BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a virtual power plant aggregation method that takes into account the spatiotemporal coupling characteristics in an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are illustrative and are intended to provide further explanation of the present application. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in the present invention have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application.

[0024] Terminology explanation: "Aggregation parameters": matrix control variable parameter matrix and the vector of the constrained constants elements.

[0025] "Feasible domain" refers to the dynamic boundary range within which the distributed resources aggregated by the virtual power plant can respond safely, reliably and economically to grid dispatch or market demand under specific operating conditions. It is a set of feasible operations within a multi-dimensional constraint space formed by mathematizing the physical constraints, response characteristics and collaborative capabilities of distributed resources.

[0026] Power-energy characteristic: represents the functional relationship between power and energy.

[0027] Embodiment 1 In one or more embodiments, a virtual power plant aggregation method considering the spatiotemporal coupling characteristics is disclosed, combined with Figure 1 , specifically including the following process: S101: Select a single network node in the virtual power plant area; select a single type of distributed resource connected to the node, and based on the linear constraints of the distributed resources independently participating in the optimal scheduling of the distribution network, obtain a control variable parameter matrix and a vector composed of constraint constants.

[0028] In this embodiment, the virtual power plant aggregated distributed resources considered mainly include air conditioning loads, distributed energy storage, distributed photovoltaics, micro-turbines, etc. The linear constraints of each type of distributed resource independently participating in the optimal dispatch of the distribution network constitute the physical model of its own original feasible domain. The basic mathematical form is as follows: (1) in, is the original feasible domain of distributed resources; It is a vector of decision variables, generally the unit output or load; is the control variable parameter matrix, A vector of constants for the constraints; express N dimensional real vector space, which represents the time dimension in the following.

[0029] The specific distributed resources are as follows: (1) Air conditioning load For the establishment of a single air conditioning load model, the first-order equivalent thermal parameter model is often used to describe the thermal dynamic process inside and outside the room. The model is: (2) (3) in, is the indoor temperature, is the outdoor temperature; is the cooling capacity of the air conditioner; and are thermodynamic parameters, namely the thermal resistance of the indoor room and the heat capacity of the indoor air; is the working efficiency parameter of the air conditioner; is the electric power of the air conditioner. According to formula (2), the dynamic electrical model of the air conditioner is derived as follows: (4) (5) (6) in, for t Indoor temperature during the period; and They are the upper and lower limits of the comfortable temperature in the room; for t Outdoor temperature during the period; for t Electric power of time-slot air conditioner; is the maximum power of the air conditioner; is the decision time step.

[0030] In the process of aggregation and regulation of air conditioning as a flexible resource, since the thermodynamic parameters, efficiency, outdoor temperature, etc. of individual rooms are taken as constants, let , , formula (4) can be simplified as: (7) (2) Distributed energy storage The constraints of distributed energy storage include power constraints and state of charge (SOC) operation constraints. The model is: (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) in, and They are t Discharging and charging power of energy storage at all times; for t The charge and discharge state variable of the energy storage at each moment, 1 for discharge and 0 for charge; and are the maximum charging and discharging power of energy storage respectively; for t The state of charge of the energy storage at all times; The charging and discharging efficiency of energy storage; and They are the minimum and maximum charge states of energy storage respectively; The initial charge state of the energy storage during the dispatch cycle; It is the charge state of the energy storage at the end of the dispatch cycle.

[0031] It is the power of the energy storage at time t. When it is a positive number, it indicates discharge, and when it is a negative number, it indicates charging.

[0032] (3) Micro-turbine The micro gas turbine only considers its output limitation and climbing limitation.

[0033] (13) (14) in, for t The output of the micro-turbine in the time period, for t The running status of the generator at the moment, 1 means running, 0 means shut down; and are the maximum and minimum output of the generator respectively; and They are respectively the maximum upward and downward climbing capabilities of the generator in a single period.

[0034] (4) Distributed photovoltaic (15) (16) in, for t The active power output of distributed photovoltaic at all times, represents the expected value of photovoltaic output, is the maximum output active power of distributed photovoltaics; is a random variable, indicating the uncertainty of distributed photovoltaic output.

[0035] Since the optimization model cannot directly handle constraints containing random variables, this embodiment uses chance constraints to transform constraints containing random variables into deterministic constraints. According to empirical results, the prediction error of distributed photovoltaic output can be well modeled using parameterized normal distribution, that is, random variables ,in for t The covariance matrix of the distributed photovoltaic prediction error at the moment. Therefore, the operation constraints (15) (16) containing random variables can be expressed in the form of chance constraints: (17) in, Indicates the risk level of unit overload, usually a smaller value (such as 5%) is selected.

[0036] Since the chance constraint formula (17) cannot be solved directly, this embodiment uses the moment information of the random variable to transform the chance constraint into a processable linear constraint to facilitate the solution of the model. The specific derivation process is as follows: Formula (17) can be transformed into the following form: (18) set up ,in satisfy , According to the one-sided Chebyshev inequality principle, we can get: (19) (20) The infimum calculation depends on , which is equivalent to the square of the distance from the origin of the hyperplane. for: (twenty one) Then we can get: (twenty two) in, .

[0037] Through the above processing, the complex probabilistic optimization problem can be simplified into a convex optimization model that can be efficiently solved, thereby improving the efficiency.

