Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of power information processing, and more specifically, relates to an energy efficiency improvement method and system based on double-layer intelligent agent swarming control. Background Art
[0002] With the deteriorating environment and the continuous enhancement of the greenhouse effect, the development model of "high energy consumption, high pollution, and huge energy consumption" has become a common problem faced by countries around the world. Since high-energy-consuming enterprises are large energy consumers, their energy supply systems often integrate multiple energy sources such as wind energy, solar energy, natural gas, coal, and electricity. There are multi-energy coupling and topological correlation structures between their equipment. It is necessary to consider multi-energy complementary operation methods on the basis of ensuring the stable and reasonable energy supply of various types of equipment, so as to improve the overall energy efficiency of high-energy-consuming enterprises. At the same time, with the advancement of new energy supply construction, enterprises often consider the resource endowment of the region to introduce wind energy, solar energy and other energy supply equipment and energy storage equipment, so it is necessary to further consider the problem of promoting the consumption of new energy, formulate a multi-energy scheduling optimization strategy for time-varying tracking, and realize the high-efficiency operation of multi-energy alliances. Traditional energy control methods are difficult to solve the coordination and optimization problems between different energy sources, including challenges in collaborative control, energy complementarity and flow tracking between multiple energy sources. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out research on energy efficiency improvement technology solutions for high-energy-consuming enterprises.
[0003] At present, in terms of improving enterprise energy efficiency, a patent with publication number CN105204333A has proposed an energy consumption prediction method for improving the energy utilization rate of steel enterprises. It uses a neural network algorithm with error feedback correction learning to predict the energy consumption of each process of the enterprise, improve energy utilization rate, and reduce total production costs. There is also a patent with publication number CN105204333A that proposes an enterprise energy efficiency management system and its control method, which automatically collects relevant data of various equipment in the thermal system in various links such as energy production, transportation, conversion, distribution, and consumption, calculates economic indicators, connects the indicators to form a curve, and adjusts the equipment according to the rising and falling trend of the curve. However, the existing technologies have the following problems: (1) They all fail to consider that enterprise energy supply is a dynamic time-varying process. In particular, with the advancement of new energy supply construction, enterprises need to take into account multi-energy coupling regulation and promote new energy consumption at the same time, and form a time-varying tracking energy regulation strategy that meets the quantitative evaluation of multiple indicators. (2) Only one indicator is used to evaluate the enterprise, and the preference of the enterprise's multi-dimensional indicators is not fully considered. (3) Due to the complex relationship between multiple energy supplies in high-energy-consuming enterprises, the existing technology for overall energy consumption control is difficult and ineffective. Summary of the invention

