Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microgrid application technology for energy storage and renewable energy, specifically relating to a microgrid self-dispatch method and system that provides active backup and includes energy storage devices. Background Technology
[0002] Since 1990, global carbon dioxide emissions from the power system and industry have been increasing at a rate of 2.3% per year, exacerbating a series of problems such as climate change and environmental pollution. The global consensus on addressing climate change and promoting sustainable development includes: significantly reducing the carbon intensity of the power grid, actively developing renewable energy, and transforming the current energy sector into a clean, low-carbon, environmentally friendly, safe, and efficient energy system.
[0003] Due to the influence of weather factors such as wind speed and solar intensity, renewable energy power generation, represented by wind and solar power, exhibits characteristics such as high intermittency, strong volatility, high randomness, poor controllability, and low prediction accuracy. This leads to increasingly prominent issues in the balance of energy supply and demand and security in the power system, posing a significant challenge to the safe, stable, and reliable operation of the power system. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to efficiently integrate a high proportion of renewable energy into the power grid while ensuring its safe and stable operation.
[0004] Energy storage devices, as the most representative flexible and adjustable resource, can store and transfer energy through charging and discharging functions. They can remove the constraint that power production, transmission, and consumption must be completed simultaneously; fully leverage the complementary functions of multiple resource coupling; improve the renewable energy absorption rate and power quality; and provide strong support for renewable energy grid integration. Therefore, they are a key technology for improving the security, economy, and flexibility of the power system and for building a new energy system.
[0005] Microgrids are small-scale power systems that primarily utilize renewable energy generation and employ energy storage devices for regulation to meet load demands. They possess complete power generation, distribution, and consumption functions. Microgrids can serve as a buffer between renewable energy sources and the main power grid, effectively mitigating the impact of the randomness and intermittency of renewable energy on the external grid. They improve renewable energy penetration, power quality, power supply reliability, and energy efficiency, providing new opportunities for the application of renewable energy in power systems, thereby maximizing economic and environmental benefits.
[0006] Currently, research on microgrid systems incorporating energy storage and renewable energy primarily focuses on dispatching issues with power balance as the main concern. The main grid plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe and stable operation of the system by providing sufficient backup services to these energy storage systems to compensate for potential fluctuations. In this case, the system is considered a backup consumer. However, this operating mode increases the backup burden on the main grid and the difficulty of its dispatching, and the backup potential of systems with energy storage devices is not fully utilized, making it not an economically reliable solution. As a highly efficient and fast-responding device, energy storage has the ability to quickly provide positive and negative backups to the system, and the reliability of the backups provided is comparable to that provided by traditional generating units, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the system. However, the understanding of microgrid systems incorporating energy storage and renewable energy as backup providers is still significantly lacking.
[0007] Therefore, further optimizing energy storage functions, actively promoting the application of energy storage technology in the standby auxiliary market, fully tapping the potential of energy storage, enhancing the flexibility of grid operation, and improving the economic efficiency of the system are important directions for the development of new power systems and important means to cope with the challenges of large-scale uncertain power injection.

[0060] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention provide a microgrid self-dispatch system with energy storage devices that provides active backup, characterized in that it includes:
[0061] The system module constructs a system framework for microgrid self-dispatch technology that includes energy storage devices and provides active backup.
[0062] The data module analyzes the scheduling process of a microgrid with energy storage devices that provides active backup within the system framework of microgrid self-dispatch technology. It establishes a decision-dependent uncertainty set for the uncertainties of positive and negative backup demand. Based on the acquired historical information of random factors, it establishes uncertainty sets for renewable energy and load demand.
[0063] The function module obtains key parameters of the microgrid system, constructs an objective function with the goal of minimizing the operating cost under the desired scenario, and builds a multi-stage robust optimization model of the microgrid with energy storage equipment based on the obtained renewable energy and load demand uncertainty set to provide active backup.
[0064] The optimization module, based on the obtained multi-stage robust optimization model of the microgrid with energy storage equipment that provides active backup, utilizes its constraint structure characteristics to establish a scheduling scheme for the microgrid system that meets feasibility and security requirements at various time periods.
