Compared to the energy storage capacity configuration of a simple AC microgrid, the energy storage capacity configuration of an AC / DC microgrid is more complex. Current technologies for energy storage capacity configuration in AC / DC microgrids suffer from several shortcomings: insufficient integrated strategies, inadequate decoupling configurations, poor control determinism, and low economic efficiency. Summary of the Invention

It scientifically utilizes a comprehensive energy storage configuration strategy to achieve better decoupled configuration of AC / DC side energy storage capacity, effectively improves the determinism of energy storage capacity configuration, and greatly improves the reliability of control effect.

[0004] A method for decoupling the energy storage capacity configuration of a grid-connected AC / DC microgrid is designed, comprising the following steps: Step 1, control of the AC side energy storage charging and discharging process; Step 2, determination of the AC side energy storage capacity; Step 3, control of the DC side energy storage charging and discharging process; Step 4, determination of the DC side energy storage capacity.

[0005] Step one, control of the AC-side energy storage charging and discharging process, based on the AC / DC microgrid with tie-line power control, controls the charging and discharging process of the AC-side energy storage. The method for step one is as follows:

[0006] (1) Based on the requirements of grid-connected microgrids and their tie-line power control, energy storage is used as a current source and PQ control mode is adopted to carry out charging and discharging control in accordance with the power control requirements of the tie-line between the microgrid and the main grid.

[0007] (2) Energy storage control is based on the principle of extending the service life of energy storage. Integral control is adopted. Microgrid control adopts the control mode of fixed switching power of tie line, that is, only when the microgrid output power is equal to the target value, the control ends and the error is 0. During the control process, if other conditions remain unchanged, it takes 4T-5T to reach the control target, where T is the inertial time constant of the control link.

[0008] Step two, determining the AC-side energy storage capacity: Based on power exchange error probability statistics, the AC-side energy storage capacity is determined. The method for step two is as follows:

[0009] (1) For the error between the direct exchange power and the target exchange power under no energy storage regulation, if the daily regional prediction error follows a normal distribution, then the energy storage power controlled for it also follows a normal distribution. Based on statistical data, the energy storage capacity can be determined at a confidence level of 0.99; the operating power of the energy storage corresponding to the regional prediction error. It also conforms to a normal distribution. ,in Indicates expectation as The sum and variance are The energy storage power P follows a normal distribution; therefore, based on statistical analysis, at a confidence level of 0.99, the energy storage power P is determined to be... E Configuration meets requirements:

[0011] (2) Microgrid AC-side energy storage capacity configuration, for each control cycle governing equations It can be written as:

[0012] (2)

[0013] assumed During the control cycle If the internal parameters remain essentially unchanged, then the change in stored energy during the control period is as follows:

[0014] Let i represent the i-th control process; the energy change of the stored energy with a total of 1440 min / t of control operations per day is as follows:

[0017] Step three, control of the DC-side energy storage charging and discharging process, based on DC bus control, controls the charging and discharging process of the DC-side energy storage in the AC / DC microgrid. The method for step three is as follows:

[0018] (1) For DC-side microgrid energy storage, a control method is adopted to stabilize the DC bus voltage using energy storage. P / V droop control is used on the DC side, and the relationship diagram can be represented as follows:

[0019] (4)

[0020] (2) The control of energy storage is based on the principle of extending the service life of energy storage, and integral control is adopted. The DC side of the microgrid adopts a stable DC bus voltage control mode. In this control process, if other conditions remain unchanged, it takes 4T-5T to reach the control target, where T is the inertial time constant of the control link. The power control of energy storage can be expressed as: .

[0021] Step four, determining the DC-side energy storage capacity: Based on voltage regulation error probability statistics, the DC-side energy storage capacity is determined, thereby achieving decoupling of the AC / DC energy storage capacity configurations on different sides of the AC / DC microgrid. The method for step four is as follows:

[0022] (1) For the voltage error between the target voltage value and the voltage value without energy storage regulation, the daily voltage error follows a normal distribution. Based on statistical data, the energy storage capacity can be determined at a confidence level of 0.99; the operating power of the energy storage corresponding to the regional prediction error can also be determined. It also conforms to a normal distribution. ,in Indicates expectation as The variance is Following a normal distribution, based on statistical analysis, it is determined that the energy storage power configuration meets the requirements at a 0.99 confidence level: .

[0023] (2) The energy storage capacity is determined by The probability distribution of energy storage capacity obtained by integrating over a day is as follows: ,in, for The expected value calculated by integrating over a day; For the formula The variance is calculated after considering the time integration; similarly, using a confidence level of 0.99, the energy storage capacity configuration equation is: ,in Confidence level; Configure capacity for DC-side energy storage.

[0035] Specifically, the AC-side energy storage charging and discharging control method based on tie-line power control in step one is as follows:

[0036] a. Based on the requirements of the tie-line power control of the grid-connected microgrid, energy storage is used as a current source, and the PQ control mode is adopted to carry out charging and discharging control according to the tie-line power control requirements between the microgrid and the main grid.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the schematic diagram of the AC / DC microgrid energy storage configuration is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, distributed power sources and energy storage devices are connected to both the AC and DC buses, and the AC and DC buses are connected by interconnection conversion devices, providing a bidirectional power channel. This topology can effectively reduce power conversion stages, but its operation and control strategy is relatively complex. In addition to stabilizing the AC bus voltage frequency and DC bus voltage, power control between the AC and DC microgrids must also be considered.

[0038] against Figure 1 In grid-connected operation, the AC / DC microgrid operates in power-sharing mode, with the external grid providing the voltage and frequency reference for the AC system. Distributed power sources (such as photovoltaics) in the AC main microgrid operate in MPPT mode, and energy storage in the AC microgrid acts as a current source, employing PQ control and charging / discharging control according to the power control requirements of the tie-line between the microgrid and the main grid. At this time, the controllable resource of the AC microgrid is the AC bus energy storage device. The control target value for the tie-line exchange power is defined as P, and the actual value of the tie-line exchange power is... The energy storage output power is Due to the fluctuating characteristics of distributed energy resources and loads, the actual value of tie-line switching power will inevitably fluctuate over time. By controlling energy storage, the actual value of tie-line switching power can be changed to meet the control objectives.

[0039] b. Considering the principle of extending the service life of energy storage, integral control is adopted for energy storage control, and its control equation is as follows:

Based on statistical data, the energy storage power can be determined at a confidence level of 0.99. The operating power of the energy storage corresponding to the regional prediction error is then calculated. It also conforms to a normal distribution.

[0053] i represents the i-th control process. The energy change of the stored energy with a total of 1440 min / t control operations per day is as follows:

[0054] ;

[0055] The above formula can be simplified to:

[0056] (3)

[0057] As can be seen from equation (3), the energy storage capacity is determined by... The probability distribution of energy storage capacity obtained by integrating over a day is as follows:

[0066]

[0067] Therefore, the energy storage capacity configuration is 0.876kW.

[0068] Assume that the probability distribution of energy storage capacity is obtained statistically:

[0069]

[0070] The mathematical expectation unit is kWh. Based on a simplified method, the confidence interval is determined at a confidence level of 0.99 using the following formula:

[0071]

[0072] Therefore, the energy storage capacity configuration is 2.3 kWh.

[0073] Specifically, step three is a DC-side energy storage charging and discharging control method for AC / DC microgrids based on DC bus control:

[0074] a. For DC-side microgrid energy storage, a control method is adopted to stabilize the DC bus voltage using energy storage. P / V droop control is used on the DC side. Figure 3 The relationship between voltage change and active power change is shown in the graph:
