Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power, and more specifically to a method for optimizing the allocation of integrated energy resources in a microgrid area. Background Technology

[0002] China has a vast territory, with numerous service areas, stations, and villages located in remote regions such as plateaus, deserts, grasslands, and isolated islands. Due to constraints imposed by the natural environment, construction costs, and return on investment, effectively utilizing local natural resources such as wind and solar power, and constructing microgrid systems tailored to local conditions, is an effective way to ensure regional energy self-sufficiency and efficient utilization, achieving local prosperity and sustainable ecological improvement. However, the rationality of the configuration of energy sources and energy storage devices within a microgrid system directly affects the system's reliability, economic efficiency, and future sustainable development.

[0003] In recent years, scholars both domestically and internationally have conducted extensive research on the capacity optimization and configuration of microgrid systems. Some studies focus on single-objective optimization, such as minimizing system cost; others employ multi-objective optimization, solving for each sub-objective function separately, assigning weights to each sub-objective, and finally transforming the multi-objective optimization into a single-objective optimization using a linear weighted method. For the former, single-objective optimization considers relatively few factors and cannot adequately address the actual needs of different regions; while for the latter, the determination of weights inevitably involves subjectivity due to human intervention, affecting the accuracy of the optimization results.

[0004] When configuring energy source capacity for microgrids, multiple objectives must be comprehensively met. These include consideration of various constraints such as construction investment costs, operation and maintenance costs, energy balance, and site limitations. If capacity estimation is performed on a single-objective basis for each of these objectives, it becomes difficult to simultaneously ensure the matching of energy sources and loads within the microgrid and the long-term operation of the system. To maximize the reliability, sustainability, and scalability of local microgrid systems, practical and effective energy optimization methods should be adopted to develop new microgrid industries, models, and business formats with universal value.

[0005] In designing optimal energy configuration for microgrids, this invention considers the following factors:

[0006] (1) Energy source capacity configuration should adopt scientific and effective methods: If we blindly pursue energy security within the microgrid and build an excessively large scale of energy sources, it will not only increase investment costs, but also lead to problems such as resource waste or unstable energy use by users. Therefore, the energy source capacity configuration method should adopt scientific and effective deduction methods to minimize resource waste and negative impact on user energy use.

[0007] (2) Energy source capacity configuration fully considers natural resource endowment to achieve energy self-sufficiency: The energy source optimization configuration comprehensively evaluates the natural resource endowment and load energy consumption of the microgrid construction site. Based on the concept of green energy comprehensive self-sufficiency, it efficiently utilizes renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, and maximizes the self-sufficiency of microgrid regional load energy consumption through asset energy conversion.

[0008] (3) Energy source capacity configuration needs to match microgrid energy consumption and investment capacity: While connecting to large-scale renewable energy and energy storage systems can increase the reliability of microgrid operation, it will inevitably involve high investment costs and subsequent operation and maintenance costs. For regional energy-consuming units, building related facilities independently will result in excessively high investment and operation and maintenance costs, which will easily increase the burden on energy-consuming units. Moreover, unreasonable facility capacity configuration will not only cause resource waste but also investment losses.

[0009] Based on the above considerations, this invention proposes a multi-objective cyclic optimization method adapted to microgrid energy source quantification, which can be used for comprehensive energy optimization in microgrid areas and has strong regional applicability. Summary of the Invention

[0010] This invention, based on the natural resources and load characteristics of existing microgrid construction areas, and while ensuring regional energy reliability, rationally designs the types and capacities of newly constructed equipment through a multi-layered cyclical optimization configuration method. This results in a configuration method guided by energy self-sufficiency, employing a reasonable game theory approach to energy construction scale, and adhering to the principle of full resource utilization. The goal is to achieve the highest system efficiency, lowest operation and maintenance costs, highest self-sufficiency rate, and minimum total life-cycle investment. This method alleviates regional power supply problems, reduces both the initial investment costs and subsequent operation and maintenance costs for energy-consuming units, and improves the efficiency of system resource allocation.

[0011] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0012] A microgrid regional integrated energy optimization allocation method includes a multi-layer optimization model, each with a different optimization objective. Each optimization model includes an optimization objective, decision variables, and constraints. The solutions of each optimization model are passed sequentially between the multi-layer optimization models in a progressive manner. If the solution output by the last optimization model is not the optimal solution of that optimization model, the solution output by the last optimization model is fed back to the first optimization model, and the first optimization model is solved again. The solution is solved layer by layer in the above manner in a progressive loop until the last optimization model outputs the optimal solution or the set number of iterations has been reached. Then, the solution of the last optimization model is output and the loop ends.