[0065] The scheduling module establishes a day-ahead scheduling model for a microgrid with energy storage that provides active backup, based on the obtained multi-stage robust optimization model and scheduling scheme. It solves for the decision feasibility range, optimal positive and negative backup capacity, and optimal power injection curve of the microgrid system, and realizes microgrid self-schedule based on the results.
[0066] Thirdly, a computer device includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor, when executing the computer program, implements the steps of the above-described method for providing active backup in a microgrid with energy storage.
[0067] Fourthly, embodiments of the present invention provide a computer-readable storage medium including a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the above-described microgrid self-dispatch method for providing active backup with energy storage devices.
[0068] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0069] This paper proposes a self-dispatch method for microgrids with energy storage devices that provide active backup. Leveraging an understanding of microgrid system dispatching methods and a deep dive into the backup capabilities of energy storage systems, a system framework diagram of this technology is established. This diagram accurately describes the main functions of each component in a microgrid with energy storage providing backup, as well as the dispatching logic and process. Based on the system framework diagram, the paper analyzes the dispatching process of a microgrid with energy storage providing backup and establishes a decision-dependent uncertainty set for the range of positive and negative backup demand uncertainties. Based on historical data of stochastic factors in the microgrid system, uncertainty sets for renewable energy (wind power, photovoltaic, etc.) and load demand are established to describe the distribution and changes of stochastic factors. This paper presents a system framework diagram of a microgrid self-dispatch technology with energy storage that provides active backup, and two types of uncertainty sets. A multi-stage robust optimization model for the microgrid with energy storage that provides active backup is established. This model comprehensively considers the dispatch process of the microgrid with energy storage providing backup, the physical characteristics of each physical device, and the operating conditions of the microgrid system, and can reasonably reflect the dispatch characteristics of the microgrid with energy storage providing active backup. Through analysis of the constraint structure in the multi-stage model of the microgrid with energy storage that provides active backup, an effective method is proposed. This method can provide the effective positive and negative backup capacity that ensures the safe operation of the microgrid system and can cope with uncertain backup demands, the day-ahead power injection curve that ensures the safe operation of the microgrid system, and the safe dispatch range for decision-making in each time period. If the physical devices in the microgrid system are reasonably scheduled within the safe range, the positive and negative reserve requirements of the external system or the main grid are within the given positive and negative reserve capacity range, and the main grid provides power to the microgrid according to the power injection curve, then the realization of any random factor in the uncertainty set can be guaranteed to be handled. Based on the positive and negative reserve capacity, the day-ahead power injection curve, and the safe scheduling range of the decision given above, a hybrid integer programming scheduling model for microgrids with energy storage devices that provides active backup can be established. This model aims to optimize the operating cost under the desired scenario.
[0070] Furthermore, by acquiring the equipment composition of the microgrid system and establishing a system framework diagram for microgrid self-dispatch technology that provides active backup and includes energy storage devices, technical support can be provided for the self-dispatch of microgrids that provide active backup and include energy storage devices.
[0071] Furthermore, based on the scheduling process and method of reserve provision, a decision-dependent uncertainty set is established for the range of uncertainties in positive and negative reserve demand.
[0072] Furthermore, obtaining relevant information such as equipment parameters, uncertain parameters (electricity load, wind power output, photovoltaic output), and economic parameters can provide data support for the self-dispatch of microgrids with energy storage devices that provide active backup.
[0073] Furthermore, an uncertainty set is established for random factors such as electricity load, wind power output, and photovoltaic output to reflect the range of variation of uncertainties and make it consistent with the actual situation.
[0074] Furthermore, taking the minimization of operating costs under the desired scenario within the scheduling cycle as the objective function, and comprehensively considering the operational requirements of self-scheduled microgrids with energy storage providing active backup, a multi-stage robust optimization model for microgrids with energy storage providing active backup is established. This model is a conceptual model; theoretically, the scheduling scheme obtained by this model can guarantee the security and feasibility of the scheduling scheme and improve its operational economy. However, since this model needs to consider the feasibility under scenarios with an infinite number of random factors, it cannot directly obtain an economically feasible scheduling scheme.
