How to ensure a sustainable urban energy supply while reducing environmental pollution generated during energy consumption is a hot topic in urban development today.
[0003] The energy station adopts a combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) operation mode, using natural gas as the primary energy supply and water as the medium for energy transmission. Most of the energy generated from gas combustion is used for power generation, and some waste heat is recovered and utilized through waste heat recovery equipment, including waste heat boilers or direct-fired waste heat turbines, to provide heating and cooling to users. This multi-use approach significantly improves the primary energy utilization rate of the entire energy system, achieving tiered energy utilization and allowing for adjustments to the cooling, heating, and power supply ratios according to different user needs. Data acquisition devices are needed to collect data from electricity, water, and gas meters to determine the generation and consumption of different energy sources at the energy station. However, the complex structure of multi-energy flow systems and the inconvenience of information collection and aggregation make it difficult for staff to fully and promptly grasp the energy data of each energy station, reducing the efficiency of intelligent control.

[0042] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.
[0043] The following detailed description is exemplary and intended to provide further detailed explanation of the invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. The terminology used in this invention is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of exemplary embodiments according to the invention.
[0044] Example 1
[0045] An energy station control system, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a hierarchical control module, a communication module, and a voltage regulator module;
[0046] The hierarchical control module is used to acquire environmental data and user commands from each energy station, and generate intelligent control schemes based on the environmental data and user commands.
[0047] The communication module is used to acquire data and intelligent control schemes from each energy station, optimize the intelligent control schemes based on the data from each energy station, and distribute the optimized intelligent control schemes to each energy station.
[0048] The voltage regulator module is used to obtain voltage stability indicators and intelligent control schemes, and to control the voltage of each bidirectional converter according to the voltage stability indicators and intelligent control schemes.
[0049] Specifically, the architecture of the communication module, such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a multi-energy flow coordination controller and several energy stations. Each energy station includes an in-station controller and source, load, and storage related equipment. The in-station controller and source, load, and storage related equipment use a standard communication protocol. The energy station and the multi-energy flow coordination controller use REST communication. The source, load, and storage related equipment acquire data from the energy stations. The energy station data is uploaded to the multi-energy flow coordination controller through the in-station controller. The multi-energy flow coordination controller optimizes the intelligent control scheme issued by the hierarchical control module based on the data from each energy station. Then, the multi-energy flow coordination controller distributes the optimized intelligent control scheme to each energy station.
[0050] Specifically, the multi-energy flow coordinator sends optimized intelligent control schemes to source, load, and storage related equipment within the station through control commands of standard protocols, achieving second-level control; standard communication protocols such as MODBUS are used within the energy station, and REST-style communication is used between energy stations.
[0051] The implementation of REST mainly consists of two parts: energy station data is uploaded to the multi-energy flow coordination controller; the multi-energy flow coordination controller then distributes the optimization results to each energy station. The first part involves classifying the equipment within the energy station according to the functional characteristics of its cooling, heating, and electrical equipment, and defining important information (including voltage, current, power, etc.) for each class. This data is transmitted over a network, enabling energy stations to proactively upload their data in real time. The second part defines control commands for each energy station based on its characteristics and considering different operating scenarios of the integrated energy system. The multi-energy flow coordination controller then distributes the results of the composite coordination optimization strategy to each energy station in real time, achieving minute-level control between energy nodes. This achieves energy flow balance among multiple energy stations within the region, improving the overall energy utilization efficiency of the energy network.
[0052] To address the coupling relationships between multiple energy systems, a comprehensive energy system composite coordination optimization method is designed using various advanced optimization theories, multi-energy flow balance mechanisms, and artificial intelligence algorithms. The controller within the energy station integrates the local composite coordination optimization strategy to optimize the energy within the station and sends the optimization results to the source, load, and storage related equipment within the station through control commands based on standard protocols, achieving second-level control.
[0053] The structure of the hierarchical control module, such as Figure 3 As shown, it includes an organization level, a coordination level, and an execution level. The execution level is used to control the controlled object. The organization level includes a knowledge base organizer. The organization level is used to acquire energy station environmental data and user instructions, optimize user instructions based on energy station environmental data, and generate intelligent control schemes.
[0054] The coordination level includes a classifier and several coordinators. The classifier is used to assign different types of energy station control commands to different coordinators. Each coordinator is used to coordinate the controller in the execution level and the knowledge base organizer in the organization level.
[0055] The execution level includes several controllers, which are used to control objects to execute intelligent control schemes.
[0056] The controller is typically a bidirectional converter installed in each energy station;
[0057] The controlled object includes several objects.