[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, embodiment 1 of the present invention provides an energy efficiency improvement method based on double-layer intelligent agent swarming control, comprising:
[0085] Obtain time-series energy usage samples of high-energy-consuming enterprises, wherein the time-series energy usage samples of high-energy-consuming enterprises include energy usage characteristic data, enterprise-related data, and energy constraint data.
[0086] Preferably, the energy consumption characteristic data in the time series energy consumption samples of high energy consumption enterprises include the energy consumption cost, energy consumption and energy power of electricity, gas, heat, cold and new energy of enterprise equipment;
[0087] The enterprise-related data in the time-series energy consumption samples of high-energy-consuming enterprises include enterprise equipment physical topology data, enterprise equipment production-related data, and energy consumption-related data;
[0088] The energy constraint data in the time-series energy consumption samples of high-energy-consuming enterprises include the enterprise energy constraint range, the energy output power constraint range at a certain time, and the minimum and maximum values of the total ramp rate of different energy supplies for different equipment at a certain time.
[0089] Specifically, the embodiment uses the new generation of electricity consumption information collection system of State Grid Corporation as the background platform, and obtains the time-series energy consumption sample data of A Steel Company from the electricity consumption information collection system of a certain province of State Grid, the energy metering integrated collection terminal, etc., including electricity, gas, heat, cold, new energy and other energy consumption characteristic data, enterprise-related data, energy constraint data, and selects historical data from January 2023 to January 2024 as the sample set. Among them, the power generation of photovoltaic and wind turbines has significant volatility according to the changes in the external environment; the thermal load is mainly used for production heat demand, and the demand fluctuation only changes with the production and operation mode of the enterprise, and is basically not affected by the external environment; industrial cold is mainly used for production cold and constant production environment temperature and other needs. The cold load shows a small fluctuation throughout the year, but the demand is large in summer.
[0090] Among them, Steel Company A has built energy conversion equipment such as photovoltaics, fans, electric energy storage, thermal energy storage, transformers, gas turbines, heat exchangers, and compression refrigerators to provide energy for production equipment such as rolling mills, rolling mills, heating furnaces, vertical rollers, conveyor rollers, hydraulic cylinders, coilers, straighteners, and flatteners. The sample includes the enterprise-related data formed by the above equipment.
[0091] In order to compare and illustrate the feasibility of this patented method for comprehensive energy efficiency evaluation and improvement of high-energy-consuming enterprises under changes in external environment, energy supply demand, and operation mode, a typical scenario of energy efficiency evaluation of steel enterprise A considering differences in energy demand and environmental changes is constructed, as shown in Table 1:
[0092] Table 1A Typical scenarios for energy efficiency assessment of steel enterprises
[0093]
[0094]
[0095] Among them, considering the volatility of photovoltaic and wind turbine power generation with changes in the external environment, by setting power generation thresholds respectively, two types of typical energy supply states were constructed, namely sufficient power generation and insufficient power generation; considering the large demand for cooling load in summer, two types of typical energy demand states were constructed, namely summer (25 degrees and above) and other seasons. A total of 8 typical scenarios were constructed and enterprise energy efficiency evaluation was carried out.
[0096] Based on the acquired energy consumption characteristic data, energy efficiency output indicators are constructed, wherein the energy efficiency output indicators include the enterprise energy saving cost ratio, comprehensive energy utilization rate and energy consumption quality satisfaction;
[0097] Preferably, the enterprise energy-saving cost ratio in the energy efficiency output index is used to characterize the change in the cost ratio of electricity and gas charges at all times before and after the energy consumption regulation of the enterprise within the set time period and the electricity and gas charges at the corresponding time before the adjustment;
[0098] The comprehensive energy utilization rate in the energy efficiency output index represents the degree of complementarity between different energy sources of the enterprise within a set time period;
[0099] The energy quality satisfaction in the energy efficiency output index ensures the energy consumption efficiency of the enterprise.
[0100] Preferably, the enterprise energy-saving cost index is comparative data. When steel enterprise A conducts energy efficiency regulation according to the strategy of increasing or decreasing the input of each equipment and energy at the next moment, the change of its energy consumption cost payment will directly affect the enterprise's operating costs. Therefore, the calculation formula of the enterprise energy-saving cost ratio is defined as:
[0101] The specific calculation formula for the enterprise energy saving cost ratio is:
[0102]
[0103] In the formula, C represents the energy-saving cost ratio of the enterprise; Respectively represent the energy consumption of the enterprise before and after the adjustment of the t s The change in electricity and gas charges at the data sampling time, among which,
[0104] They represent the electricity and gas expenditure costs of the enterprise before the energy adjustment. They represent the electricity and gas expenditure costs of the enterprise after the energy consumption is adjusted; e represents electricity, g represents gas, and T represents a regulation time period, that is, the time period from the weak effective state before the adjustment to the end of the regulation. The T time is divided into several sampling moments, t s Indicates the data sampling time; the smaller C is, the more energy the enterprise saves and the lower the operating cost.
[0105] Preferably, the comprehensive energy utilization rate calculation formula in the energy efficiency output index is specifically:
[0106]
[0107] Where Rc represents the comprehensive energy utilization rate; r t′ Indicates any wind, solar, hydropower, thermal power, gas from t s Time to t s The complementary coefficient at the +1 moment, the smaller the complementary coefficient, the more the fluctuation of energy consumption is offset, and the stronger the complementarity between energy sources; They represent the cumulative energy consumption fluctuation rates of wind power, photovoltaic power, hydropower, thermal power, and gas in the time window t′ respectively; Respectively represent Energy in t s +1 time and t s Energy consumption at any time, For the Energy in [t s ,t s +1] Maximum energy consumption during the period, or gas.
[0108] It should be noted that The smaller it is, the more the fluctuation of energy consumption of the multi-energy alliance is offset, and the stronger the complementarity between the energy sources. By quantitatively evaluating the complementarity of wind, light, water, fire, gas and other energy outputs as an energy efficiency evaluation indicator, the rationality of the coordinated operation model between energy sources can be improved based on the feedback adjustment of this indicator in the later stage, thereby improving the overall operational energy efficiency of A Steel Company;
[0109] Preferably, in view of the multi-energy operation of steel enterprise A, the stability of its energy supply should be ensured first, so as to avoid problems such as randomness of new energy output, which may cause losses to the enterprise's equipment and its production operations. The traditional energy analysis method does not take into account the changes in energy quality, so it is adopted The analytical method is used to evaluate the energy quality loss and use it as an energy efficiency evaluation indicator for energy quality satisfaction. The specific calculation formula for energy quality satisfaction is:
[0110]

The value of must be no less than 0 and cannot exceed the output power of the kth energy source at a certain moment. The value of must be between the maximum and minimum values of the total ramp rate of all devices of the k-th energy source at a time. If any value exceeds its range, its nearest boundary constraint value is taken as its value. The energy consumption control range constraint condition is expressed as:

[0146] Combined with the constructed device interaction constraints, the control input form of the second agent is formulated, and the second agent determines the energy consumption input of different energy sources and different devices at the next moment based on the control input form.
[0147] It should be noted that any first agent can track a designated second agent, that is, the total energy input of the first agent will converge to the total energy input allocated and obtained by the second agent.

