Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy storage control technology, and in particular to a method for coordinated control of photovoltaic power generation and energy storage based on power prediction. Background Technology

[0002] Under the dual-carbon goals, photovoltaic (PV) power generation has developed rapidly across China in recent years due to its clean, efficient, and renewable nature. However, PV power generation is susceptible to external environmental influences, resulting in unstable and highly volatile output. The grid's absorption capacity and power system regulation resources, commensurate with its development scale, are facing increasing challenges. Introducing energy storage technology can achieve energy transfer, reduce power fluctuations, and smooth power output. The combined operation of PV and energy storage has become an effective means to address these issues. Currently, the application and control of energy storage in PV power generation systems mainly focus on reducing PV power fluctuations and collaboratively participating in grid ancillary services. The energy storage system and PV power generation are independent of each other, typically employing a control method where the energy storage system passively receives power prediction results and PV power generation data to calculate active or reactive power compensation. Furthermore, the short-term (24-hour) and ultra-short-term (4-hour) power predictions of PV power plant prediction systems are calculated using only meteorological forecast data and historical data from the plant, employing physical, statistical, and deep learning methods. Due to the influence of the prediction time scale, the accuracy of the two prediction methods differs significantly, and factors such as the operating status of the PV plant and the energy storage system are not taken into account. Currently, the integrated operation and control of photovoltaic and energy storage systems has not been able to achieve efficient synergy and interaction between the photovoltaic power generation system and the energy storage system. The efficient utilization of energy storage systems in photovoltaic power plants needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0020] As a preferred technical solution, this method controls the power output according to a setting where the discharge power is equal to or greater than the plant's power consumption, thereby reducing the amount of electricity discharged from the photovoltaic power station.

[0021] As a preferred technical solution, this method stops energy storage discharge when the energy storage SOC is less than a set threshold in the energy storage power supply mode.
