Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of new energy technology, and in particular to a photovoltaic power station control system and method. Background Art

[0002] New energy sources have replaced synchronous power sources in large quantities, the system's rotational inertia has decreased, and the frequency and voltage regulation capabilities have decreased. The role of new energy sources has gradually changed from an auxiliary power source to a main power source, and from "passive following" to "active support" for grid security, becoming the main carrier for maintaining grid frequency and voltage. Grid-type photovoltaic inverters are increasingly appearing in photovoltaic power stations.

[0003] At present, the control method of photovoltaic power stations mainly uses the photovoltaic inverters of the photovoltaic power station itself for control. Each photovoltaic inverter uses a dual closed-loop control method of voltage outer loop and current inner loop to control the photovoltaic power station. Figure 1 Given an existing distributed photovoltaic power station architecture, the above control method is difficult to apply to a grid-type photovoltaic power station with a large number of grid-type photovoltaic inverters running in parallel and relying on a distributed photovoltaic power station architecture. The reasons are as follows:

[0004] According to the voltage outer loop control method of the photovoltaic inverter, the voltage speed, terminal voltage amplitude and electrical angle of each photovoltaic inverter will be determined by the input torque. The input torque of different photovoltaic inverters may be different. Therefore, the voltage speeds of multiple photovoltaic inverters will have slight differences, the terminal voltage amplitudes will have slight differences, and the electrical angles will also have slight differences. When multiple photovoltaic inverters are operated in parallel and the voltage outer loop control is performed separately, the introduction of different voltage speeds, terminal voltage amplitudes and electrical angles will generate active circulating current or oscillation. Since the terminal voltages of each photovoltaic inverter are different, reactive station circulating current will be caused in multiple photovoltaic inverters. Summary of the Invention

The reason for this is usually that when multiple photovoltaic inverters execute the voltage inner loop control, the introduced voltage speed, generator voltage amplitude, and electrical angle are different. This solution replaces the original voltage control closed loop of the photovoltaic inverter with current instructions, eliminating the need to introduce voltage speed, generator voltage amplitude, and electrical angle during the photovoltaic inverter voltage outer loop control. This can destroy the active / reactive circulating current and oscillation conditions formed by the photovoltaic inverter's multiple voltage control, prevent the photovoltaic inverter from generating active circulating current or oscillation, and avoid causing reactive circulating current within the photovoltaic inverter. This can improve the stability of the photovoltaic power station control and ensure the stable operation of the grid-connected photovoltaic power station. The output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter can be adjusted by the bus voltage, which can prevent the bus voltage from exceeding the normal bus voltage range and achieve protection for the grid-connected photovoltaic power station. In addition, current regulation can be used to ensure that all photovoltaic inverters reach the maximum power point inverter, reducing power loss and improving the safety and stability of the grid-connected photovoltaic power station operation.

[0064] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0065] In traditional AC power systems, which are primarily powered by synchronous power sources like hydropower and thermal power, renewable energy sources serve as auxiliary power sources, primarily replacing clean energy. Establishing and maintaining grid frequency and voltage primarily relies on synchronous power sources. Renewable energy sources, such as photovoltaic and wind power, will gradually become the primary energy source.

[0066] Currently, grid-connected photovoltaic inverters typically employ power supply control strategies, including virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control, voltage-frequency (VF) mode, and droop control. VSG control strategies still rely on dual closed-loop control to achieve stable voltage output. The outer voltage loop actively supports frequency and voltage by simulating the device's equations of motion and electromagnetic transient equations, while the inner current loop accelerates system response and prevents transient overcurrent damage to power electronic devices. Existing photovoltaic power station-level control is designed based on traditional photovoltaic inverters. Figure 2 A dual closed-loop control method of the voltage outer loop and current inner loop of the photovoltaic inverter based on the VSG control strategy is proposed.

The dual closed-loop control method is also applied to the PI controller, DP / ABC converter, PWM pulse width modulator and control switch circuit.

[0067] The grid-type units provided by this solution can be applied to the following scenarios:

[0068] (1) New energy base delivery scenario without conventional power supply support

[0069] Large-scale new energy bases do not have the conditions to build supporting conventional power sources such as thermal power generation. Large-scale new energy bases will face the challenge of operating without the support of synchronous machines, and the power system safety and stability issues brought about by their grid connection will also become more prominent and severe.

