The power output limit may be a maximum power limit that the flywheel energy storage system can output when it intervenes in the grid frequency regulation. The intervention frequency may be a specific frequency value when the virtual synchronous machine intervenes in the grid frequency regulation.

[0081] The intervention timing may be a specific time point at which the virtual synchronous machine intervenes in the grid frequency regulation.

[0082] A virtual synchronous machine can be a power electronic device used for grid stability control, which simulates the dynamic characteristics of a traditional synchronous generator to provide the inertia, damping, and voltage support required by the grid.

[0083] Specifically, real-time monitoring data of the flywheel is collected through a second sensor (such as a flywheel speed sensor, a temperature sensor, etc.); the collected data such as the flywheel speed, temperature, and energy storage capacity are analyzed in real time to determine the current state of the flywheel energy storage system; based on the data analysis results, the maximum power and response speed that the flywheel energy storage system can provide are determined; the real-time monitoring of the grid frequency and the grid load connection status are analyzed to identify whether there are abnormal fluctuations; the virtual inertia is calculated based on the maximum power of the flywheel energy storage system, the grid load connection status, and the real-time monitoring of the grid frequency; based on the real-time monitoring of the grid frequency, the frequency threshold at which the virtual synchronous machine should intervene is determined; the virtual synchronous machine intervenes when the grid frequency deviates from the normal value to help stabilize the grid frequency; based on the maximum power and response speed of the flywheel energy storage system, the maximum power limit that the flywheel can output at the real-time intervention frequency is determined; based on the virtual inertia, power output limit, and grid frequency changes, the optimal intervention time of the virtual synchronous machine is determined; the calculated virtual inertia, power output limit, and intervention time are used as correction strategies and sent to the flywheel energy storage system through the PLC.

[0084] Through this solution, by real-time analysis of the second monitoring data, the flywheel energy storage system can quickly respond to changes in grid frequency and load, thereby improving the stability of the grid; based on the data analysis of maximum power and response speed, the flywheel energy storage system can optimize its power output and more effectively support the frequency regulation needs of the grid; analyzing the grid status, especially real-time monitoring of the grid frequency, can timely discover and reduce abnormal fluctuations in the grid and prevent damage to grid equipment; by monitoring the grid load connection, the flywheel energy storage system can adjust its charging and discharging strategy to adapt to changes in the grid load and ensure load balance; the calculation of virtual inertia helps to simulate the response of the flywheel to grid frequency fluctuations, thereby providing additional stable support; according to the real-time monitoring of the grid frequency, the virtual synchronous machine can adjust the intervention frequency in real time to help stabilize the grid frequency; the power output limit of the real-time intervention frequency ensures that the flywheel energy storage system does not exceed its design limit when providing support; the intervention timing of the virtual synchronous machine can be accurately determined according to the grid status and the real-time data of the flywheel energy storage system to maximize the frequency regulation effect; the virtual inertia, power output limit and intervention timing can be used as correction strategies, which can be implemented through the PLC control system to ensure that the operation strategy of the flywheel energy storage system matches the grid demand; through real-time monitoring and analysis, the intelligence level of the flywheel energy storage system is improved, and it can respond to the needs of the grid in a more adaptive and intelligent manner.

[0085] In some embodiments, based on the second data analysis result, the inertia characteristics of several flywheels and the total energy storage of all flywheels are determined; the load capacity of each flywheel is determined according to the grid load connection situation; the moment of inertia of each flywheel is determined according to the inertia characteristics; the grid inertia coefficient is determined according to the moment of inertia and the maximum power; the grid scale factor is determined according to the total energy storage and the load capacity of each flywheel; the renewable energy amount of the grid is obtained, and based on the renewable energy amount, the energy proportion of the total energy storage and the renewable energy amount is calculated to obtain the penetration influence coefficient of the renewable energy amount; the virtual inertia is determined based on the grid inertia coefficient, the grid scale factor, the penetration influence coefficient, and real-time monitoring of the grid frequency and the maximum power.

[0086] Inertial characteristics can be the physical properties exhibited by the flywheel energy storage system during energy storage and release, mainly including rotational inertia and energy storage capacity.

[0087] The total amount of energy storage may be the total energy that the flywheel energy storage system can store.