The superscript g indicates that the function is an energy consumption control rule function. The device node obtains the quantitative data of the unit energy consumption and cumulative energy consumption of other device nodes associated with it based on the information interaction between undirected graphs. If there is an interaction constraint between two devices at time t, then their energy consumption control rule f i g (v) as follows:

Input various energy data of the sample set into the constructed energy efficiency evaluation model of high-energy-consuming energy-consuming units to obtain the mean value of the enterprise energy efficiency optimization evaluation before each typical scenario, as shown in Table 2:

Among them, the enterprise energy saving cost is the evaluation index data after the enterprise energy efficiency optimization, so it is 0 at this time; the comprehensive energy utilization rate represents the complementary effect between various energy sources, so the lower the value, the better; the energy quality satisfaction is The value represents the ratio of energy consumption output to input, and the larger the value, the better; the higher the efficiency value of the timing decision unit, the better the comprehensive evaluation value of the enterprise's energy efficiency. Its maximum ideal value is 1, indicating that all links of the enterprise are in an effective state. At this time, the input relaxation value and the output relaxation value are both 0; the lower the input relaxation value and the output relaxation value, the better.
[0167] Taking scenario 1 as an example, in view of the greater random variation of solar energy and photovoltaic output during the energy tracking process, in order to demonstrate the energy tracking performance of the method described in this patent, the photovoltaic energy supply ratio and the wind turbine energy supply ratio are selected on the horizontal and vertical axes respectively, such as Figure 3The blue dots shown in the figure are the state of PV energy supply accounting for 3.5% and wind turbine energy supply accounting for 3% at a certain moment in scenario 1. Before the enterprise energy efficiency optimization, the energy consumption growth rate of the equipment new energy (including PV and wind turbine output) represented by the black nodes is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the arrows at each node, the direction of the energy consumption growth rate makes it difficult to effectively track the changing state of new energy.
[0168] This patent adopts a double-layer intelligent agent swarming control method to extract the new energy consumption input data of each device in sample set 2 that meets the photovoltaic energy supply ratio of 3.5% and the wind turbine energy supply ratio of 3%, such as Figure 4 As shown, by adopting the patented method, the energy supply growth rate of each device can effectively track the time-varying energy supply.

[0170] Table 3 Average evaluation of energy efficiency after optimization in each typical scenario
[0171]
[0172]
[0173] In order to compare and illustrate the effectiveness of the patent method, the energy-saving cost rate, comprehensive energy utilization rate, energy quality satisfaction, and timing decision unit efficiency values of Table 2 and Table 3 are processed by difference; the input relaxation value and output relaxation value are processed by difference, and then divided by the data acquisition percentage before optimization, such as Figure 5 As shown:
[0174] like Figure 5 As shown, the energy-saving cost of the enterprise is reduced by 6.32% in the 8th scenario and by 20% in the 1st scenario; the comprehensive energy utilization rate is increased by 29.42% to 42.52%, indicating that this method can effectively improve the complementarity between different energy sources; the energy quality satisfaction is improved by 8.68% to 14.15%, thereby effectively improving the energy input and energy output ratio, indicating that the phenomenon of wind and solar power abandonment is significantly reduced. As a whole, it is shown that when the energy supply changes, the method described in this patent can track the energy changes and coordinate the energy supply of each equipment, thereby increasing the consumption of new energy and improving the degree of complementarity between different energy sources, thereby effectively reducing the production cost of A Steel Company. This patent adjusts the input relaxation value and output relaxation value of each energy of A Steel Company based on the double-layer intelligent body swarming control, and optimizes the energy consumption distribution of each equipment, thereby improving the efficiency value of the timing decision unit. Figure 5It can be seen that the input slack value is reduced by more than 64.78% to 75.39%, the output slack value is reduced by more than 32.53% to 62.87%, and the efficiency value of the timing decision unit is improved by 11.01% to 20.85, indicating that the patented method can improve the efficiency of the timing decision unit, reduce the energy input redundancy rate and the expected output shortage rate, and can flexibly adjust and expand energy according to the specific energy consumption characteristics and evaluation index requirements, and is explainable and operational, which can intuitively reflect the energy efficiency level and improvement space of the enterprise.