[0070] (2) New energy base and conventional power supply bundled delivery scenario

[0071] Due to the inverse distribution of energy resources and load centers, the development and utilization of new energy sources is characterized by large-scale development and long-distance transmission. Large-scale new energy power generation bases often bundle with local thermal power plants and transmit AC and DC power to other locations. However, this AC and DC transmission method for new energy and thermal power has always faced prominent issues such as insufficient supporting thermal power capacity, insufficient synchronous support reserve capacity, and system stability. In particular, issues such as transient stability, small-disturbance stability, and subsynchronous oscillations have increased significantly in recent years.

[0072] (3) New energy access to weak power grid scenarios

[0073] As the proportion of renewable energy installed capacity continues to increase, the integration of renewable energy into weak local grids has triggered new stability issues. In the future, most renewable energy sites will be located in remote areas and connected to the grid via long-distance transmission lines. Traditional current source control methods have many limitations in terms of system voltage and frequency regulation. They have limited synchronization support capabilities for grids stretching hundreds of kilometers, and cannot meet the requirements for stable operation in weak grids.

[0074] (4) New energy isolated grid operation scenario

[0075] At the distribution network level, the traditional form, structure, and function of the network will undergo transformation. Ensuring supply, stability, and safety will become major challenges for future distribution networks, and "new energy + energy storage" will become the mainstream development model. As installed capacity of new energy sources continues to increase, the failure rate of distribution networks will also increase under current technological conditions. In the event of a grid failure, the "new energy + energy storage + load" approach, forming an isolated, source-grid-load-storage system, can improve power supply reliability for users.

[0076] Figure 3A schematic diagram of the topology of a traditional photovoltaic power generation unit is also provided. Traditional photovoltaic power stations use current source type (grid-following type) photovoltaic inverters. Each inverter collects the terminal voltage and performs phase locking to obtain the amplitude and angle of the grid voltage, and achieves maximum power output through the voltage / power outer loop and current inner loop. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, in a conventional current source photovoltaic inverter control strategy, each inverter is controlled independently, and the entire photovoltaic power station is composed of several inverters connected in parallel. For example, a 100MW photovoltaic power station is composed of 200 0.5MW photovoltaic inverters connected in parallel.

[0077] The details are described in detail through the following embodiments.

[0078] Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the relationship between the photovoltaic power station control system and the photovoltaic power station in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, in order to improve the stability of photovoltaic power station control and thereby ensure the stable operation of the grid-type photovoltaic power station, this embodiment provides a photovoltaic power station control system. In this embodiment, the photovoltaic power station control system includes: a power station control layer and a voltage outer loop controller; the voltage outer loop controller is connected to the power station control layer, and is also used to connect to the grid connection point and multiple photovoltaic inverters of the grid-type photovoltaic power station, and each photovoltaic inverter is connected to the grid connection point; wherein, the power station control layer is used to send the adjustment instruction of the grid-type photovoltaic power station to the voltage outer loop controller; the voltage outer loop controller is used to receive the adjustment instruction of the grid-type photovoltaic power station sent by the power station control layer and receive the grid connection point working data sent by the grid connection point; according to the adjustment instruction and the grid connection point working data, determine the current instruction corresponding to each photovoltaic inverter, and send the current instruction to the corresponding photovoltaic inverter, so that each photovoltaic inverter adjusts its own current according to the corresponding current instruction.

[0081] In order to further improve the accuracy of determining the current instruction, in one embodiment of the present application, the voltage outer loop controller includes: a first current determination unit and a second current determination unit; the first current determination unit is used to determine the total current control instruction of the grid-connected photovoltaic power station according to the adjustment instruction and the grid-connected point working data; the second current determination unit is used to determine the current instruction corresponding to each photovoltaic inverter according to the total current control instruction and the preset current distribution rule; the current instruction corresponding to each photovoltaic inverter is sent to the photovoltaic inverter.

[0083] Specifically, the functions implemented by the voltage outer loop controller are equivalent to the functions implemented by an independent control layer, which is the master control unit of the so-called master-slave control structure and is responsible for the voltage outer loop control of the grid-type photovoltaic power station.

After feedback adjustment, the total current control instruction of the entire photovoltaic power station is generated The direct-axis current can be equivalent to the active current, and the alternating current can be equivalent to the reactive current.

[0085] It should be noted that the rotor motion equation and the electromagnetic equation are only one method of constructing the voltage. Other methods such as VF control and droop control can also be used, which are not enumerated here. The slave control unit of this solution can be a photovoltaic inverter.

