[0003] In addition to the "hard technologies" of technological innovation or investment such as CCUS technology, "soft technologies" such as mixed coal blending and coal-biomass fuel co-firing have become more acceptable options for reducing carbon emissions from power plants. At present, there are a large number of experience-oriented coal blending methods for coal-fired power plants, that is, many power plants rely on the experience of employees to mix different types of coal, and a few use intelligent algorithms to complete automatic coal blending. However, in the coal blending process, the cost of coal is focused on while the carbon emissions in the combustion process and its corresponding carbon trading costs are ignored, resulting in high carbon trading costs and uneconomical. In addition, the required power generation plays an important guiding role in the coal blending process, but due to natural factors such as weather, temperature, and wind, new energy power generation has uncertainty, and the power demand of thermal power generation is uncertain in practice.

[0087] S3, i.e. step 3: constructing a DRO coal blending optimization method considering coal and carbon trading costs, specifically including the following parts:

[0088] (1) The present invention establishes a deterministic coal blending model that takes into account coal combustion and carbon trading costs.

[0089] Decision variables: There are two decision variables involved in the coal blending model, namely x id and id Among them, y id is the decision variable for coal type selection, y id =1 means that the i-th coal is selected on the d-th day, otherwise y id =0. x id is the decision variable for coal quantity selection, that is, the quantity of the i-th type of coal selected on the d day.

[0090] Objective function: The objective function of the coal blending model is to minimize the total cost, which includes two parts: coal burning cost and carbon trading cost. (i) Cp id is the cost of the i-th type of coal on the d-th day, is the coal cost on day d. (ii) A de is the carbon quota for the dth day, calculated according to the Implementation Plan for the Total Setting and Allocation of National Carbon Emission Trading Quotas in 2021 and 2022 (Power Generation Industry), that is, A de =Q de ×B e ×F1×F r ×F f . Where Q de is the power supply of the unit on day d, B e is the power supply reference value of the unit category, F1 is the unit cooling method correction factor, F r is the unit heat supply correction factor, F f It is the unit load (output) factor correction factor. d is the carbon emission on day d, Car i is the carbon content per unit calorific value of the i-th type of coal, in tons of carbon per gigajoules (tC / GJ), OF i is the carbon oxidation rate of the ith coal, expressed in %.

[0091] It is expressed by the following formula:

[0092]

[0093] Constraints:

[0094] According to the actual power generation demand d , build burning x id The calorific value of coal meets the constraints of the calorific value corresponding to the power generation demand, and the constraints are: Among them, γ is the conversion coefficient between power generation and calorific value, η is the power generation efficiency of the unit, and q id is the calorific value of the i-th type of coal on the d-th day.

[0095] The boiler has certain requirements on the characteristics of coal, mainly including the restrictions on the calorific value, volatile matter and sulfur content of the mixed coal. The constraints are as follows: Among them, MU s ,ML s Respectively represent the upper and lower limits of coal type characteristics s, M ids is the value of the characteristic s of the i-th type of coal on the d-th day. s=1, 2, 3 represent the calorific value, volatile matter, and sulfur content respectively.

[0096] The boiler has a coal quantity requirement for each type of coal. The constraints are Among them NL i NU i are the upper and lower limits of the quantity of the i-th type of coal respectively.

[0097] The boiler has requirements for the ratio of each type of coal. The constraints are: Among them, PL i PU i They are the upper and lower limits of the proportion of the i-th type of coal respectively.

[0098] Due to the limitation of coal bunkers in power plants, the total number of coal types is generally limited. in r , To select the upper and lower limits of the total number of coal types.

[0099] The model needs to select the coal type y id With x id Get in touch, And there is a minimum limit on the type and quantity of coal selected, i.e. N is the minimum quantity limit for each selected coal type, and M is a very large number.

[0100] In summary, the deterministic coal blending model established by the present invention taking into account coal combustion and carbon trading costs is as follows:

[0101]

[0102]

[0103]

[0104]

[0105]

[0106]

[0107]

[0108]

[0109]

[0110]

[0111] (2) The present invention establishes a DRO-KL coal blending model that takes into account coal combustion and carbon trading costs.

[0112] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the above deterministic coal allocation model considering carbon trading costs is constructed under the deterministic actual power generation demand, but the actual power generation demand l d Unknown, distribution is also unknown. The power generation value predicted by the LSTM+GBDT model in step 2 The power generation prediction error (ε) is the difference between the actual power generation value (l) and the predicted value The difference is Due to the influence of natural factors such as weather, temperature, and wind, there is uncertainty in the generation of new energy such as photovoltaic power generation and wind power generation, which leads to uncertainty in the load instructions issued to thermal power plants when the power grid performs load dispatch. The present invention proposes a data-driven fuzzy set of power generation prediction errors. Since KL divergence shows great advantages in predicting the uncertainty associated with weather changes, the present invention adopts Define the true distribution P and empirical distribution of power generation forecast error The KL divergence between .