[0088] The load capacity can be the maximum load that the flywheel energy storage system can withstand when the grid load changes.

[0089] The moment of inertia can be the inertia of the flywheel when it rotates around its axis. The larger the moment of inertia, the stronger the flywheel's resistance to speed changes, that is, the slower the response to grid frequency fluctuations.

[0090] The grid inertia coefficient can be the grid's ability to resist frequency changes. The higher the inertia coefficient, the slower the grid responds to frequency fluctuations, but it can provide greater stability support.

[0091] The grid scale factor can be the overall scale and load distribution of the grid. The grid scale factor reflects the load level of the grid and determines the grid's demand for energy and its support capacity.

[0092] The amount of renewable energy can be the total amount of renewable energy generation in the grid. The amount of renewable energy reflects the proportion and contribution of clean energy in the grid. A high proportion of renewable energy means less mechanical inertia, which increases the demand for virtual inertia to compensate for the missing physical inertia. The penetration impact coefficient can be the degree of influence of the penetration of renewable energy in the grid on the operation of the grid.

[0093] Specifically, sensors and monitoring equipment are used to collect relevant data of the flywheel energy storage system, and the collected data are processed and analyzed to determine the inertia characteristics of each flywheel. Based on the data analysis results, the inertia characteristics (such as rotational inertia) of each flywheel and the total energy storage capacity of the energy storage system are determined. By monitoring the real-time data of the grid load, the load capacity of each flywheel, that is, the maximum load that each flywheel can withstand, is determined. The rotational inertia of each flywheel is calculated based on the inertia characteristics and physical characteristics of the flywheel. The grid inertia coefficient is calculated using the rotational inertia of each flywheel and the maximum power of the system. This coefficient reflects the grid's resistance to frequency changes. Based on the total energy storage and the load capacity of each flywheel, the grid scale factor is determined. This factor characterizes the overall scale and load distribution of the grid. By monitoring the renewable energy power generation in the grid, real-time data of renewable energy is obtained. Based on the amount of renewable energy and the total energy storage, their proportion in the total energy of the grid is calculated to obtain the penetration influence coefficient of the amount of renewable energy. The virtual inertia is calculated by combining the grid inertia coefficient, grid scale factor, penetration influence coefficient, real-time monitoring of grid frequency and maximum power.

[0094] Through this solution, by real-time analysis of the grid status and flywheel energy storage system data, it is possible to quickly respond to grid frequency changes and improve grid stability; based on the grid load connection status and the inertia characteristics of the flywheel, the management of the flywheel energy storage system can be optimized to ensure that the load capacity of each flywheel is fully utilized. Determining the grid inertia coefficient and grid scale factor can enhance the flywheel energy storage system's ability in grid frequency regulation, allowing it to respond more effectively to grid frequency fluctuations. By calculating the penetration impact coefficient of renewable energy, the access of renewable energy can be better managed and its penetration rate in the grid can be increased. According to the calculation results of virtual inertia, the operation strategy of the flywheel energy storage system can be adjusted in real time to more accurately meet the grid frequency regulation needs. By determining the rotational inertia and load capacity of each flywheel, the response speed of the flywheel energy storage system to grid frequency changes can be improved, allowing it to intervene in grid frequency regulation more quickly. By optimizing the operation strategy of the flywheel energy storage system, the amplitude of grid frequency changes can be reduced, reducing the impact of grid fluctuations on users and equipment. By adjusting the operation of the flywheel energy storage system in real time, the operation efficiency of the grid can be improved and energy loss can be reduced. The calculation of virtual inertia and real-time adjustment strategy enable the flywheel energy storage system to better adapt to the dynamic changes of the grid and improve the flexibility and adaptability of the grid.

[0095] In some embodiments, the virtual inertia is determined based on the grid inertia coefficient, the grid scale factor, the penetration influence coefficient, the real-time monitoring grid frequency and the maximum power, and is calculated according to the following formula (1):

[0096] (1)

[0097] in, represents virtual inertia; Indicates the maximum power; Indicates real-time monitoring of power grid frequency; Indicates the inertia coefficient of the power grid; represents the grid size factor; Represents the permeability influence coefficient.