[0086] Specifically, the functions implemented by the above-mentioned photovoltaic inverters in combination can be equivalent to the functions implemented by an execution layer. Based on the voltage outer loop control structure of the intermediate layer of the grid-type photovoltaic power station, the photovoltaic inverters have no voltage outer loop and are all configured with a current inner loop.

By configuring the data acquisition devices, the time from when the current signal is sent by the voltage outer loop controller to when it is received by each inverter is no more than 20 milliseconds. The data acquisition devices are not interconnected, and each data acquisition device can be connected to one or more photovoltaic inverters. The data acquisition devices can also be servers.

[0089] In order to improve the stability of the photovoltaic power station control system, in one embodiment of the present application, the photovoltaic power station control system also includes: a backup voltage outer loop controller; the backup voltage outer loop controller is respectively connected to each photovoltaic inverter and the voltage outer loop controller; wherein, the backup voltage outer loop controller is used to receive the adjustment instruction and obtain the grid connection point working data when the voltage outer loop controller fails; determine the current instruction corresponding to each photovoltaic inverter according to the adjustment instruction and the grid connection point working data, and send it to the corresponding photovoltaic inverter.

[0090] In order to reduce power loss and thereby ensure the stable operation of the grid-connected photovoltaic power station, in one embodiment of the present application, the voltage outer loop controller is also used to monitor whether there is a maximum power point photovoltaic inverter in each photovoltaic inverter whose output active current is less than the direct-axis current instruction in the current instruction and the current difference between the output active current and the direct-axis current instruction is greater than a first current difference threshold. If so, the current difference is controlled to be distributed to the inverter that has not reached the maximum power point until all photovoltaic inverters reach the maximum power point inverter or the current difference between the actual value of the output active current of the grid-connected point and the preset grid-connected point output active current standard value is less than or equal to the second current difference threshold; the inverter that has not reached the maximum power point is each photovoltaic inverter among all photovoltaic inverters except the maximum power point photovoltaic inverter.

[0091] Specifically, a photovoltaic inverter whose output active current is less than the direct-axis current instruction and whose current difference between the output active current and the direct-axis current instruction is greater than a first current difference threshold can be determined as a maximum power point photovoltaic inverter; the first current difference threshold, the second current difference and the grid-connected point output active current standard value can all be set according to actual needs, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. For example, the first current difference threshold is 1% × current instruction I d0 The second current difference threshold is 1% × the preset grid-connected point output active current standard value. If (output active current - current command I d0 )>1%×current command I d0 , then determine the output active current and current command I d0 For a maximum power point photovoltaic inverter whose current difference is greater than the first current difference threshold, if (the actual value of the output active current of the grid-connected point - the preset standard value of the output active current of the grid-connected point) ≤ 1% × the preset standard value of the output active current of the grid-connected point, it is determined that the current difference between the actual value of the output active current of the grid-connected point and the preset standard value of the output active current of the grid-connected point is less than or equal to the second current difference threshold.

[0092] Specifically, this embodiment provides an active current optimization strategy that takes into account the inverter feedback value. Since the grid-connected photovoltaic power station should respond to grid frequency fluctuations and participate in grid frequency regulation and inertia, it generally does not operate in the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) mode. The voltage outer loop controller calculates the direct axis current command value of the photovoltaic power station. Based on the proportion of the inverter installed capacity, it is distributed to each inverter I d0 , if an inverter outputs active current Less than I d0 , and the deviation is greater than 1%, then the inverter is considered to have reached MPPT mode; if an inverter outputs active current with I d0 If the deviation between them is less than or equal to 1%, it is considered that the inverter has not reached the MPPT mode.

[0093] Specifically, the active current difference of the inverters that are already in MPPT mode is distributed to the inverters that have not reached MPPT mode in proportion to their installed capacity, until the deviation between the actual value of the output active current of the power station's grid-connected point and the preset standard value of the output active current of the grid-connected point is less than or equal to 1%, or all inverters are in MPPT mode.

[0094] In one embodiment of the present application, the multiple photovoltaic inverters are divided into multiple groups, each group includes at least two photovoltaic inverters, the photovoltaic inverters in the same group are connected via a busbar, and the photovoltaic inverters in different groups correspond to different busbars. Each photovoltaic inverter is used to connect to the grid point via the busbar.

[0095] In order to reduce power consumption and thereby ensure stable operation of a grid-type photovoltaic power station, in one embodiment of the present application, the voltage outer loop controller includes:

[0096] A determination unit is used to monitor whether there is an abnormal bus among each bus whose voltage exceeds a preset normal range of bus voltage. If so, the reactive current change value of the abnormal bus is determined based on the preset bus reactive voltage coefficient, the normal range of bus voltage and the bus voltage of the abnormal bus.