[0075] Furthermore, through the analysis of a multi-stage robust optimization model of a microgrid with energy storage providing active backup, the feasible range for ensuring the safe operation of the dispatch scheme, the positive and negative backup capacities for ensuring system safety and feasibility, and the power injection curve from the main grid to the microgrid are presented. For microgrid systems with energy storage under different parameters, if it can be guaranteed that each main grid can install the optimal power injection curve to provide power to the microgrid in the day-ahead and that the dispatch schemes for each time period are within the safe decision range, then any positive or negative backup demand from the external system or the main grid within the positive and negative backup capacity range, and any realized value of random variables in the future time period (within a given uncertainty set), can be handled by the microgrid system with energy storage.
[0076] It is understandable that the beneficial effects of the second aspect mentioned above can be found in the relevant descriptions in the first aspect mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.
[0077] In summary, this invention provides an economically feasible dispatching scheme for microgrids with active backup and energy storage devices, and provides technical support for the economic feasibility of planning schemes for microgrids with active backup and energy storage devices.

Furthermore, those skilled in the art can design regions / layers with different shapes, sizes, and relative positions as needed.
[0097] Please see Figure 1A microgrid with energy storage devices that provides active backup includes an energy storage system, electrical loads (including detachable loads, portable loads, and flexible loads), and renewable energy power plants such as wind and solar power. This microgrid is connected to the main grid system and can exchange energy with it, meaning it can both purchase and sell electricity to the main grid. Furthermore, the energy storage system, electrical loads, and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power are connected via the same bus, enabling direct energy exchange within the microgrid. This means the loads can obtain electricity from the energy storage system and the renewable energy power plants; the energy storage system can supply electricity to the loads and also obtain electricity from the renewable energy power plants; and the renewable energy power plants can supply electricity to the loads and the energy storage system.
[0098] The specific structural features of the microgrid with active backup and energy storage devices provided by this invention are as follows:
[0099] Battery energy storage systems include battery packs, battery management systems, power conversion systems, collection lines, and other auxiliary equipment, used for the storage, conversion, and release of electrical energy;
[0100] A photovoltaic power station includes a photovoltaic array, a charge and discharge controller, a battery, and an inverter. It uses the photovoltaic effect at the semiconductor interface to directly convert light energy into electrical energy.
[0101] Wind power generation includes wind turbine generators, towers supporting the generators, battery charging controllers, inverters, unloaders, grid connection controllers, and battery banks, which convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy.
[0102] Electrical loads are categorized into various industrial loads, agricultural loads, transportation loads, and residential loads, consuming electrical energy to enable the operation of industry, agriculture, transportation, and daily life. The total load of a power system is the sum of the total power consumed by all electrical equipment within the system.
[0103] Compared to the power system or other market participants, microgrid systems with energy storage have lower capacity and therefore participate in the market as price takers. Decision variables are divided into two categories based on the different stages of dispatch: day-ahead decision variables and real-time decision variables. Day-ahead decision variables include increasing positive / negative reserve capacity to the main grid or external systems (gray solid line) and the day-ahead power injection curve (orange solid line). Real-time decision variables include the amount of positive / negative reserve provided to the main grid (green dashed line) and dispatch decisions within the microgrid (black dashed line), such as the charging / discharging power of energy storage and the amount of renewable energy output discarded. The dispatch process is described below.
[0104] In the current phase, microgrids with energy storage, acting as independent backup suppliers, will engage in two transactions with the main grid:
[0105] 1) Positive / negative reserve capacity provided to external systems or the main power grid;
[0106] 2) The power injection curve represents the power received by the microgrid from the main grid. This is an important resource for ensuring system feasibility. The following two points need to be explained regarding the power injection curve.
[0107] First, the concept of a "power injection curve" is introduced primarily to distinguish it from the "exchange power" concept in the standby consumer model. Both refer to the amount of power exchanged between the microgrid and the main grid, with positive values indicating the main grid provides power to the microgrid (buying power from the main grid), and negative values indicating the microgrid provides surplus power to the main grid (selling power to the main grid). The key difference is that the power injection curve is a deterministic curve determined day-ahead, rather than over a specific region. This means that the exchange power between the microgrid and the main grid remains constant during dispatch, and the main grid does not need to provide additional backup services. Therefore, the dispatching difficulty and burden on the main grid are reduced accordingly.