[0098] Specifically, the grid inertia coefficient Represents the grid's ability to resist frequency changes. The greater the grid's inertia, the slower it responds to frequency changes. In a grid, grid inertia is mainly determined by the generator's rotational inertia. Grid size factor Represents the size or capacity of the power grid. The larger the size of the power grid, the stronger its energy storage capacity. Therefore, for the same power change, the frequency change will be smaller. Based on the dynamic response method, the grid size factor is determined: ; Permeability influence coefficient It expresses the penetration effect of intermittent energy such as renewable energy on the stability of grid frequency. The instability of renewable energy may lead to increased fluctuations in grid frequency, so this coefficient reflects the extent of this impact; Maximum power It is the maximum power output that the flywheel energy storage system can provide; real-time monitoring of grid frequency It is the deviation of the grid frequency from the set frequency. The frequency change of the grid is proportional to the power output of the flywheel system, that is, the greater the frequency change, the greater the power required by the flywheel system. Therefore, It represents the product of the maximum power that the flywheel system needs to provide when the grid frequency changes, the inertia characteristics of the grid, and the scale capacity. It can evaluate the maximum support power that the flywheel system needs to provide under the scale and inertia characteristics of the grid. The denominator It indicates that the actual change range of the grid frequency is determined according to the penetration effect of intermittent energy such as renewable energy on the stability of grid frequency. Finally, the virtual inertia The calculation result reflects the equivalent inertia of the synchronous generator that the flywheel system needs to simulate in order to offset the frequency change of the power grid; the equivalent virtual inertia that the flywheel system needs to simulate is obtained, so as to achieve a response similar to the frequency change of the synchronous generator in the power grid. According to the physical characteristics of the power grid and the inertia characteristics of the flywheel energy storage system, the power grid inertia coefficient is calculated; according to the overall scale and load distribution of the power grid, the power grid scale factor is calculated; according to the power generation of renewable energy in the power grid and its impact on the power grid frequency, the penetration influence coefficient is calculated; the change of the power grid frequency is monitored in real time to determine the frequency change amplitude within a specific time window; according to the design parameters and real-time operation data of the flywheel energy storage system, the maximum power that the system can output is determined; the parameters obtained by the above calculation are substituted into formula (1) to calculate the virtual inertia.

[0100] In some embodiments, historical change records are obtained and analyzed, and based on the record analysis results, the synchronization effect of the virtual synchronous machine on the grid frequency change and the stability effect of each flywheel's response speed on the grid are determined; based on the synchronization effect and the stability effect, the proportional gain is determined; the set frequency of the grid is obtained; and based on real-time monitoring of the grid frequency, the proportional gain and the set frequency, the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine is determined.

[0101] The historical change record can be a document or database that records the changes in key parameters such as grid frequency, load, and power generation over a period of time.

[0102] The synchronization impact can be the response capability and impact degree of the virtual synchronous machine to the change of the grid frequency.

[0103] The stabilizing effect can be the impact of the response speed and regulation capability of the flywheel energy storage system on the stability of the power grid.

[0104] The proportional gain may be a control parameter for adjusting the proportional relationship between the output power of the virtual synchronous machine and the change in grid frequency.

[0105] Specifically, collect and organize historical data on grid frequency changes; conduct a detailed analysis of the collected historical data to determine the synchronization impact of the virtual synchronous machine on grid frequency changes; analyze the impact of the response speed of each flywheel on grid stability; based on the analysis results, determine the degree of synchronization impact of the virtual synchronous machine on grid frequency changes; determine the degree of impact of the response speed of each flywheel on grid stability; based on the results of synchronization impact and stability impact, determine the proportional gain used to adjust the response ratio of the virtual synchronous machine; determine the standard operating frequency of the grid, usually 50Hz or 60Hz, depending on the standard of the grid; monitor the changes in grid frequency in real time to determine the current frequency change amplitude; calculate the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine.

[0107] In some embodiments, the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine is determined based on the real-time monitoring of the grid frequency, the proportional gain and the set frequency, and is calculated according to the following formula (2):

[0108] (2)

[0109] in, Indicates the real-time intervention frequency; represents proportional gain; Indicates the set frequency; Indicates real-time monitoring of power grid frequency.

