Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy storage power station control, and particularly relates to a peak shaving and valley filling coordinated control method and system for an energy storage power station. Background Art

[0002] Peak shaving and valley filling is currently the main operating mode and profit model of user-side energy storage power stations. Peak shaving and valley filling refers to the energy storage system purchasing electricity from the grid and storing it in the energy storage system during low-load and low-electricity-price periods, and discharging the previously stored electricity to supply the required electricity during high-load and high-electricity-price periods, avoiding the direct large-scale use of high-priced grid electricity. This can not only alleviate the power supply pressure of the grid during peak electricity consumption periods, maintain stable operation of the grid load, and improve the grid utilization rate during low electricity consumption periods, but also help energy storage users achieve peak-valley electricity price arbitrage, creating considerable economic benefits for energy storage users.

[0003] However, there are also some problems with the energy storage system during peak shaving and valley filling operation. For example, when the energy storage system is discharging, if the total power consumption of the user is less than the discharge power of the energy storage system, the power of the energy storage system will flow back into the upper power grid, which will not only reduce the peak shaving and valley filling income of the energy storage system, but also cause grid fluctuations, affect the safe operation of the grid, and cause damage to personnel and equipment; or when the energy storage system is charging, if the charging power is too large, resulting in excessive total power consumption of the user, not only will the user's transformer be overloaded or even tripped, affecting the transformer's life and power safety, but also incur additional high electricity costs due to exceeding the agreed demand.

[0037] In this embodiment, the core of the coordinated control method for peak-shaving and valley-filling of energy storage power stations lies in the use of intelligent control strategies to enable the energy storage power station to flexibly adjust its charging and discharging behavior based on the real-time needs of the power grid and the preset peak-shaving and valley-filling plan, thereby optimizing the power grid load and improving energy utilization efficiency. The following are the specific implementation steps and principles of this method:

[0038] Plan value acceptance and time period judgment:

[0039] Steps: The system first receives the current time plan value P for peak shaving and valley filling set by the user or the dispatching system. plan .

[0044] Target power setting:

[0045] If P pcc +P ess -P plan >P dm , then set the target power P according to the constraint conditionstar1 If P tar1 If the calculated value is greater than 0, it is limited to 0 to avoid false discharge; otherwise, the target power P is further determined. tar1 Is it greater than the current maximum allowed charging power P? lowLmt If so, maintain the target power P tar1 unchanged, otherwise set the target power P tar1 = the current maximum allowed charging power P lowLmt .

[0046] Control: According to P tar1 Control the energy storage converter to charge.

[0050] Target power setting:

[0051] If P pcc +P ess -P plan <P rpp , then set the target power P according to the constraint conditions tar2 If P tar2 If the calculated value is less than 0, it is limited to 0 to avoid mischarging; otherwise, the target power P is further determined. tar2 Is it less than the current maximum allowed discharge power P? upLmt If so, maintain the target power P tar2 unchanged, otherwise set the target power P tar2 =The maximum discharge power allowed at present P upLmt .

[0052] Control: According to P tar2 Control the energy storage converter to discharge.

This method not only effectively balances the grid load, but also avoids adverse conditions such as overcharging and reverse flow through sophisticated power management strategies, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the energy storage system. In addition, by clarifying the positive and negative definitions and constraints of power, the practicality and reliability of the control method are further improved, providing strong support for intelligent grid management and efficient energy utilization.
