DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] An embodiment of the present invention provides an environmental assessment method for a photovoltaic power station. The method can be applied to electronic devices, such as computer terminals, specifically ordinary computers, tablets, etc.

Figure 1 As shown, the computer terminal may include one or more ( Figure 1 Only one is shown in the figure) a processor 102 (the processor 102 may include but is not limited to a processing device such as a microprocessor MCU or a programmable logic device FPGA) and a memory 104 for storing data. Optionally, the computer terminal may also include a transmission device 106 for communication functions and an input and output device 108. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that Figure 1 The structure shown is only for illustration and does not limit the structure of the above-mentioned computer terminal.

[0019] The memory 104 can be used to store software programs and modules of application software, such as program instructions / modules corresponding to the environmental assessment method of the photovoltaic power station in the embodiment of the present application. The processor 102 executes various functional applications and data processing by running the software programs and modules stored in the memory 104, that is, to implement the above method.

[0021] In recent years, with the rapid development of technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, and cloud computing, environmental information collection equipment has been widely used, and can collect various environmental data around photovoltaic power stations in real time and accurately. These devices have achieved all-round and high-precision monitoring of the photovoltaic power station environment through sensor networks, providing a solid foundation for the preprocessing and in-depth analysis of environmental data. However, simply collecting environmental data is not enough to directly guide the optimized operation and scientific management of photovoltaic power stations. In order to make full use of these valuable data resources, it is necessary to build a scientific and reasonable evaluation index system to comprehensively and objectively reflect the operating environment of photovoltaic power stations. At the same time, it is also necessary to develop corresponding algorithm models to determine the evaluation factors of each evaluation parameter based on environmental feature data and its evaluation index system, and obtain accurate environmental evaluation results based on this. In summary, the automation and intelligence level of photovoltaic power station environmental assessment needs to be improved, especially in the real-time collection, preprocessing, construction of evaluation index system, and generation of evaluation results of environmental data. Therefore, developing a method that can obtain real-time environmental data of photovoltaic power stations and finally obtain scientific and accurate environmental assessment results through preprocessing, construction of evaluation index system and determination of evaluation parameters is of great significance for improving the operating efficiency of photovoltaic power stations, reducing operation and maintenance costs, extending equipment life and ensuring operation safety.

[0022] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic flow chart of an environmental assessment method for a photovoltaic power station provided by an embodiment of the present invention may include the following steps: S201: Acquire environmental data of a photovoltaic power station to be evaluated in real time through at least one environmental information collection device.

[0023] Specifically, real-time acquisition of environmental data of the PV power plant to be evaluated is an important prerequisite for ensuring efficient operation and optimized maintenance of the PV power plant. This can usually be achieved by installing professional PV environmental monitoring equipment that can collect and transmit key environmental parameters in real time.

[0024] For example, obtaining the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated in real time through at least one environmental information collection device may include: The visual data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated is collected by the intelligent image acquisition component in the environmental information acquisition device; the visual data includes the cleanliness, damage and shadow occlusion of the surface of the photovoltaic panels monitored by the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated; Collecting basic meteorological data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated through the meteorological data sensing component in the environmental information collection device; the basic meteorological data includes the ambient temperature, ambient humidity and wind speed data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated; and The solar radiation data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated is collected by the radiation data collection component in the environmental information collection device; the solar radiation data includes the total radiation, scattered radiation and albedo radiation data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated.

[0025] Specifically, the intelligent image acquisition component in the environmental information acquisition device can capture the visual data of the photovoltaic power plant to be evaluated in real time. This data is not limited to static images, but may also include video streams for detailed monitoring of various conditions on the surface of photovoltaic panels. Specifically, the collection of visual data covers the following aspects: Cleanliness monitoring: By analyzing the image of the photovoltaic panel surface, its cleanliness can be judged. Dust, dirt or other contaminants will reduce the light transmittance and power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel.

[0026] Damage detection: Image acquisition components can capture cracks, breaks or other physical damage on photovoltaic panels. Timely detection and repair of these damages can prevent further performance degradation and safety hazards.