[0013] The multi-level optimization model includes at least an economic optimization model, a self-consistent optimization model, and an output fluctuation optimization model. The solutions output by the economic optimization model, the self-consistent optimization model, and the output fluctuation optimization model are passed on in sequence. The economic optimization model aims to optimize the economic efficiency of the microgrid system, the self-consistent optimization model aims to maximize the self-consistency rate of the microgrid system, and the output fluctuation optimization model aims to minimize the daily output fluctuation rate of the microgrid system.

[0014] Furthermore, the objective function of the economic optimization model is to minimize the overall investment and operation and maintenance cost of the microgrid system, the decision variables of the economic optimization model are the configurable capacity of energy and energy storage within the microgrid system, and the constraints of the economic optimization model are investment cost constraints and construction land constraints.

[0015] The objective function of the self-consistent optimization model is to maximize the self-consistency rate of the microgrid system. The decision variable of the self-consistent optimization model is the actual output capacity of the clean energy source within the microgrid system. The constraints of the self-consistent optimization model are the output constraints and installed capacity constraints of the economic optimization model.

[0016] The objective function of the power output fluctuation optimization model is to minimize the daily power output fluctuation rate within 8760 hours of microgrid system production simulation. The decision variables of the power output fluctuation optimization model are the energy source and energy storage generation capacity within the microgrid system. The constraints of the power output fluctuation optimization model are the output constraints of the self-consistent optimization model, as well as the power output balance constraints of the microgrid, the charging and discharging power of the energy storage system, and its own capacity constraints.

[0051] P load The annual average load power is expressed in kW.

[0052] The decision variables of the self-consistent optimization model are as follows:

[0053]

[0054] In the above formula, η w η pv η o These are the output efficiencies of wind power, photovoltaic power, and other power energy sources, respectively, less than 1, and dimensionless;

[0055] The optimization objective of the power output fluctuation optimization model is as follows:

[0059] P avg (d) represents the average daily power output at hour t on day d, without considering energy storage regulation, in kW;

[0060] The decision variables of the power output fluctuation optimization model are as follows:

[0063] Under the output balance constraint, the power demand for energy storage charging and discharging in the power output fluctuation optimization model is as follows:

[0064]

[0065] In the above formula, ΔP(d,t) represents the charging and discharging power required by energy storage to meet the supply and demand imbalance between the source and the load in the production process simulation, with the unit being kW; where "+" represents charging and "-" represents discharging.

[0074] Furthermore, the upper limit of the installed capacity of wind power, photovoltaic, energy storage, and other power energy sources in Formula 2 shall be determined with reference to the following formula:

[0079] C omax S omax These represent the upper limits of installed capacity for other power energy sources, respectively, based on investment and land constraints, in kW.

[0080] Furthermore, when passing optimization results between adjacent optimization models, if the optimization model at the upper level has a solution, the output result is passed to the optimization model at the lower level. The optimization model at the lower level calculates the optimization objective function of its own level based on the optimization result of the optimization model at the upper level. If the optimization model at the upper level has no solution, the optimization objective function of its own level needs to be recalculated until the corresponding solution of the optimization model at its own level is calculated.

[0081] Furthermore, when the solution output by the last layer optimization model is passed to the first layer optimization model, if the first layer optimization model cannot calculate its own solution based on the result passed by the last layer optimization model, then the last layer optimization model needs to recalculate a new solution and then pass the new solution to the first layer optimization model.

[0082] The comprehensive energy optimization allocation method proposed in this invention adopts a multi-layered optimization objective cyclical transmission architecture. Through multiple cyclical transmissions and iterative solutions, a globally optimal solution that takes into account multiple optimization objectives is obtained, thereby selecting the optimal source and storage capacity that meet the optimization objectives. This method satisfies the energy demand problem of loads within microgrids and ensures the reliability and economy of system construction, operation and maintenance, and energy use. This allocation method can be modified to meet different optimization objectives according to specific project requirements. This allocation method is also applicable to other optimization scenarios such as objective classification and process control, and has strong universality and technical promotion value.

[0083] The integrated energy optimization allocation method proposed in this invention, based on the optimization objective of minimizing construction and operation and maintenance costs, allocates the optimal construction capacity of wind, solar, storage, and other energy sources. This allocation method effectively considers the user's own interests, determines the source based on the load, avoids blind construction, rationally plans investment and operation and maintenance expenditure costs, and the optimization objective can be adjusted according to specific realities, making it highly adaptable to actual engineering projects. This gives the proposed allocation method strong economic promotion value.

