[0002] With the increase in the penetration rate of photovoltaic in the distribution network, the traditional distribution network power flow will change, and even reverse power flow will occur, resulting in the rise of the voltage at the end of the distribution network. In rural distribution networks with less load, due to the small total load and high photovoltaic penetration rate, the voltage rise phenomenon is more serious. When the voltage rises too high, it will affect the safety of the power grid and easily cause problems such as damage to electrical appliances and the disconnection of photovoltaic inverters from operation.

[0055] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments described in the present invention are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the spirit of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0056] Embodiment 1:

[0057] The embodiment of the present invention provides a multi-level control method for distributed photovoltaic in the low-voltage distribution network area, including:

[0058] Monitoring whether the voltage at the distributed photovoltaic grid connection point is greater than or equal to the set overvoltage threshold. If so, the first to fourth level controls are sequentially executed from low to high in priority order. After each level of control, it is judged whether the current voltage is lower than the overvoltage threshold. If it is lower, the next level of control is not executed, and the voltage at the grid connection point is continuously monitored. If the current voltage is within the set recovery threshold, the previous control operations are gradually exited in the reverse order of the priority; the recovery threshold is lower than the overvoltage threshold; where:

[0059] The first level of control includes load regulation of household appliances in the user's home layer;

[0060] The second level of control includes load regulation of various adjustable resources in the low-voltage distribution network area layer;

[0061] The third level of control includes reactive power regulation of photovoltaic inverters in the photovoltaic grid connection layer;

[0062] The fourth level of control includes active power regulation of photovoltaic inverters in the photovoltaic grid connection layer.

[0063] The following combines the Figure 1 topological structure of the low-voltage distribution network area shown to make a specific introduction to the multi-level control method provided by the present invention; Figure 1 Among them, distributed photovoltaics are installed at nodes 3, 11, 19, 25, and 28, with capacities of 5 kW, 5 kW, 5 kW, 10 kW, and 10 kW respectively; the household appliances at nodes 3 and 19 are adjustable, with maximum adjustment capacities of 2 kW and 3 kW respectively; electric vehicle charging piles are installed at nodes 8 and 30, with a charging power of 3 kW; energy storage is installed at node 13, with a charging power of 4 kW.

[0064] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, the distributed photovoltaic multi-level regulation method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0065] S1: Collect the voltage at the photovoltaic grid connection point. In this embodiment, the real-time voltage of each grid connection point is obtained by collecting the meter voltage at the photovoltaic grid connection point in real time.

[0066] S2: Before each level of regulation, judge whether the voltages at the photovoltaic grid connection points of nodes 3, 11, 19, 25, and 28 are greater than or equal to the set voltage threshold. If so, perform the first to fourth level of regulation in ascending order of priority. After each level of regulation, judge whether the voltage is lower than the overvoltage threshold. If it is lower, do not perform the next level of regulation. In this embodiment, the overvoltage threshold U over is set to 242V; if the voltage is within the voltage recovery threshold U restore during the regulation process at each level, gradually exit the regulation operation in the reverse order of the above regulation; in this embodiment, the voltage recovery threshold is set to 235V, and the rated voltage of the power grid is 220V.

[0067] S3: The first-level regulation is to adjust the load of household appliances in the user's home layer.

[0068] Specifically, nodes 3 and 19 have the ability to adjust the load of household appliances in the home layer. Use the home energy gateway to monitor whether the electricity consumption load in the user's home is less than the photovoltaic power generation of this household. If it is less, according to the adjustable capacity P i,1 of the household load reported by the user in advance and the user comfort factor λ i,1 , generate a first-level regulation strategy and send a demand response adjustment plan to the user, including the response time period and the target response power P i,dst1 :

[0069] P i,dst1 =λ i,1 ×P i,1,max

[0070] In the formula, P i,dst1 represents the target response power sent to user i during the t response period; P i,t,max represents the adjustable capacity reported by user i; λ i,1 represents the comfort factor reported by user i, 0 ≤ λ i,1 ≤ 1.