[0110] Specifically, real-time monitoring of grid frequency The deviation of the current grid frequency from the set frequency, which can be positive (frequency increase) or negative (frequency decrease). : The rated or target frequency of the grid, usually 50Hz or 60Hz, depending on the country and region; Proportional gain : An adjustment parameter used to control the sensitivity of the virtual synchronous machine to changes in the grid frequency. The higher the proportional gain, the more sensitive the virtual synchronous machine is and the greater the change in the intervention frequency. According to control theory, the basic idea of ​​the proportional controller is to make the control action proportional to the error, which is the difference between the actual value of the grid frequency and the target value. Calculate the frequency deviation :First, it is necessary to determine the deviation between the current grid frequency and the set frequency. This deviation is the input of the control action, which indicates the direction and magnitude of the grid frequency adjustment. Then, the frequency deviation is multiplied by the proportional gain The role of the proportional gain is to amplify the frequency deviation, thereby determining the intensity of the control action. This product It is the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine. Calculation results It represents the power output that the virtual synchronous machine needs to generate in order to correct the grid frequency deviation. The value of the intervention frequency will be used to control the charging and discharging of the flywheel energy storage system, thereby simulating the behavior of the synchronous generator and stabilizing the grid frequency. The frequency data of the grid is monitored and collected in real time to determine the standard operating frequency of the grid, calculate the deviation between the current grid frequency and the set frequency, determine the value of the proportional gain based on historical data analysis or pre-set parameters, substitute the frequency deviation and proportional gain into formula (2), and calculate the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine.

[0111] Through this solution, by calculating and adjusting the real-time intervention frequency, the flywheel energy storage system can quickly respond to fluctuations in the grid frequency, help the grid return to the set frequency, and thus improve the stability of the grid. The real-time intervention frequency calculation enables the virtual synchronous machine to quickly intervene in the grid frequency modulation, reducing the duration of frequency fluctuations and improving the dynamic response speed of the grid; through real-time adjustment, the flywheel energy storage system can more effectively utilize its energy storage capacity, optimize the overall performance of the system, and reduce unnecessary energy consumption; the real-time adjustment of the proportional gain can be optimized according to the real-time state of the grid, making the response of the flywheel energy storage system more accurate and efficient; by quickly responding to frequency fluctuations, the risk of grid overload and failure can be reduced, and the safe operation level of the grid can be improved.

[0112] In some embodiments, the frequency deviation is determined based on real-time monitoring of the grid frequency; the frequency deviation is compared with a preset intervention threshold; when the frequency deviation is greater than the preset intervention threshold and the real-time intervention frequency is less than or equal to the maximum power, intervention is determined; when the frequency deviation is greater than the preset intervention threshold and the real-time intervention frequency is greater than the maximum power, the real-time intervention frequency is adjusted to the maximum power and intervention is performed; when the frequency deviation is less than the preset intervention threshold, no intervention is performed.

[0113] The frequency deviation may be the difference between the actual operating frequency of the power grid and the set set frequency.

[0114] The preset intervention threshold may be a critical value of a frequency deviation. When the grid frequency deviation exceeds the threshold, the virtual synchronous machine is started to adjust the frequency and the frequency is stored in a preset database.

[0115] Specifically, the grid frequency is monitored in real time and compared with the set frequency of the grid, the frequency deviation is calculated, and an intervention threshold of the frequency deviation is set according to the operating characteristics and safety requirements of the grid, and the calculated frequency deviation is compared with the preset intervention threshold; the real-time intervention frequency of the virtual synchronous machine is calculated using the preset proportional gain and the set frequency of the grid, as well as the real-time monitored grid frequency; the real-time intervention frequency is compared with the maximum power output limit of the flywheel energy storage system.

[0116] If the frequency deviation is greater than the intervention threshold and the real-time intervention frequency is less than or equal to the maximum power, intervention is determined. If the frequency deviation is greater than the intervention threshold, but the real-time intervention frequency is greater than the maximum power, the real-time intervention frequency is adjusted to the maximum power and intervention is performed. If the frequency deviation is less than the intervention threshold, no intervention is performed.

