the power station is to T >U T_lim When the active power of the photovoltaic power generation unit is ensured to operate in the MPP mode, the apparent power capacity of the grid-connected converter is fully utilized, and the grid-connected converter is used to generate reactive power to control the voltage (because the grid-connected converter can reduce the power station voltage when absorbing reactive power, the embodiment of the present invention regards the photovoltaic power generation unit absorbing reactive power as positive).

[0072] The reactive power coordination control strategy of the power station, i.e., the specific steps of step 102 include:

[0073] (1) Calculate the upper limit value Q of reactive power that can be generated by each photovoltaic power generation unit i_lim :

[0074]

[0075] Where i = 1, 2, ... n. n means that there are n distributed photovoltaic power generation units in the power station; P i and S e_iThey respectively represent the active power and rated apparent capacity of the grid-connected converter of the i-th photovoltaic power generation unit.

[0076] (2) Calculate the upper limit of the total reactive power that can be generated by the power station Q T_lim :

[0077]

[0078] (3) Calculate the reactive power coefficient k of each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit i :

[0079]

[0080] (4) Calculate the low voltage bus voltage U T and bus voltage upper limit U T_lim The difference ΔU T :

[0081] ΔU T =U T -U T_lim

[0082] (5) When ΔU T >0, PI control (proportional / integral control) is adopted, and ΔU T Generate the total reactive power command Q of the power station T_ref .

[0083] (6) Calculate the reactive power command value Q of each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit i_ref :

[0084] Q i_ref =k i Q T_ref

[0085] Among them, Q i_ref is the reactive power instruction of the i-th photovoltaic power generation unit.

[0086] (7) Control each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit to switch to reactive power control mode. Each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit executes reactive power instruction Q while maintaining active power MPP mode. i =Q i_ref , implement power station voltage control (Qi is the actual reactive power of each photovoltaic power generation unit), at this time, the grid-connected converter apparent power S of each photovoltaic power generation unit i =S e_i .

[0087] (8) After executing the reactive power coordinated control strategy, if Q T_ref ≤Q T_lim And U T ≤U T_lim, it indicates that the reactive power coordinated control strategy can effectively suppress the overvoltage of the power station, so the control strategy and the operation mode of the photovoltaic power generation unit are maintained unchanged; if Q T_ref Reach Q T_lim (i.e. Q i_ref =Q i_lim ) when the power station is still overvoltage (i.e. U T >U T_lim ), then enter the maximum power factor control strategy.

[0088] Step 103: If the second judgment result indicates yes, switch to the maximum power factor control mode; the maximum power factor control mode is the maximum power mode.

[0089] The maximum power factor control strategy maintains the apparent power S of each photovoltaic power generation unit. i =S e_i Under the condition of constant, the low voltage bus voltage U T Does not exceed the bus voltage upper limit U T_lim (U T ≤U T_lim ) as a constraint, with the goal of minimizing the total active power loss of the power station, by reducing the active power P of each photovoltaic power generation unit i To increase the maximum reactive power Q of the grid-connected converter i_lim , thereby achieving effective suppression of power station overvoltage.

[0090] Specifically, calculate the maximum reactive power Q of each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit i_lim For active power P i The first derivative pΔQ i_lim ,Depend on:

[0091]

[0092] available:

[0093]

[0094] Among them, P i_0 represents the current active power of the i-th photovoltaic power generation unit, and p represents the differential operator.

[0095] The above formula shows that P i_0 The larger the pΔQ i_lim The larger the absolute value of , the larger the increment of the reactive power upper limit that can be obtained by reducing the same active power ΔPi. Therefore, when further suppressing the overvoltage of the power station by reducing the active power, the active power P should be reduced first. i_0 High, that is, a photovoltaic power generation unit with a high power factor.

[0096] Control each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit to switch to the maximum power factor control mode and control the maximum power factor value and The value of decreases gradually from 1 but never falls below 0. As the value of decreases from 1, the active power of the photovoltaic power generation unit will gradually decrease, and the absorbed reactive power will gradually increase.

[0097] When each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit switches to the maximum power factor control mode:

[0098] (1) If the power factor of the photovoltaic power generation unit is The running state remains unchanged;

[0099] (2) If the power factor of the photovoltaic power generation unit is Then maintain the apparent power S i =S e_i unchanged, reduce active power P i , and at the same time emits reactive power according to the following formula.

[0100]

[0101] Step 104, in reactive power control mode or maximum power factor control mode, when receiving the maximum power mode instruction, switch to the maximum power mode and return to the step "in maximum power mode, determine whether the low-voltage side bus voltage of the distributed photovoltaic power station exceeds the bus voltage upper limit value, and obtain the first judgment result".

[0102] That is, when each distributed photovoltaic power generation unit receives the MPP operation mode instruction, the active power P i According to the maximum power mode, execute the reactive power command Q i =Q i_ref =0.