[0108] Secondly, even if the system does not consider providing backup, the power injection profile may still be necessary to ensure the feasibility of the system.
[0109] Once the day-ahead decision is made, the microgrid with energy storage can not only achieve optimal self-dispatch in the real-time phase in response to any uncertainty, but also provide backup services to the main grid within the day-ahead given reserve capacity.
[0110] This invention provides a microgrid with active backup and energy storage devices that can cope with uncertain renewable energy output and uncertain load demand without the need for backup support from the main grid, and achieve optimal self-dispatch; it can also provide backup services to external systems (or the main grid) when backup demand is uncertain, thereby increasing microgrid revenue and reducing total operating costs.
[0111] Please see Figure 2 The present invention provides a microgrid self-dispatch method with energy storage devices that provides active backup, comprising the following steps:
[0112] S1. Establish a system framework diagram for microgrid self-dispatch technology that provides active backup and includes energy storage devices;
[0113] Specifically, it includes:
[0114] (1) The composition of a microgrid system with energy storage as a backup provider;
[0115] (2) The operation mode includes a microgrid system with energy storage to provide backup.
[0116] In the current phase, microgrids with energy storage, acting as independent backup suppliers, will engage in two transactions with the main grid:
[0117] 1) Positive / negative reserve capacity provided to external systems or the main power grid;
[0118] 2) The power injection curve from which the microgrid obtains (provides) power to the main grid is an important resource for meeting system feasibility requirements.
[0119] The power injection curve is a deterministic curve determined day-ahead, not a specific region. Once the day-ahead decision is made, the microgrid with energy storage can not only achieve optimal self-dispatch for any uncertainty in the real-time phase, but also provide backup services to the main grid within the day-ahead given reserve capacity.
[0120] S2. Based on the system framework diagram, analyze the scheduling process of providing backup for microgrids with energy storage, and establish a decision-dependent uncertainty set for the uncertainty of positive and negative backup demand; based on the historical information of the acquired random factors, establish uncertainty sets for renewable energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics, as well as load demand.
[0121] Specifically, it includes:
[0122] (1) Decision depends on uncertainty set
[0123]
[0124] Where t is the current scheduling period; and For the positive and negative backup requirements during time period t; and The positive and negative reserve capacity limits for time period t.
[0125] (2) Obtain the parameters of the uncertainty set, including the upper and lower limits of wind power output in time period t. and upper and lower limits of photovoltaic power output during period t and Load demand upper and lower limits during period t and And establish uncertain sets for wind power output, photovoltaic power output, and load demand.
[0126]
[0127]
[0128] in, and For wind and solar power output during period t; d t Let t represent the load demand during the time period.
[0129] S3. Obtain key system parameters and, with the goal of minimizing operating costs under the desired scenario, establish a multi-stage robust optimization model for a microgrid containing energy storage devices as a backup provider under the uncertainty set obtained in step S2.
[0130] Specifically, it includes:
[0131] (1) Energy storage system parameters, such as the upper and lower limits of energy storage capacity, the energy storage system charge and discharge efficiency coefficient, and the energy storage system maximum charge and discharge power;
[0132] (2) Operating parameters, such as total scheduling cycle, length of each scheduling period, and power exchanged with the main network;
[0133] (3) Economic parameters, such as the price at which the microgrid system buys electricity from the main grid and the price at which it sells electricity to the main grid, as well as the positive and negative reserve prices.
[0134] With the goal of minimizing operating costs under desired scenarios, a multi-stage robust optimization model for microgrids with energy storage devices that provide active backup is established.
[0135] 1) Objective function
[0136] The goal of the multi-stage robust optimization model for microgrids with energy storage that provides active backup is to minimize the system operating cost during the scheduling cycle.

For time period t, the day-ahead power injection from the microgrid to the main grid (positive or negative); d t and These represent the upper and lower limits of load demand during time period t; and For time period t, the positive and negative reserve capacity limits are defined.

