Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power technology, specifically to a method for assessing the impact of wind and solar grid connection scale on the operation of mixed-flow hydropower units. Background Technology
[0002] Large-scale wind and solar power plants are about to be connected to the grid. However, wind and solar power generation is characterized by randomness, volatility, and unpredictability, which will affect the safe and stable operation of the power grid. Hydropower, as a good regulating power source, can effectively eliminate the impact of wind and solar power plants on grid stability when operating in conjunction with them. Utilizing the excellent regulating performance of hydropower and the storage and release of energy storage devices can regulate fluctuations in the grid in time and space, reducing the impact of grid connection on grid stability. Therefore, considering the impact on hydropower flexibility under the condition of large-scale wind and solar grid connection has become an urgent issue. How to quantify the hydropower flexibility after large-scale wind and solar grid connection is a key factor in promoting the coordinated development and large-scale consumption of hydropower, wind, and solar power. At the same time, in multi-energy complementary power generation systems of hydropower, wind, and solar power, electricity production is related to the development of enterprises, and the safe transmission and minimum loss transmission of electricity are matters of concern to power generation enterprises.
[0003] Power system flexibility is not a new or isolated concept; it is an essential requirement for power systems to cope with various random factors and uncertain conditions and maintain power and energy balance at different time scales. It runs through every stage and process of power system development and operation. The introduction of large-scale intermittent power sources increases the randomness of system operation, and the corresponding flexibility requirements directly affect the power balance of the entire system.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a comprehensive evaluation method for the impact of wind and solar grid connection scale on the long-term operational flexibility of mixed-flow hydropower units is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
