Description

Technical Field

[0002] Energy cascade utilization can be reasonably matched according to the quality and quality of energy, avoiding the waste of high-quality energy, and can better play the advantages of efficient and clean energy supply in the integrated energy system. However, the existing technology mainly focuses on the cascade utilization of cold energy. For example, Chinese patent document CN215638193U records the scheduling method of liquefied natural gas cold energy cascade utilization participating in the integrated energy system. Regarding the supply of thermal energy, no fine distinction is made, resulting in low energy utilization efficiency of the system and a serious problem of energy waste.

[0003] In energy market transactions, different energy prices affect the trading strategies of different entities. Master-slave game, as a mechanism to describe the participation of multiple entities in market transactions, can optimize the benefits of each entity according to the decision-making strategies of different entities. However, most existing studies focus on the interactive behaviors among multiple entities. For example, "Distributed Collaborative Optimization Operation Strategy of Community Integrated Energy System Based on Master-slave Game" analyzes the energy trading process of multiple entities in the community integrated energy system, but does not conduct in-depth research on the impact of changes in the internal strategies of a single entity, which is not conducive to optimizing market resource allocation and energy conservation and emission reduction potential. Therefore, studying the master-slave game optimization operation method of regional integrated energy system with energy cascade utilization is of great significance to improving energy utilization efficiency and accelerating the construction of a modern energy market.

The optimization goal is to maximize the profit. The objective function can be expressed as: ; Where: To earn revenue from the sale of energy to system operators; for the cost of fuel; Operation and maintenance costs of energy production equipment; The cost of wind curtailment; is the abandoned light cost; the expressions of each item are: ; Where: ; , The electrical and thermal power exported to energy suppliers; , The electricity and heat purchase prices issued by operators; , , , is the cost coefficient; For equipment The unit output power operation and maintenance price; For equipment exist Output power at the moment; , The unit price of abandoned wind and solar power; , The abandoned wind and solar power.

In addition, the shiftable electric load and the reducible medium-temperature heat load must also meet the following constraints: ; Where: , It can shift the electrical load and reduce the upper limit of the medium temperature heat load.

[0023] The constraints are as follows: Price constraints: To ensure that the problem is established, the price set by the operator should meet the following constraints: ; Where: Indicates 24 hours a day; , The minimum and maximum prices for thermal energy; is the average electricity selling price; is the average hot selling price; Power Constraints: For the system to operate normally, it is necessary to balance the supply and demand of electricity, heat and cooling, that is, to meet the following constraints: ; Where: is the cooling load power.

[0024] Master-slave game equilibrium The optimal output and actual load demand set by energy suppliers and load aggregators are based on the prices set by operators. When setting prices, operators must also fully consider the optimal strategies of energy suppliers and load aggregators. Therefore, the master-slave game model has a Nash equilibrium solution; the master-slave game model can be expressed as: ; The model covers the three elements of the game: game subjects, decision variables and benefit functions; among them, the game subjects are mainly operators, energy suppliers and load aggregators; the decision variables are the purchase and sale prices of electricity and heat set by the operators. , the electric heating power output by the energy supplier , the load aggregator can transfer the electric load and reduce the medium temperature heat load in each period ; The benefit function is the objective function of each subject; Based on the electricity and heat prices issued by the leader, the followers make the best strategy and are accepted by the leader.

[0025] Model solving and simulation analysis Model solving and parameter setting According to the objective function of each subject involved in the game, the article model uses genetic algorithm combined with quadratic programming to solve the constructed model. Among them, the upper-level operator strategy is solved by genetic algorithm, and the lower-level energy supplier and load aggregator strategy is solved by quadratic programming. The constructed model is solved by simulation using the CPLEX solver on the MATLAB platform.

[0026] The example takes the regional integrated energy system as the research object, optimizes and solves it in units of one day, and verifies the efficiency improvement and feasibility of the proposed scheme on the system. The actual typical daily data of a certain area in northern winter are selected, and the load side electrical load, steam heat load, high temperature heat load, medium temperature heat load, and cooling load are as follows: Figure 3 shown.

[0027] Simulation Results Analysis In order to compare and analyze the improvement of system benefits by cascade utilization and demand response, four examples are set for comparative analysis. The specific scenarios are as follows: Scenario 1: Without considering the cascade utilization link and load-side demand response, all heat loads are uniformly converted into medium-temperature heat loads, and peak heaters, absorption chillers and absorption heat pumps are disabled.

[0028] Scenario 2: Without considering the cascade utilization link, but taking demand response into consideration, all heat loads are uniformly converted into medium-temperature heat loads, and peak heaters, absorption chillers and absorption heat pumps are disabled.

[0029] Scenario 3: Considering the cascade utilization link, but not considering demand response.

[0030] Scenario 4: Consider cascade utilization and demand response.