[0027] Shadow analysis: Shadows on photovoltaic panels can significantly reduce their power generation efficiency. Intelligent image acquisition components can be used to monitor in real time whether photovoltaic panels are blocked by trees, buildings or other obstacles, thereby optimizing the layout and maintenance strategy of photovoltaic power stations.

[0028] The meteorological data sensing component in the environmental information collection device is responsible for collecting the basic meteorological data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated. The basic meteorological data mainly includes: ambient temperature, ambient humidity and wind speed data. Among them, the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels is significantly affected by the ambient temperature. High temperature will increase the internal resistance of photovoltaic panels, thereby reducing power generation efficiency. Excessive ambient humidity may affect the heat dissipation effect of photovoltaic panels, thereby affecting their performance. Wind speed not only affects the heat dissipation of photovoltaic panels, but also may bring pollutants such as sand, dust, and debris, causing damage to photovoltaic panels.

[0029] Through the radiation data acquisition component in the environmental information acquisition device, the solar radiation data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated can be obtained in real time. These data directly determine the power generation potential of the photovoltaic power station and are important parameters for evaluating its performance. Solar radiation data mainly include: total radiation, diffuse radiation and albedo radiation, among which total radiation is the total amount of solar radiation on the horizontal plane, including direct radiation and diffuse radiation. Diffuse radiation refers to the solar radiation that reaches the ground after being scattered by the atmosphere. Albedo radiation refers to the radiation energy reflected back to the sky from the surface. In a photovoltaic power station, the size of the albedo radiation is related to the reflection characteristics of the ground cover (such as vegetation, buildings, etc.).

[0030] In summary, the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated can be obtained in real time through environmental information collection equipment, covering multiple aspects such as visual data, basic meteorological data and solar radiation data. These data provide comprehensive and accurate information support for the operation management, performance evaluation and fault warning of photovoltaic power stations.

[0031] S202: Preprocessing the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated to generate environmental characteristic data.

[0032] Specifically, preprocessing the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated is an important step in the data analysis and evaluation process. The purpose of preprocessing is to clean and organize the original data, extract useful information, and generate environmental characteristic data that can be used for subsequent analysis.

[0033] First, the collected environmental data needs to be cleaned to remove noise, outliers, and missing values. For example, through statistical analysis, domain value setting, or machine learning-based methods, identify and process those abnormal data points that are significantly deviated from the normal range. These outliers may be caused by equipment failure, extreme weather conditions, or data collection errors. Then for missing data points, appropriate filling strategies can be selected according to the characteristics of the data, such as using the mean, median, mode, or model-based predicted values ​​to fill. If there are too many missing values ​​or they cannot be filled reasonably, you may need to delete the records containing missing values. Finally, for some continuously changing data (such as temperature, humidity, etc.), smoothing can be used to reduce random fluctuations and improve the stability and analyzability of the data. Commonly used smoothing methods include moving average, exponential smoothing, etc.

[0034] After data cleaning, data from different acquisition devices or at different time points need to be integrated to form a unified data set. At the same time, the data also needs to be converted as necessary to meet the needs of subsequent analysis. For example, through time synchronization, ensure that data from different acquisition devices are consistent in time to facilitate subsequent time series analysis or data comparison. Or unify the units of all relevant data to the same standard to avoid analysis errors caused by inconsistent units. For high-dimensional data (such as data sets containing multiple environmental parameters), dimensionality reduction can be performed through principal component analysis (PCA), factor analysis and other methods to extract the main environmental characteristics.

[0035] Feature extraction is a key step in generating environmental feature data. By extracting key features that can reflect the operating environment and performance of photovoltaic power stations, it can provide strong support for subsequent analysis and evaluation. Specific methods may include: calculating the statistics of environmental parameters (such as mean, variance, standard deviation, extreme value, etc.) to reflect the overall characteristics and distribution of the data. For time series data (such as temperature, humidity, etc.), trend features, periodic features, seasonal features, etc. can be extracted to reveal the law of data changes over time. For image data obtained by intelligent image acquisition components, image processing techniques (such as edge detection, texture analysis, shape recognition, etc.) can be used to extract features such as cleanliness, damage, and shadow occlusion on the surface of photovoltaic panels.