[0097] Specifically, a bus whose voltage exceeds the preset normal range of bus voltage can be determined as an abnormal bus; the preset normal range of bus voltage can be set according to actual conditions, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. For example, the normal operating range of the 35kV bus voltage is set to 35~37.5kV. If the bus voltage is lower than the lower limit of the normal operating range of 35kV, the reactive current change value = (35-V*)×K; if the bus voltage is higher than the upper limit of the normal operating range of 37.5kV, the reactive current change value = (37.5-V*)×K, where V* is the bus voltage and K is the reactive voltage coefficient of the 35kV bus.

[0098] The regulating unit is used to regulate the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to each bus according to the reactive current change value.

[0099] In order to further reduce power consumption and ensure stable operation of the grid-type photovoltaic power station, in one embodiment of the present application, the regulating unit includes:

[0100] The first current regulating subunit is used to determine whether the reactive current change value is greater than zero. If so, the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to the abnormal bus is increased by the absolute value of the reactive current change value, and the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to each normal bus is reduced by the absolute value of the reactive current change value. The normal bus is each bus among all the buses except the abnormal bus.

[0101] Specifically, the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to the abnormal bus can represent the sum of the output reactive currents of each photovoltaic inverter in the abnormal bus; the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to each normal bus can represent the sum of the output reactive currents of each photovoltaic inverter in the photovoltaic power station except the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to the abnormal bus.

[0102] Specifically, this embodiment provides a reactive current optimization strategy that takes into account the bus voltage within the station. Since the control point of the grid-connected photovoltaic power station in this solution is the grid connection point and the SVG configuration is omitted in the station, for 110kV and 220kV grid-connected photovoltaic power stations, multiple 35kV buses in the station may be too high or too low. In one example, assuming that the photovoltaic power station has three buses, namely busbars 1#, 2#, and 3#, and the normal operating range of the 35kV bus voltage is set to 35-37.5kV (which can be set according to the actual situation of the power station), then while keeping the total photovoltaic inverter output reactive current unchanged, it is first distributed in proportion to the reactive current margin of each inverter (or in proportion to the installed capacity of the inverter, reactive current equalization, etc.). If the 1# bus voltage V* is lower than the preset bus voltage normal range, the total inverter reactive current output by each inverter under busbar 1# increases by (35-V*)×K, and the increased total inverter reactive current can be equivalent to the actual total output reactive current corresponding to the above-mentioned abnormal bus; each inverter under busbars 2# and 3# is evenly distributed in proportion to the reactive current margin (or in proportion to the installed capacity of the inverter, reactive current equalization, etc.) -(35-V*)×K.

[0103] The second current regulating subunit is used to determine whether the reactive current change value is less than zero. If so, the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to the abnormal bus is adjusted to reduce the absolute value of the reactive current change value, and the total output reactive current of the photovoltaic inverter corresponding to each normal bus is adjusted to increase the absolute value of the reactive current change value.

[0104] In the above example, if the voltage V* of bus 1# is too high, the total inverter reactive current output by each inverter under bus 1# will be reduced by (V*-37.5)×K, and each inverter under bus 2# and 3# will be evenly divided by (V*-37.5)×K in proportion to the reactive current margin (or by proportion of inverter installed capacity, reactive current equalization, etc.).

The voltage outer loop controller can build a stable output voltage (which is expressed as a stable voltage amplitude e0 and angular velocity θ0) through the rotor operation equation and the simulated electromagnetic equation. ref0 is the power command issued by AGC, P e0 is the grid-connected power, w1 is the endogenous voltage angular velocity, w 00 = (50 + frequency dead zone) × 2 × π, V ref0 is the grid connection point voltage issued by the dispatcher, V0 is the actual grid connection point voltage, Q ref0 is the reactive power command issued by the power station control layer, Q0 is the actual reactive power of the grid connection point; the endogenous voltage Generate the total current control instruction of the entire power station through feedback regulation

[0108] The execution layer is based on the voltage outer loop control structure of the intermediate layer of the grid-type photovoltaic power station. The photovoltaic inverter has no voltage outer loop and is configured with a current inner loop. The current loop input of each photovoltaic inverter is the current command I d0 , I q0 , I d0 , I q0 It is the total current control instruction of the intermediate control layer Calculated based on equal distribution, allocation according to margin, equal proportion or more complex methods.
