Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy system optimization, and specifically relates to an optimization method and system for an integrated energy system taking into account solar thermal and energy storage. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Some areas are often at the end of the power grid due to ultra-high altitude, ultra-low temperature, sparse population and other reasons. The grid is fragile, the power supply reliability is low, and the power supply is unstable. The traditional power supply method is difficult to meet the growing energy demand, especially for high-load mineral resource development projects and industrial parks. Power outages are frequent, seriously affecting production and economic benefits. In addition, the traditional energy supply model relies on fossil energy, resulting in resource depletion, price fluctuations and environmental pollution, and can no longer meet the needs of sustainable development in these areas.

[0004] As a highly efficient renewable energy technology, CSP can make full use of the abundant solar energy resources in these areas and has obvious advantages. CSP can convert sunlight into heat energy and then into electricity, which can utilize solar energy on a large scale and provide relatively stable power output, which is very suitable for the energy needs of these areas.

[0005] However, due to the influence of day and night changes and weather factors, the power generation of CSP systems is unstable and prone to large power supply fluctuations, especially on cloudy days, cloud cover or at night, resulting in a significant drop in output power. Therefore, relying solely on CSP cannot meet the high requirements for power continuity and stability in these areas, especially when power demand fluctuates greatly or the load is high, the reliability of power supply is difficult to guarantee.

[0006] To solve this problem, energy storage technology is considered to be the key to balancing supply and demand fluctuations and ensuring stable power supply. Although traditional energy storage technology can alleviate the volatility of solar thermal power generation to a certain extent, in weak power grid areas, traditional energy storage systems face problems such as limited capacity, high cost, and short service life, making it difficult to cope with large-scale, long-term high-demand loads. Especially in these areas, electricity demand usually presents a continuous peak, and the capacity limitations of traditional battery energy storage make it impossible to provide sufficient energy storage capacity and effectively deal with power outages caused by unstable solar thermal power generation.

[0007] At the same time, existing energy system optimization methods usually assume that the grid structure is relatively complete, and fail to fully consider practical problems such as unstable grids, large load fluctuations, and uncertainty in renewable energy generation in weak-power areas. Most existing optimization models rely on a relatively stable grid environment, ignoring power fluctuations at the end of the grid, volatility in energy storage demand, and uncertainty in renewable energy generation. In summary, traditional optimization methods cannot effectively deal with the complex power system problems in these areas, and it is difficult to meet the high requirements for energy stability and reliability, making it more difficult to achieve efficient and stable energy supply in weak-power areas. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new integrated energy system and optimization framework to address the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0126] The method of the above embodiment can be applied to an integrated energy system for external heating demand in winter, by connecting the solar thermal power generation and energy storage system with the local gas boiler to ensure stable heating and power supply in the low temperature season. When the solar thermal power generation system and energy storage equipment cannot fully meet the demand, the gas boiler will serve as an auxiliary energy to supplement the heat source and provide stable power output for the power grid.

[0127] The method of the above embodiment can be applied to industrial waste heat recovery in steel plants. After the exhaust gas is cooled by the cooling system, it is converted into steam by the waste heat boiler to drive the generator to supply electricity. Solar thermal power generation stores heat energy through heat absorption towers and high-temperature storage tanks to supplement electricity to the power grid. The energy storage system recovers heat during the compression process and provides electricity to ensure stable operation of the power grid when the power demand is high. Through double-layer optimization, the best balance between system cost, operating efficiency and environmental protection is achieved.