[0036] After extracting a large number of features, feature selection is required to screen out the most valuable features for subsequent analysis and evaluation. Feature selection methods include filtering, packaging, and embedding. Through feature selection, data redundancy and noise can be reduced, and the accuracy and efficiency of the analysis model can be improved. After the above steps, the final generated environmental feature data will contain a series of cleaned, integrated, converted, and feature-extracted data sets. These data sets will serve as inputs for subsequent analysis and evaluation to evaluate the operating performance of photovoltaic power plants, predict power generation potential, identify potential problems, and develop corresponding optimization strategies.

[0037] Exemplarily, the preprocessing of the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated to generate environmental characteristic data may include: 1. Evaluate the environmental data of each photovoltaic power station to be evaluated by pre-setting environmental parameters, and construct an environmental characteristic evaluation matrix; 2. Perform normalization test on the environmental feature evaluation matrix; 3. Based on the normalized and verified environmental feature evaluation matrix, feature extraction of environmental data is performed to achieve high entropy data formed by screening out key feature information from the environmental data as environmental feature data.

[0038] Specifically, a set of preset environmental parameters are first defined, which should be able to fully reflect the key environmental factors of the operation of photovoltaic power stations. These parameters may include but are not limited to light intensity, temperature, humidity, wind speed, shadow occlusion, photovoltaic panel cleanliness, etc. Then, for each photovoltaic power station to be evaluated, these preset environmental parameters are evaluated based on the results of its environmental data collection. The evaluation process may involve data conversion, calculation of statistical indicators (such as mean, median, standard deviation, etc.) or application of specific evaluation models. After the evaluation is completed, the evaluation results are organized into an environmental feature evaluation matrix. Each row of this matrix represents the evaluation result of an environmental parameter, and each column represents the evaluation data of a photovoltaic power station.

[0039] Since the dimensions and ranges of different environmental parameters may be different, direct comparison or analysis may lead to bias. Therefore, it is necessary to normalize the environmental characteristic assessment matrix to eliminate the impact of dimension and range differences. The purpose of normalization is to convert each element in the matrix to the same numerical range, usually between 0 and 1. This can be achieved through different normalization methods, such as minimum-maximum normalization, Z-score normalization, etc. After completing the normalization process, the normalization results need to be tested to ensure that no new bias or errors are introduced during the processing.

[0040] After the normalization test is passed, the next step is to perform feature extraction of environmental data. The purpose of feature extraction is to filter out the most valuable key feature information for the operation performance and evaluation of photovoltaic power plants from a large amount of environmental data. This process may involve a variety of methods and techniques, such as principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), feature selection algorithms (such as filtering, packaging, embedding, etc.). Through these methods, the environmental features that have the greatest impact on the performance of photovoltaic power plants can be identified, and a high-entropy (i.e., large amount of information) environmental feature data set can be constructed.

[0041] Finally, the key feature information screened out through the feature extraction process will form high-entropy environmental feature data. These data not only have a high amount of information, but also can accurately reflect the operating environment and performance status of the photovoltaic power station. The high-entropy environmental feature data will be used as input for subsequent analysis and evaluation, and will be used for performance evaluation, power generation potential prediction, fault diagnosis, and optimization strategy formulation of photovoltaic power stations. In summary, by performing pre-processing steps such as preset environmental parameter evaluation, normalization test, and feature extraction on the environmental data of the photovoltaic power station to be evaluated, high-entropy environmental feature data can be generated, providing strong support for subsequent analysis and evaluation work.

[0042] S203: Constructing an evaluation index system for the environmental characteristic data.

[0043] Specifically, the construction of the evaluation index system for the environmental characteristic data may include: Based on the assessment scope and evaluation scale of the environmental characteristic data, the risk factors of the photovoltaic power station and their associated characteristics are determined; each of the risk factors of the photovoltaic power station and their associated characteristics are pieced together into a two-dimensional matrix as an input data set for training the environmental assessment neural network model to form an assessment index system for the environmental characteristic data.