[0058] Cascading relationships in hierarchical control modules, such as Figure 4 As shown, C represents the input command, and U represents the output signal of the classifier. This hierarchical control system transforms qualitative user commands into an operation sequence. Upon receiving a user command, it determines the specific operation based on the input information from a set of sensors that interact with the environment. The sensors can provide monitoring information on the working space environment (external) and the status of each subsystem (internal). By fusing this information, an intelligent control scheme is obtained.
[0059] Specifically, for the mutual coupling of multiple energy flows, the hierarchical control module can be used to convert the cooling, heating, and gas loads into electrical loads on a small time scale, giving full play to the characteristics of electrical energy such as flexible utilization, high energy quality, and rapid response, and converting it into an equivalent AC / DC hybrid microgrid to better achieve coordinated control of multiple energy flows.
[0060] Since the execution stage in the split-range control module uses multiple parallel bidirectional converters, the voltage stability is achieved by controlling the bidirectional converters through a voltage regulator module.
[0061] A typical topology of an AC / DC bidirectional converter is as follows: Figure 5 As shown.
[0062] To model the bidirectional converter using a detailed model, each power electronic switching device (IGBT) needs to be modeled separately, and then the entire device model is completed based on the actual topology of the converter devices.
[0063] Define binary logic switching functions to describe the on and off states of the upper and lower IGBTs.
[0064]
[0065] u j =u jo +u jN
[0066] u jo =s j u dc
[0067] Where: u jN This represents the voltage between the neutral point and ground. Based on the circuit topology and Kirchhoff's voltage law, the equation for the AC side can be obtained as follows:
[0068]
[0069] Where: R represents the equivalent inductance of the filter inductor, e j This represents the voltage of an ideal voltage source. Considering a symmetrical three-phase system, the three-phase voltage and current are reduced to zero, i.e.:
[0070]
[0071] The three-phase voltages can be obtained:
[0072]
[0073] Therefore, in rectification mode, the differential equation in three-phase natural coordinates is:
[0074]
[0075] In inverter mode, the equation is:
[0076]
[0077] Specifically, the control structure in the voltage regulator module, such as Figure 6 As shown, it includes an upper-layer decision-making agent, a middle-layer coordination agent, and a lower-layer distributed agent. The upper-layer decision-making agent is used to acquire voltage fluctuations and generate voltage stability evaluation indicators based on the voltage fluctuations. When the voltage stability evaluation indicator is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the upper-layer decision-making agent sends a coordination control command to the middle-layer coordination agent.
[0078] Specifically, the first threshold is the safe voltage change rate in the hierarchical control module;
[0079] Specifically, the safe voltage change rate is adjusted according to the actual situation, and under normal circumstances, the safe voltage change rate is less than 7%.
[0080] Voltage stability assessment indicators can be voltage change rate or similar response voltage fluctuation values, or they can be obtained by weighted calculation of multiple response voltage fluctuation values;
[0081] The middle-level coordinating agent generates a voltage correction value based on the voltage stability evaluation index and sends the voltage correction value to the lower-level distributed agents;
[0082] The lower-level distributed intelligent agents use graded bidirectional droop control to regulate the voltage of each bidirectional converter based on the voltage correction value, thereby stabilizing the bus voltage.
[0083] Specifically, tiered bidirectional droop control, such as Figure 7 As shown in the figure: K u and K f These are the droop coefficients on the DC and AC sides, respectively, ΔP u and ΔP f It is the active power reference value obtained from DC droop control and AC droop control, P ref This is the active power reference value. The droop control obtains P... ref Subsequently, the bidirectional converter transmits power through dual-loop control of power and current. Reactive power can be provided as needed, typically set to Q. ref =0. The control strategy is shown in the following formula.
[0084]
[0085] When the AC side power is insufficient to meet the load and the DC side power has a surplus, the frequency of the AC bus voltage will decrease. The bidirectional converter will switch its operating mode to inverter mode to meet the power requirements of the inverter's AC side. Conversely, when the DC side load is excessive, the DC bus voltage will drop, and the bidirectional converter will switch its operating mode to inverter mode to meet the power requirements of the inverter's DC side.
[0086] By employing a consensus control protocol based on the voltages of local and neighboring smart agents, adaptive bidirectional hierarchical droop control coefficients can be obtained. After hierarchical bidirectional droop control, power distribution and system voltage stability can be achieved in a multi-parallel bidirectional converter system. Ultimately, intelligent control of the energy station can be realized, improving efficiency.