[0165] First, for the sake of brevity, the decision variables for the real-time stage are abbreviated as:
[0166]
[0167] To simplify the constraint structure and facilitate subsequent analysis, E is selected. t As a core variable, it replaces the real-time stage decision variable in the constraints. and The specific details are as follows.
[0168] First, according to equations (5) and (6), This is equivalent to equation (13).

[0250] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0251] A microgrid system, including energy storage, wind farm, and photovoltaic units, is planned to be constructed in a microgrid park. The project aims to obtain relevant information for dispatching the microgrid system with energy storage equipment to provide active backup. Table 1 shows the main parameters of the microgrid system. Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 It displays information related to load demand, wind power output, and photovoltaic power output.
[0252] Table 1 Main parameters of the microgrid system
[0253]
[0254] Table 1 provides scheduling parameters for 24 time periods, with each period lasting one hour. This microgrid system can exchange energy with the gateway, meaning it can buy or sell electricity to the gateway, with a maximum purchase capacity of 4MW and a maximum sales capacity of 4MW. Additionally, the microgrid system includes energy storage devices for energy transfer, with a physical energy level range of [2, 7.6] MWh. Initially, the energy storage devices have an energy level of 4.8 MWh, a maximum charge / discharge power of 2MW, and a charge / discharge efficiency of 90%.
[0255] Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 It involves 24 time periods, with each time period having a length of 1, including upper and lower limits of load demand, expected load demand, upper and lower limits of wind power output, expected wind power output, upper and lower limits of photovoltaic output, and expected photovoltaic output.
[0256] Based on the above parameters and uncertainties, the scheduling performance of this method in the day-ahead phase is as follows: Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown.
[0257] The recent dispatch results are as follows Figure 8 As shown, the orange solid line is the power injection curve, and the heights of the green and blue bar regions represent the maximum negative and positive reserve capacity that the microgrid can provide, respectively.
[0258] The power injection curve is determined in the day-ahead phase, and based on this curve, the main grid provides (obtains) specific power values to (from) the microgrid in the real-time phase. Calculations of the microgrid dispatch problem show that when the injected power is zero in each time period in this case, there is no feasible dispatch scheme for the microgrid. This means that the injected power is necessary for the stability and security of the microgrid. This is because energy storage can only transfer energy and cannot generate energy, and therefore may not be able to fill the power difference between wind power output and load demand. Furthermore, from... Figure 8The trend of the orange solid line (power injection curve) shows that when the PJM market electricity price is low, the microgrid tends to buy electricity from the main grid (positive power injection), and vice versa. Therefore, it can be proven that the dispatching results obtained based on the method proposed in this invention meet the economic requirements.
[0259] in addition, Figure 8 This demonstrates the day-ahead positive and negative reserve capacity that a microgrid with energy storage, based on the methods proposed in this chapter, can provide to the main grid or external systems. From Figure 8 As can be seen, microgrids with energy storage can provide sufficient positive and negative backup capacity, indicating that the system has great potential in providing backup services. Figure 8 For any positive or negative reserve demand within the given reserve capacity, the microgrid can find a feasible scheduling scheme according to the method proposed in this invention.
[0260] Finally, the range of feasible scheduling solutions is analyzed, i.e., the energy level feasible / safe domain of the energy storage device, such as... Figure 9 As shown. According to Figure 9 From this, we can draw the following conclusions: First, due to operational constraints, especially cross-time coupling constraints, the feasible region for energy storage capacity is usually smaller than its physical boundary. Second, Figure 9 The fact that the feasible region is non-empty indicates that for Figures 5 to 7 Arbitrary output values of renewable energy and Figure 8 For any reserve demand within the medium reserve capacity range, a microgrid always has a feasible solution that satisfies all operational constraints. For operators, the robust feasible region is extremely convenient; they only need to make appropriate decisions within the feasible region at each time period to effectively cope with complex system constraints and uncertainties.
[0261] In summary, the present invention provides a microgrid self-dispatch method and system with energy storage devices that provides active backup. The microgrid with energy storage can act as a backup provider, providing backup auxiliary services to external systems or the main grid, thereby increasing the total revenue of the microgrid.