[0044] First, determine the scope and scale of the assessment, and clarify which environmental characteristic data will be included in the assessment scope, which usually includes but is not limited to meteorological conditions (such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, radiation, etc.), geographical location characteristics (such as latitude, altitude, terrain, etc.), surrounding environmental conditions (such as shadows, air quality, etc.) and photovoltaic panel status (such as cleanliness, damage, etc.). The evaluation scale includes setting one or more evaluation scales for each environmental characteristic. These scales can be quantitative (such as a specific numerical range), semi-quantitative or qualitative. The selection of the evaluation scale should be based on its impact on the operational risk of the photovoltaic power station and its quantifiability.

[0045] Then, based on the empirical data and professional knowledge of photovoltaic power station operation, identify the risk factors that may affect the power generation efficiency, operation stability and maintenance cost of photovoltaic power stations. These risk factors may include but are not limited to extreme weather, shadowing, equipment aging, insufficient cleaning, etc. For each risk factor, analyze its correlation with environmental characteristic data to determine which environmental characteristic data can directly or indirectly reflect or predict the probability of occurrence or impact of the risk factor.

[0046] Construct a two-dimensional matrix as the input data set, and organize the identified risk factors and their associated features into the form of a two-dimensional matrix. The rows of the matrix represent different risk factors, and the columns represent different evaluation indicators or features related to the environmental characteristic data. Fill in the corresponding positions in the two-dimensional matrix according to the actual collected environmental characteristic data. For missing data, interpolation, prediction or default values ​​can be used to fill it.

[0047] Secondly, train the environment evaluation neural network model and select a suitable neural network model (such as multi-layer perceptron, convolutional neural network, recurrent neural network, etc.) for environment evaluation. The choice of model should be based on the characteristics of the data, the complexity of the evaluation, and the limitation of computing resources. Use the constructed two-dimensional matrix as the input data set to train the neural network model. During the training process, adjust the parameters and structure of the model to minimize the prediction error or maximize the evaluation accuracy. Evaluate the performance of the model through methods such as cross-validation, and perform parameter tuning and model structure optimization as needed.

[0048] Finally, an evaluation index system is formed, and key evaluation indicators are extracted from the trained neural network model. These indicators can be the input features of the model, hidden layer nodes or prediction results of the output layer. Based on the extracted evaluation indicators, a complete set of environmental feature data evaluation index system is constructed. The system should be able to comprehensively and accurately reflect the risk status of the operating environment of the photovoltaic power station and provide a scientific basis for subsequent decision support and optimization.

[0049] Through the above steps, a complete risk assessment indicator system can be built based on environmental characteristic data, and the accuracy and efficiency of the assessment can be improved by training the environmental assessment neural network model. This is of great significance for the operation management and risk prevention and control of photovoltaic power stations.

[0050] S204: Determine evaluation parameters and evaluation factors of the environmental characteristic data based on the environmental characteristic data and the evaluation index system.

[0051] Specifically, determining the evaluation parameters and evaluation factors of the environmental characteristic data based on the environmental characteristic data and the evaluation index system may include: Step 1: Divide the environmental characteristic data into evaluation index layer data, evaluation element layer data and evaluation target layer data; Step 2: Based on the evaluation index system, pairwise comparisons are performed on the data of each layer to obtain the importance of the data of each layer; Step 3: Compare the importance of each layer of elements with the data of the previous layer to obtain the evaluation parameters and evaluation factors of the environmental characteristic data.

[0052] Exemplarily, the environmental characteristic data can first be divided into three levels, such as evaluation index layer data, evaluation factor layer data and evaluation target layer data. Among them, the evaluation target layer data represents the overall goal of the entire evaluation system, such as "comprehensive evaluation of environmental characteristics of photovoltaic power stations". The evaluation factor layer data contains the main aspects or elements that constitute the evaluation target, such as "weather conditions", "geographic location", "surrounding environment" and "photovoltaic panel status". The evaluation index layer data includes quantifiable evaluation indicators, such as "temperature", "humidity", "wind speed", "radiation", etc.