[0071] Furthermore, the user can choose to start the adjustable appliances in the home or adjust the operating power of the appliances, including but not limited to flexible loads such as air conditioners, electric water heaters, and electric heating; the power grid signs a demand response agreement with residential users, and users report information such as adjustable appliances, regulation methods, adjustable capacity, and adjustable time periods that can participate in regulation to the power grid in advance; the power grid issues incentives such as electricity price discounts and green points to users, as well as the time period and power size that need to be adjusted; after the regulation ends, the power grid calculates the user's response volume.

[0072] In a preferred but non-limiting embodiment, the user of Node 3 reports an adjustable capacity of 2 kW and a user comfort factor of 0.8; the user of Node 19 reports an adjustable capacity of 3 kW and a user comfort factor of 0.7. When it is monitored that the voltage at the PV grid connection point of Node 3 exceeds the overvoltage threshold of 242 V, the first-level regulation is initiated, and an adjustment instruction to increase the household load by 2 kW * 0.8 = 1.6 kW is issued. For Node 19 when the voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold of 242 V, an adjustment instruction to increase the household load by 3 kW * 0.7 = 2.1 kW is issued. After a delay of waiting for a period of time, in this example, 1 minute after the instruction is issued, if the grid connection point voltage still exceeds the overvoltage threshold of 242 V, the second-level regulation is initiated.

[0073] If there is no adjustable load in the household, or the household appliances of the residents do not participate in the adjustment response, there is no first-level regulation, and it jumps to the second-level regulation method.

[0074] S4: The second-level regulation is the load regulation for adjusting adjustable resources such as energy storage and electric vehicle charging at the low-voltage distribution substation area level.

[0075] Specifically, through the substation area intelligent terminal, according to the location information of the overvoltage PV grid connection point and the location information of the adjustable resources, based on the substation area line topology relationship, the adjustable resources that can participate in the adjustment are aggregated; combined with influencing factors such as user willingness, user cooperation degree, and load controllability, a flexible adjustment task P is issued to the adjustable resources in the substation area 2task , including but not limited to energy storage input, electric vehicle charging, changing the operation mode of industrial and commercial load equipment to increase the operating power, transferring the load operation to the current period, etc., polling all adjustable loads in the substation area. Based on the flexible adjustment power corresponding to each of the adjustable resources, the adjustable resources in the substation area are polled in turn in the order from near to far from the end of the substation area topology and the corresponding load adjustment is performed to reduce the voltage at the distributed PV grid connection point. After each adjustment, it is monitored whether the grid connection point is overvoltage. If all grid connection points are lower than the overvoltage threshold, the adjustment of the remaining unadjusted adjustable resources in the substation area is no longer performed.

[0076] Among them, the calculation formula of the flexible adjustment power is as follows:

[0077]

[0078] In the formula, P j,2task represents the flexible adjustment power of the adjustable resource j; P j represents the single adjustable load capacity of the adjustable resource j; F j is the adjustable proportion coefficient of the adjustable resource j, F j ≤ 1.

[0079] In a preferred but non-limiting embodiment, the adjustable proportion coefficient of the charging pile is set to 0.5, and the adjustable proportion coefficient of the energy storage is set to 0.8; then the flexible adjustment tasks of the charging piles at nodes 8 and 30 are 3 kW * 0.5 = 1.5 kW; the flexible adjustment task at the energy storage at node 13 is 4 kW * 0.8 = 3.2 kW. Based on the topological relationship of the distribution network lines, adjustment instructions are sequentially sent to nodes 13, 30, and 8. Wait for a period of time. In this example, 1 minute after the instruction is sent, if the grid connection point voltage still exceeds the overvoltage threshold of 242 V, then the third-level regulation and control is started.

[0080] S5: The third-level regulation and control is the reactive power regulation of the photovoltaic inverters in the photovoltaic grid connection layer.

[0081] Specifically, the adjustable range of the power factor of the photovoltaic inverter is set through the home energy gateway. Within the adjustable range, the power factor is gradually adjusted to output inductive reactive power, and the change of the photovoltaic grid connection point voltage is monitored. When the reactive power reaches its maximum adjustable range, if the voltage still continues to rise, then the next-level regulation and control is executed.