[0117] Through this solution, by real-time monitoring of grid frequency changes and determining the intervention timing of the virtual synchronous machine based on this, it is possible to quickly respond to grid frequency fluctuations, help the grid recover and maintain the set frequency, and thus improve the stability of the grid frequency; the calculation and adjustment of the real-time intervention frequency enables the virtual synchronous machine to quickly intervene in grid frequency regulation, reducing the duration of frequency fluctuations and improving the response speed and efficiency of grid frequency regulation; according to grid frequency changes and power output limitations, the energy storage capacity of the flywheel energy storage system can be more effectively utilized, the overall performance of the system can be optimized, and unnecessary energy consumption can be reduced; the real-time adjustment of the proportional gain (K_p) can be optimized according to the real-time state of the grid, making the response of the flywheel energy storage system more accurate and efficient; with the access of renewable energy and changes in load, the complexity of the grid increases. The calculation of the real-time intervention frequency helps to adapt to this complexity and improve the adaptability of the grid.

[0119] The current total energy storage may be the total energy stored by all flywheels in the flywheel energy storage system at a certain moment. The energy storage state may be the energy storage level of each flywheel, usually expressed as a percentage, e.g., the energy storage state of a flywheel may be 75%, meaning that it has stored 75% of its maximum capacity. Flywheel operation data may be specific data reflecting the real-time operation of the flywheel, including parameters such as the speed, temperature, current, and voltage of the flywheel. The working state may be the operating mode of the flywheel at a certain moment, such as "charging", "discharging", "standby" or "maintenance". The preset state assessment model may be an algorithm or logical framework for analyzing the operating data of the flywheel and assessing whether its working state is normal, stored in a preset database. The currently available energy storage space may be the total amount of additional energy that can be stored by all flywheels in the flywheel energy storage system in the current state.

[0120] Specifically, the operating data of each flywheel is collected from the monitoring system of the flywheel energy storage system, and the current total energy storage of each flywheel is calculated based on the collected data; the total energy storage of all flywheels is summarized, and the current total energy storage of each flywheel is compared with the total energy storage of all flywheels to determine the energy storage status of each flywheel; the real-time operating data of each flywheel is collected, and the operating data is analyzed to determine the working status of each flywheel; the working status of each flywheel is input into a preset status assessment model; if the assessment result shows that there is an abnormality, further analysis and correction are performed; if there is no abnormality, the currently available energy storage space is determined based on the energy storage status of each flywheel; and the storage unit that can be used for buffering is determined in combination with the currently available storage space and the real-time intervention frequency.

[0122] In some embodiments, power grid data is acquired, analyzed, and power grid change nodes are determined; based on the power grid change nodes, the power grid change time is determined; based on the power grid change time, the power grid change frequency is determined; the power grid change frequency is compared with a preset change threshold, and if the power grid change frequency is greater than the preset change threshold, it is determined that the power grid has abnormal fluctuations.

[0123] A grid change node may be a specific moment or point where the grid state changes significantly, such as a sudden change in grid load, a rapid fluctuation in grid frequency, or a large change in voltage when the amount of renewable energy generation changes suddenly. A grid change time may be a specific moment when the grid state changes, such as a peak load moment in a day, or the time when an event occurs, such as a grid failure or switching operation. A grid change frequency may be the number of times the grid state changes per unit time, which is used to measure the frequency of grid state fluctuations. A preset change threshold may be a standard or limit used to determine whether the grid state change exceeds a normal range.

[0124] Specifically, real-time data including voltage, frequency, load, phase angle and other parameters are collected from the power grid monitoring system, and the collected power grid data is analyzed in real time, and data smoothing and filtering techniques are used to remove noise and extract useful signals; the processed data are analyzed to identify nodes where the power grid state has changed significantly, which may indicate a sudden change in the power grid state or a change in trend. In order to determine the immediacy of the power grid state change, the time points at which these changes occur are recorded according to the power grid change nodes, the intervals between the power grid change time points are analyzed, and the frequency of power grid state changes is calculated; the calculated power grid change frequency is compared with a preset change threshold set based on power grid operation experience and safety requirements. If the power grid change frequency is greater than the preset change threshold, it is determined that the power grid has abnormal fluctuations.