[0053] For the evaluation index layer data, each index is compared in pairs to evaluate their relative importance. For example, the influence of "temperature" and "radiation" on the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic power stations is compared.

[0054] For the evaluation factor layer data, pairwise comparisons are also performed to evaluate the contribution of different factors to the overall evaluation target. For example, the impact of "weather conditions" and "geographic location" on the operating environment of photovoltaic power stations is compared.

[0055] Use tools such as the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to construct a judgment matrix to represent the relative importance of each element. The elements of the judgment matrix can be obtained through expert scoring, questionnaires, etc. Perform a consistency test on the judgment matrix to ensure the consistency and rationality of the comparison results. Then, based on the importance of each layer of elements, select several parameters that have the greatest impact on the evaluation target as evaluation parameters. These parameters should be able to fully reflect the environmental characteristics of the photovoltaic power station and have high representativeness and sensitivity.

[0056] The importance of the evaluation parameters of the evaluation index layer data is compared with the evaluation factor layer data to further determine the position and weight of the evaluation parameters in the overall evaluation system. At the same time, the evaluation elements of the evaluation factor layer data are compared with the evaluation target layer data to ensure the logic and consistency of the entire evaluation system.

[0057] For each evaluation parameter, determine the corresponding evaluation factor according to its characteristics and evaluation requirements. The evaluation factor can be a quantitative value range, a grade classification, or a qualitative description. For example, for the evaluation parameter "temperature", "temperature < 25℃ is excellent, 25℃ ≤ temperature < 35℃ is good, and temperature ≥ 35℃ is poor" can be set as the evaluation factor.

[0058] Finally, the various evaluation parameters and their evaluation factors are combined for evaluation. This can be achieved through weighted summation, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation and other methods. According to the specific situation and evaluation requirements of the photovoltaic power station, appropriate weights are assigned to different evaluation parameters and evaluation factors, and they are calculated and sorted according to a certain algorithm to obtain a comprehensive evaluation result.

[0059] Through the above steps, we can systematically determine the evaluation parameters and evaluation factors of environmental characteristic data, and provide a scientific basis for the operation management and risk prevention and control of photovoltaic power stations.

[0060] 205: Determine an environmental assessment result of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed based on the assessment parameters and assessment factors of the environmental characteristic data.

[0061] Specifically, the determining the environmental assessment result of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed based on the assessment parameters and assessment factors of the environmental characteristic data may include: Based on the assessment parameters and assessment factors of the environmental characteristic data, the entropy weight method is adopted to calculate the environmental assessment risk value of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed, so as to obtain the overall environmental assessment risk value of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed and quantify the environmental assessment result of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed.

[0062] Among them, the entropy weight method is an effective method to calculate the environmental assessment risk value of the photovoltaic power station to be assessed. It can determine the weight of each assessment parameter in the overall assessment by quantifying its information entropy, thereby obtaining a more objective and accurate assessment result. The following are the steps for calculating the environmental assessment risk value using the entropy weight method based on the assessment parameters and assessment factors of the environmental characteristic data: First, collect the environmental characteristic data of the PV power plant to be evaluated. These data should cover all the determined evaluation parameters and evaluation factors. Since the units and dimensions of different evaluation parameters may be different, the collected data needs to be standardized for subsequent calculation and analysis. The standardization method can be selected according to the nature of the data, such as linear transformation, normalization, etc.

[0063] Secondly, the standardized data is constructed into a decision matrix, where the rows represent different evaluation parameters (or evaluation factors) and the columns represent different samples (such as different time periods, different monitoring points, etc.). Each element in the decision matrix is ​​normalized to obtain a probability matrix. The normalization method is usually to divide the elements of a column by the sum of the elements of the column so that the sum of the elements of each column is 1. Finally, the information entropy of each evaluation parameter is calculated based on the probability matrix.