[0031] The operation results of the above four scenarios are shown in Table 1. Compared with scenario 1 and scenario 2, scenario 2 takes demand response into account at the user end, prompting the user to reduce the thermal load, thereby reducing the energy required by the entire system. From the perspective of the benefits of the various entities participating in the market transaction, the operator's revenue increased by 217.18 yuan, the revenue of the energy supplier and load aggregator increased slightly, and the energy supplier saved 260.36m³ of gas. The energy utilization efficiency formula can be used to calculate that the energy utilization efficiency of scenario 2 is 2.178% higher than that of scenario 1. Considering demand response on the load side can promote energy coupling within the system, thereby improving energy efficiency.

[0032] Table 1 Operation results in four scenarios

[0033] Comparing Scenario 1 and Scenario 3, Scenario 3 takes into account the tiered supply of thermal energy on the basis of Scenario 1. This link can accurately meet the user's demand for thermal energy of different grades. The graded supply of thermal energy can reduce energy waste, thereby reducing the energy required for the entire system. Compared with Scenario 1, the income of each subject in Scenario 3 has been greatly improved. Among them, the income of the operator increased by 628.11 yuan, the income of the energy supplier increased by 859.192 yuan, and the income of the load aggregator increased by 132.54 yuan. Compared with Scenario 1, the energy supplier in Scenario 3 saved 600.532m³ of gas, and the reduction in gas volume led to a significant increase in the income of the energy supplier. In Scenario 3, which adds a tiered thermal energy supply link, the energy utilization efficiency of the entire system is improved by 11.36%. Accurately matching load demand can reduce the energy required by the system and greatly improve the energy utilization efficiency of the system.

[0034] Compared with Scenario 1, Scenario 4 increased the operator's revenue by 783.19 yuan, the energy supplier's revenue by 954.112 yuan, and the load aggregator's revenue by 183.18 yuan. Scenario 4 takes into account the hierarchical supply of thermal energy and demand response, and the energy required by the system is greatly reduced, which is reflected in the reduction of 814.565 m³ of gas required by the energy supplier, and the energy utilization efficiency is improved by 13.774% compared with Scenario 1. Scenario 2 compared with Scenario 1, and Scenario 4 compared with Scenario 3, both introduce demand response on the load side. Although demand response reduces the energy required by the system, considering that energy suppliers will absorb more wind and solar power to increase their own profits, thereby reducing fuel costs, the cost of abandoning wind and solar power has decreased compared with Scenario 4 and Scenario 3, and compared with Scenario 2 and Scenario 1.

[0035] Taking into account scenarios 2 and 3, the thermal energy hierarchical supply considered in scenario 3 can significantly reduce the energy required by the system compared to the demand response considered in scenario 2, and improve the overall benefits of the system more significantly, as shown by an increase of 410.93 yuan in operator revenue, 813.79 yuan in energy supplier revenue, a slight increase in load aggregator revenue, a 9.182% increase in system energy efficiency, and a 340.172 m³ reduction in supplier gas consumption. The significant reduction in the energy required by the system in scenario 3 reduces the amount of wind and solar power absorbed by the system, that is, the cost of abandoning wind and solar power increases.

[0036] Scheduling results analysis In order to further verify the feasibility of the model built in this article, the operation results of scenario 4 are analyzed. Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2, at the 40th time, the game equilibrium has been reached. When the game reaches equilibrium, the price curves for purchasing, selling electricity and heating set by the operator are as follows: Figure 5 shown.

[0037] The load side considers the load curve before and after demand response. Figure 6 As shown, the medium temperature heat load curve is as follows Figure 7 As shown. For the electric load, the load is increased during valley hours (0.00-4.00, 13.00-18.00), and the load is reduced during peak hours (5.00-11.00, 23.00-24.00). After optimization, the electric load can better achieve peak shaving and valley filling to ensure stable operation of the system. For medium-temperature thermal load, by reducing the thermal load at each moment, the energy required by the system can be reduced, and the energy utilization efficiency of the system can be improved while promoting the consumption of wind and solar energy. At the peak of wind and solar energy, the load side increases the load through demand response, and the excess wind and solar energy meet the supply and demand balance of the system by abandoning wind and solar energy. The actual wind and solar output and the abandonment of wind and solar energy on a typical day are shown as follows Figure 8 shown.

[0038] The supply and demand relationship of electricity and heat power is as follows Fig. 9 As shown by Fig. 9 As can be seen from the left, the system supplies electricity through wind power, photovoltaic power consumption, and gas turbine equipment, and consumes electricity through electric heating, electric cooling, and power load. When electricity is in oversupply, the system stores part of the electricity through power storage equipment, which improves the system's regulation ability, and sells the remaining part to the power grid to obtain revenue. When electricity is in short supply, the power storage equipment releases electric power to meet demand, and the shortfall is balanced by purchasing electricity from the power grid; Fig. 9 As can be seen from the right, the gas turbine generates heat while generating electricity, and the shortfall is made up by the output of the gas boiler. The heat demand includes the heat required by the steam heat load, peak heater, absorption heat pump, and absorption chiller. The introduction of heat storage equipment can adjust the thermal power balance of the system, thereby improving the flexibility of the system.