[0084] The integrated energy optimization configuration method proposed in this invention is not only suitable for independent microgrid systems in medium and low density areas, but also applicable to engineering designs such as integrated energy systems and virtual power plants in developed regions with flexible power supply policies. The reasonable energy source configuration method can maximize cost reduction and improve energy utilization while ensuring reliable load energy use. The optimization objectives in this configuration method can be adjusted according to the microgrid assembly area, and have strong application value in various scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0088] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0089] This embodiment discloses a microgrid regional integrated energy optimization allocation method. It uses the key architecture of the microgrid system and key elements within the system to guide the selection of decision variables in the optimization allocation, thereby determining constraints and defining optimization objectives. The optimization allocation method of this invention employs a multi-layer optimization model, constructing the basic components, architecture, and iterative operation mode of the multi-layer optimization iterative model. In the design of each layer of the optimization model, the purpose, optimization objective, decision variables, and constraints of each layer are given.

[0090] The microgrid system mentioned in this embodiment includes "source", "storage", and "load". Taking the power source as an example, the energy source includes wind power, photovoltaic, small hydropower, fuel cells, etc. Taking the energy storage device as an example, the energy storage device includes lithium phosphate, lead-carbon, flow hydride and other electrochemical energy storage batteries. The "load" is the carrier of energy consumption in the microgrid area, which is divided according to the scenario. The main scenarios include remote area stations, western service areas, villages, scientific research institutes, border outposts, isolated islands, etc.

[0091] The optimal configuration method is the core of energy source saturation in a microgrid system. This invention designs a multi-layer optimal configuration method where each layer's optimization model includes an optimization objective, decision variables, and constraints. The solutions of each layer's optimization models are passed sequentially in a progressive manner: the optimal solution determined by the first layer is passed down; the second layer determines its optimal solution based on the output of the first layer and continues to pass it down to the next layer, and so on until the last layer is reached; the last layer determines its optimal solution and feeds the result back to the first layer; the first layer combines the feedback from the last layer to re-optimize its optimal solution, and this process is repeated iteratively to obtain the optimal solution and corresponding optimal value for each layer until the iteration ends. The last layer outputs its optimal solution or has reached the set number of iterations, at which point it outputs its solution and the loop ends.

Figure 2The following explanation uses a three-layer optimization model structure as an example. When determining the optimization objectives for each layer, the main considerations for constructing new energy sources in microgrid areas are taken into account. For remote areas, energy security is the primary prerequisite, and energy-related economic indicators are mainly considered. Based on this, the optimization configuration objectives of this invention include minimizing the investment and maintenance costs of the microgrid system, achieving power balance, and minimizing daily power fluctuation. Considering the continuous increase in new energy penetration, the optimization configuration objectives also include maximizing energy self-consistency. That is, the three-layer optimization models given in this embodiment are the economic optimization model, the self-consistent optimization model, and the power fluctuation optimization model. The solutions output by each of these models are passed sequentially. The economic optimization model aims for optimal economic efficiency of the microgrid system; the self-consistent optimization model aims for the highest self-consistency rate of the microgrid system; and the power fluctuation optimization model aims for the lowest daily power fluctuation of the microgrid system.

[0093] Considering that the optimization configuration objective of this embodiment is a multi-layered architecture, and that there are entangled relationships between the objectives, the interests of multiple objectives need to be considered simultaneously. Therefore, the optimization configuration method presented in this embodiment, while complying with the decision-making of each layer, also retains the relative autonomy of each layer. Figure 2 Taking the three-layer optimization model shown below as an example, the design of each layer of the optimization model will be explained one by one below.

[0094] The economic optimization model is used as the first-level optimization model.

[0161] When optimizing the allocation of integrated energy in a microgrid area according to the three-layer optimization model given above, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when passing optimization results between adjacent optimization models, if the upper-level optimization model has a solution, the output result is passed to the lower-level optimization model, which then calculates its own objective function based on the upper-level model's result. If the upper-level optimization model has no solution, it means that the optimization result is not suitable for the lower-level objective function, and the objective function needs to be recalculated until a solution is found. When the solution output by the last-level optimization model is passed to the first-level optimization model, if the first-level optimization model cannot calculate its own solution based on the result passed from the last-level model, it needs to recalculate a new solution and then pass it to the first-level model, continuing until the decision variables can be deduced and the solution is passed down to the next level, until the set number of iterations is reached.
