Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power network control, and in particular to a multi-port integrated energy router device. Background Technology
[0002] Faced with ever-expanding energy demand and worsening environmental problems, a single energy source can no longer meet the needs of normal human life. The Energy Internet, as a new type of smart energy ecosystem, has emerged. Multi-port energy routers, as a crucial hub of the Energy Internet, utilize multiple ports to connect to different power grids, enabling centralized processing of power generation, distribution, and consumption information. Relying on an energy management system, energy routers select the optimal grid connection method for new energy sources. A scientific grid connection scheduling and management mechanism ensures maximum access for new energy sources, reducing curtailment rates for solar and wind power and improving energy utilization. For the power grid, they select the most reliable, economical, and efficient operating mode, coordinating with relay protection devices to promptly switch faulty areas and control the operation of energy storage and reactive power harmonic compensation devices. For loads, they select the most reasonable power supply path, configuring energy flow paths based on factors such as price and losses when demand side requests power. Ultimately, the energy router achieves organic unity and efficient interaction between the "source-grid-load" system.
[0003] Existing technologies disclose power routers with multiple power supply methods, employing AC / DC hybrid buses to form AC / DC hybrid microgrids and using switch arrays to create energy channels. Current research on power routers mainly focuses on AC networks and hybrid AC / DC networks, primarily concentrating on local area networks (LANs) and backbone networks, with less attention paid to energy interconnection in off-grid networks and multiple short-distance microgrid clusters. The shortcomings of existing technologies are twofold: firstly, the number of energy ports is relatively limited, consisting only of electrical power ports, unable to absorb other energy media; secondly, current research on power routers mainly focuses on AC networks and hybrid AC / DC networks, primarily concentrating on LANs and backbone networks, with less attention paid to energy interconnection in off-grid networks and multiple short-distance microgrid clusters.

It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the invention.
[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 This invention provides a multi-port integrated energy router device, comprising: an electrical central controller, a gas turbine central controller, a management and scheduling module, several DC / AC power modules, and several DC / DC power modules; the input sides of the several DC / AC power modules are connected to a DC bus, and their output sides are connected in parallel to the AC distribution network; the input sides of the several DC / DC power modules are respectively connected to different types of interfaces, and their output sides are respectively connected to the DC bus; the electrical central controller is connected to the DC / AC power modules, the DC / DC power modules, and the management and scheduling module; the gas turbine central controller is connected to the management and scheduling module and the gas turbine; the management and scheduling module controls the electrical central controller and the gas turbine central controller according to a preset strategy, and sends power scheduling commands to the DC / AC power modules and the DC / DC power modules according to grid energy information to achieve energy interaction.
[0027] On the AC grid-connected side, N DC / AC power modules are directly connected in parallel and then connected to the AC distribution network through an isolation transformer. The DC side of all DC / AC power modules is connected to the 750V DC bus. The input side of each DC / DC power module is connected to a different type of interface (energy storage battery, photovoltaic array output interface, and DC load), and the output side is directly connected to the 750V DC bus.

[0034] Furthermore, contactors are provided on the input and output sides of the DC / DC power module; the electrical central controller is connected to several contactors to control the switching on and off of the DC / DC power module.
[0035] Both the input and output sides of the DC / DC power module are equipped with contactors inside the power module.

This improves the interactive and coordinated control level of controllable resources within the region, achieving rational allocation and complete utilization of multiple energy sources. Multi-port energy routers allow real-time two-way data interaction between power generation units and users. Data fed back through the network allows power generation units to understand user consumption habits, thereby rationally adjusting power generation to improve resource utilization.