[0113]

[0114] The present invention defines the fuzzy set of power generation prediction error under KL divergence:

[0115]

[0116] Where P is the true distribution of power generation forecast error, is the empirical distribution of power generation forecast error, ε is the true value of power generation forecast error, is the empirical value of power generation forecast error, is the true distribution P and the empirical distribution of power generation forecast error The KL divergence between them, δ is the empirical distribution of the distance The farthest KL divergence (radius), is the set of all probability distributions, is a fuzzy set under KL divergence.

[0117] Under the KL divergence fuzzy set of power generation forecast error, all distributed power generation forecast errors in the fuzzy set satisfy the worst case calorific value of the burned coal to meet the power generation demand. The constraints on power generation in the above deterministic coal blending model are satisfied. Replace the component blue stick constraint (DRO-KL constraint), that is but:

[0118]

[0119] The DRO-KL coal blending model established by the present invention considering coal burning and carbon trading costs is as follows:

[0131] Among them, Cp id is the cost of the i-th type of coal on day d, x id is the decision variable for coal quantity selection, y id is the decision variable for coal type selection, Car i is the carbon content per unit calorific value of the i-th coal, OF i is the carbon oxidation rate of the i-th coal, Q de is the power supply of the unit on day d, Be is the power supply reference value of the unit category, F1 is the unit cooling method correction coefficient, F r is the unit heat supply correction factor, F f is the unit load factor correction factor, l d is the actual power generation value, is the predicted power generation value, γ is the conversion coefficient between power generation and calorific value, η is the power generation efficiency of the unit, and q id is the calorific value of the i-th type of coal on the d-th day, MU s is the upper limit of coal type characteristics s, ML s is the lower limit of coal type characteristics s, M ids is the value of the characteristic s of the i-th type of coal on the d-th day, NL i is the upper limit of the quantity of the i-th type of coal, NU i is the lower limit of the quantity of the i-th type of coal, PL i is the upper limit of the proportion of the i-th coal, PU i is the lower limit of the proportion of the i-th type of coal, r is the upper limit of the total number of selected coal types, is the lower limit of the total number of selected coal types, N is the minimum limit of the amount of each selected coal type, M is a large number, ε d is the power generation forecast error on day d.

[0132] The present invention uses the strong duality theory to re-describe the DRO-KL constraints established above as:

[0133]

[0134] According to historical data, the LSTM+GBDT model is used to predict power generation, and the empirical probability distribution of the prediction error is approximately normal distribution. Assuming that the power generation prediction error follows the normal distribution N(μ, σ 2 ), the DRO-KL constraint is equivalently converted to the following formula:

[0135] (3) The present invention establishes a DRO-W coal blending model that takes into account coal combustion and carbon trading costs.

[0136] Since the fuzzy set based on KL divergence only considers samples in historical data and does not consider situations outside historical data, and the fuzzy set based on Wasserstein distance better considers samples outside historical data, the present invention establishes a DRO-W coal blending model that considers carbon trading costs.

[0137] use Define the true distribution P and empirical distribution of power generation forecast error The Wasserstein distance between them.

[0138]

[0139] The present invention defines the fuzzy set of power generation prediction error under Wasserstein distance:

[0140]

[0141] Where P is the true distribution of power generation forecast error, is the empirical distribution of power generation forecast error, ε is the true value of power generation forecast error, is the empirical value of power generation forecast error, is the Wasserstein distance between the true distribution and the empirical distribution of power generation forecast error, is the set of all probability distributions, τ is the radius of the fuzzy set based on Wasserstein distance, is a fuzzy set under Wasserstein distance, which is based on A sphere in the probability distribution space with centered and τ as radius.

[0142] Similarly, the constraints on power generation in the deterministic coal blending model are Replace the component blue stick constraint (DRO-W constraint), that is

[0143]

[0144] The DRO-W coal blending model established by the present invention taking into account coal burning and carbon trading costs is as follows:

[0148]

[0149]

[0150]

[0151]

[0152]

[0153]

It can be found that the average daily cost savings of the scheme given by the DRO-KL model is about 402,000 yuan, and the average daily cost savings of the scheme given by the DRO-W model is about 476,000 yuan.

[0170] The solution results of the DRO-KL and DRO-W models proposed in this invention are compared with the current coal blending scheme of the enterprise. The total cost results of the coal blending scheme are as follows: Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the total cost (the sum of coal cost and carbon dioxide cost) of the coal blending schemes of the DRO-KL model and the DRO-W model is lower than the cost of the company's current scheme.

[0171] In addition, this embodiment found that the DRO-KL model has a higher cost than the DRO-W model, that is, the DRO-KL model is more conservative than the DRO-W model. The present invention further analyzes the performance of the DRO-KL and DRO-W models in terms of coal cost, carbon trading cost, and carbon emissions. Figure 6 , which also verifies that the DRO-KL model is more conservative than the DRO-W model.
