Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of integrated energy system planning and operation, and specifically relates to a source-grid-load coordinated expansion planning method considering the optimization of combined hydropower, wind power and solar power DC transmission. Background Art

[0002] Renewable energy sources like wind and solar power have poor controllability, and their intermittent and uncertain output poses significant challenges to the safe and economical operation of power grids. Cascade hydropower stations, with their flexible regulation capabilities, can effectively mitigate the uncertainty of wind and solar power station output. By leveraging the complementary nature of cascade hydropower and wind and solar power stations, combined with the coordinated optimization of DC transmission, they can achieve peak load regulation and peak-load shifting.

[0003] The complementarity of hydropower, wind, and solar power resources manifests itself on various timescales, including medium- and long-term energy resource complementarity, short-term scheduling complementarity, and real-time control complementarity for rapid power fluctuations. Current research on hydropower, wind, and solar power systems primarily focuses on short-term optimal operation. Considerable research has been conducted both domestically and internationally on power system planning for renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. Many studies model expansion planning for the generation and transmission systems separately, reflecting the varying impacts of expansion on the overall power system. However, from a holistic perspective, optimizing the combined expansion of the generation and transmission systems can yield a more economically optimal solution. Existing research suffers from two key issues: 1) Limited research on medium- and long-term planning encompassing cascade hydropower stations, wind and solar power plants, and DC transmission; and 2) insufficiently leveraging the advantages of load-side demand response to foster complementary source-load resources.

[0004] Therefore, at this stage, it is necessary to design a source-grid-load coordinated expansion planning method that takes into account the optimization of combined hydropower, wind power and solar power DC transmission to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0139] Step 3: Establish a load-side demand response service model. The loads for which demand response devices have been invested and built can be subjected to a certain degree of load reduction or load transfer. The sum of demand response loads on a typical day must be greater than or equal to 0 and cannot exceed the upper limit allowed by the system.

[0183] (1) Introduction to the example.

[0184] The modified 24-bus IEEE reliability test system was used for verification, which includes 26 traditional thermal power units, 38 transmission lines and 17 power loads. Three wind farms are located at nodes 1, 2 and 22, two photovoltaic power stations are located at nodes 16 and 22, and three hydropower stations are located at nodes 1, 7 and 21. Two of the hydropower stations are cascade hydropower stations, and the water inflow is considered according to the normal water period. The DC transmission is located at node 22. In addition, 18 candidate investment generators, 16 candidate investment transmission lines, and 19 candidate investment demand response services are considered. The expansion period of the study is 5 years. In the first year, the power load of wind power generation and photovoltaic power generation are 2850MW, 720MW and 500MW respectively, with annual growth rates of 3%, 8% and 8% respectively. The minimum and maximum power of DC transmission are 100MW and 500MW respectively, and the daily transmission power is 6000MWh. The typical daily power load, wind and solar output curve is as follows Figure 2 The test tool uses Matlab 2018a programming software and GUROBI 8.1 commercial solver.

[0185] (2) Description of the implementation scenario.

[0186] To study the proposed source-grid-load coordinated expansion planning method for combined hydropower, wind-solar and DC transmission optimization, highlighting the complementary coordination advantages of combined hydropower, wind-solar and DC transmission, the impact of load-side demand response on renewable energy consumption, and the impact of output uncertainty of renewable energy such as wind and solar on planning results, the following examples 1-5 are set.

[0194] (3) Analysis of the results of the embodiment.

[0195] Table 1 presents the planning results for Examples 1-5, where G, L, and D represent generators, transmission lines, and demand response services, respectively. In Example 1, seven thermal power units with a total capacity of 669 MW were scheduled to retire after the expansion planning period. To meet the increased load, five relatively inexpensive candidate generators were commissioned. To prevent line congestion, the transmission network was reinforced, and five transmission lines were constructed. Notably, due to the lack of consideration for source-grid coordination, four new transmission lines were constructed in the fifth year to meet load requirements. In Example 2, due to consideration for source-grid coordination, candidate unit 6 was constructed in the first year, and candidate unit 4 was replaced by candidate unit 11. This avoided the need for extensive transmission line construction in the fifth year. Therefore, in Example 2, only candidate line 12 was required for construction in the fifth year, reducing the total cost of Example 2. In Example 3, the planning of load-side demand response services is further considered, that is, the source-grid-load coordination optimization is considered in the planning model, which further reduces the total planning cost of Example 3 compared with Example 2. Taking the source-grid-load coordination planning results of Example 3 as an example, the characteristics of hydropower, wind, and solar power stations and DC transmission are further analyzed. Figure 2 It can be seen that due to the limitation that the DC transmission power can only be adjusted up and down once a day, the DC transmission power basically reaches the maximum value when the wind power is large and the load is small at night, and the DC transmission power is the minimum value when the wind power is low and the load is large during the day. Since the water inflow of the hydropower station is relatively sufficient, it basically maintains a relatively stable output. When the photovoltaic power station output is at its maximum, the output is appropriately reduced to reduce the system's abandoned light. In order to further explore the peak regulation of the hydropower station and the coordinated and complementary characteristics of water, wind and solar power, the water inflow of the hydropower station is reduced to study the relevant characteristics of the water, wind and solar power stations and DC transmission during the dry season, such as Figure 3 As shown in Figure 1, wind and solar power plants have a certain degree of complementarity on a daily timescale, while cascade hydropower stations offer good peak-shaving performance, adjusting according to the size and fluctuation of wind and solar power output, more economically meeting the requirements of DC transmission and source-load balance. Comparing the analysis of Examples 1-3, it can be seen that medium- and long-term coordinated planning of power system sources, grids, and loads can maximize resource utilization and reduce unnecessary investment.

[0196] When considering the uncertainty of wind and solar power station output, chance constraints are used to ensure the system's ability to absorb wind and solar power. In Example 4, the renewable energy absorption ratio α is set to 80%, the number of renewable energy scenarios is set to 5,000, and the significance level ε is set to 0.1. Due to the need to ensure the safety of power system operation and the absorption of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, the total planning cost increases by 7.5% compared to Example 2. In this case, a new candidate generator unit 3 is added to ensure system operational safety. Furthermore, candidate units 1 and 11 are also commissioned one year in advance. The uncertainty of wind and solar power output has no significant impact on transmission line planning. In Example 5, due to the consideration of the impact of load-side demand response services, the investment in candidate generator units is reduced compared to Example 4. The construction years of some candidate units are slightly different, which reduces the total planning cost.

[0197] Table 2 shows the planning results under different wind and solar power output forecast errors. From this, we can conclude that as the wind and solar power output forecast error continues to increase, more and more generators, transmission lines and demand response services are invested and built, and the total planning cost is also increasing.

[0199]

[0200] Figure 4 A sensitivity analysis is presented for different wind and solar power output absorption ratios α and significance levels ε to further investigate the impact of opportunity constraint parameters on the power system source-grid-load coordination planning results. It is found that as the absorption ratio α increases or the significance level ε decreases, the total system planning cost shows a monotonically increasing trend. It can be seen that the significance level ε has a more significant impact on the total planning cost. To achieve better economic efficiency, the system should maximize the utilization of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, which means a higher absorption ratio α, which has a smaller impact on the total planning cost. This sensitivity study can guide power system planners in determining appropriate power system planning decisions under different wind and solar power output absorption ratios to ensure system operation security and the absorption of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power.