[0082] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic inverters in the distribution network are sequentially polled in the order from near to far from the end of the distribution network topology and corresponding reactive power regulation is performed; among them, the expression of the single adjustment increment for the reactive power regulation of each photovoltaic inverter is as follows:

[0083] Q i,调节 =N qi ×Q i,pvmax

[0084]

[0085] In the formula, Q i,调节 represents the single reactive power adjustment value of the photovoltaic inverter of user i; N qi is the reactive power regulation proportion coefficient of the photovoltaic inverter of user i, N qi ≤1; Q i,pvmax represents the maximum rigid reactive power that the photovoltaic inverter of user i can output; S i,pv is the capacity of the photovoltaic inverter of user i, P i,pv is the active power currently output by the photovoltaic inverter of user i.

[0086] As an embodiment of the present invention, the active power currently output by the photovoltaic inverter at node 3 is 4 kW, and the capacity of the photovoltaic inverter is 5 VA, then N qi is set to 0.2, then Q 3,调节 =0.2×3=0.6 kvar.

[0087] Further, increase the reactive power of the PV inverters at nodes 3, 11, 19, 25, and 28 in sequence according to the order from near to far from the topology end of the substation area. If the voltage still exceeds the overvoltage threshold, start the next round of reactive power regulation until the reactive power reaches its maximum regulation range; when the reactive power reaches its maximum regulation range, if the voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold, perform the next-level regulation.

[0088] S6: The fourth-level regulation is the active power regulation of the PV inverters in the PV grid-connected layer.

[0089] Specifically, decompose and regulate the power by weighting according to the installed capacity and the current grid connection point voltage, and reduce the active power output ΔP of the PV inverter i,4 , perform polling control on the PVs in the substation area, and monitor the voltage change at the PV grid connection point until the voltage is less than the overvoltage threshold, then it can operate in normal grid connection.

[0090] In a preferred but non-limiting embodiment, poll each PV inverter in the substation area in sequence according to the order from near to far from the topology end of the substation area and perform corresponding active power regulation; among them, the expression of the single-time reduction amount of active power regulation for each of the PV inverters is as follows:

[0091]

[0092] In the formula, ΔP i,4 represents the single-time reduction amount of active power of the PV inverter of user i, S reference is the average declared capacity of all PV inverters in the substation area, S i,pv is the declared PV capacity of user i, ΔP reference is the set active power regulation value, and α i is the weighted regulation factor of the PV inverter of user i:

[0093]

[0094] In the formula, U i represents the grid connection voltage of the PV inverter of user i, and U over represents the overvoltage threshold.

[0095] Further, the grid connection voltage at node 3 is 250V, and S reference is 7kW, then

[0096] ΔP reference = 5%S reference = 0.35kW, The calculation method of the active power regulation amount at other nodes is as above.

[0097]

[0098] ​In this embodiment, the active power output of the PV inverters at nodes 3, 11, 19, 25, and 28 is sequentially reduced in the order from near to far from the end of the topological structure of the substation area. If the voltage still exceeds the overvoltage threshold, the next round of active power regulation is started until the voltage at the node is less than the overvoltage threshold.

[0099] S7: If the voltage is within the recovery threshold during the above-mentioned regulation processes at all levels, the regulation operations are gradually exited in the reverse order of the above-mentioned regulation; in this embodiment, the voltage recovery threshold is configured as 235V.

[0100] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows. Compared with the prior art:

[0101] The present invention incorporates the adjustable household appliances and the adjustable load resources in the substation area into the flexible resource package of the substation area, greatly improving the adjustable potential of the substation area. Flexible regulation is carried out through a multi-level regulation method, and reactive power regulation and active power output regulation are performed on the PV inverters based on the topological relationship of the substation area lines. On the premise of ensuring the safety of power supply and consumption, the grid connection and consumption of distributed PV are maximally realized; the problems such as overvoltage, damage to electrical appliances, power supply and consumption safety, and the disconnection of PV inverters in the substation area with a large number of distributed PV accesses are solved, realizing the autonomous balance of source and load on the substation area side, ensuring the power supply safety of the distribution network, and being suitable for popularization and application.