[0038] In summary, the modeling of the internal resources of the virtual power plant includes constraints (5)~(14) and (22), which respectively constitute the high-dimensional expression of the feasible domain of various types of resources aggregated by the virtual power plant.

[0039] All the above-mentioned resources can be expressed in mathematical form as formula (1).

[0040] S102: Based on the Chino polyhedron approximation principle, a search direction set is selected according to the power-energy characteristics of the distributed resource at different time sequences.

[0041] This embodiment is based on the Chino polyhedron approximation principle and proposes a Chino polyhedron aggregation method for time-series coupled direction search. The basic model is as follows: (twenty three) (twenty four) (25) (26) in, are the coordinates of the center point of the polyhedron; is the search direction matrix, M Direction vector Composition, which means that the polyhedron extends in all directions from the center point; is the extension length vector in each direction, which is composed of the maximum extension length limit; represents the 2-norm operation; is the i-th direction vector, is the Mth extension length vector.

[0042] For selecting the same search direction matrix Since the extension directions of the Chino polyhedra are consistent, the Minkowski sum process of these Chino polyhedra can be simplified to the XOR operation between each Chino polyhedron: (27) (28) in, The number of distributed resource entities on a certain node; is the coordinate of the center point of the aggregated polyhedron; is the coordinate of the sth center point; and For the aggregate polyhedron m The sum of the total extension length and the extension length limit in each search direction, and Before aggregation s The polyhedron in m The sum of the extension length and the extension length limit in each search direction.

[0043] By selecting different search directions, the Minkowski sum process of the polyhedron is transformed into a simple linear superposition, which provides the feasibility for the aggregation of feasible domains in high-dimensional space of massive multivariate distributed resources.

[0044] Faced with the construction of various distributed resource feasible domain models, the selection of the extension direction matrix is ​​crucial to the accuracy of using the Qino polyhedron to approximate the original feasible domain of the resource.

[0045] When constructing the search direction vector, this embodiment extracts the coupling and complementary characteristics of power-energy of various types of resources on a time scale based on the natural properties and regulatory elasticity of the internal resources of the virtual power plant, fully taps the spatiotemporal synergy potential of multiple types of resources in the virtual power plant, and enhances the robustness and economy of the virtual power plant in dealing with complex working conditions.

[0046] (1) Basic timing constraints It includes 2N search directions, each of which represents the power operation boundary of the common coupling point at a certain moment, and is used to approximate the extension direction of the aggregated resources at each decision moment: (29) in, is the Kronecker symbol, when i=j 1 if the value is 0, otherwise it is 0. (2) Time coupling constraints It includes N-1 search directions, each of which can represent the difference between the power of the next time period and the current time period, and is used to approximate the extension direction of the power-time coupling constraint of the aggregated resources: (30) (3) Power-energy coupling constraints It includes N-1 search directions, representing the sum of energy changes in a certain time period, and is expressed as the sum of power values ​​over a certain period of time, which is used to approximate the extension direction of the power-energy coupling constraint of the aggregated resources: (31) For temperature control load constraints such as air conditioning (7), the energy change is not the sum of the power work done in each period. When the power is 0, there is also a linear relationship between the energy variables at adjacent moments. Its mathematical expression is: (32) (33) in, is the energy variable in period t, is the power variable in period t, is the external influencing parameter in period t, and All are proportional parameters.

[0047] According to formula (33), the general form of the power-energy coupling constraint search direction vector can be obtained , specifically expressed as follows: (34) in, , , are all search direction sets, i and j represent the rows and columns in the matrix, N represents the matrix dimension, and h is the introduced auxiliary variable.

[0048] It should be noted that N is determined by the time scale considered by the model. If 1 hour is considered as the decision step, N is 24, and if 15 minutes is considered, N is 96.

[0049] In summary, we can get the search direction matrix of each type of resource, among which the search direction matrix of air conditioning load and distributed energy storage is and The distributed photovoltaic search direction matrix is ​​composed of The micro-turbine search direction matrix is ​​composed of and By constructing a search direction matrix for various resources, the coupling problem of time and space can be solved.

[0050] S103: Taking maximizing the sum of the extension lengths in each dimensional direction as the optimization goal, an optimal linear decision model for aggregation parameters is established; the model is solved to obtain an optimal Chino polyhedron approximate feasible domain.

[0051] For each resource type, the calculated Chino polyhedron Z and the original feasible domain space P All high-dimensional spaces are generated from the same data source. In order to make the calculated approximate Chino polyhedron as close to the original feasible domain as possible, this embodiment adopts a high-dimensional space generation method based on the Farkas condition, and solves the linear programming (LP) problem corresponding to the method to achieve the solution of the optimal aggregation parameters.

[0052] The specific process is as follows: The definition of the Chino polyhedron is that formula (23) can be rewritten as: (33) in, and is an auxiliary variable, which represents the transformed decision coefficient, as follows: (34) in, for dimensional identity matrix.

[0053] In order to , Z The coordinates of any point in x Satisfy the original feasible region P Each constraint , i for P According to the Farkas lemma, there exists a non-negative Farkas multiplier ,make P and Z Satisfy the coefficient matching conditions and right-hand side constraints: (35) (36) Substituting formula (34) into the equation, we get No. j Dimensions: (37) (38) Then we can sort it out: (39) In order to make the calculated approximate Chino polyhedron as close to the original feasible domain as possible, the objective function is set to maximize the sum of the extension lengths in each dimensional direction. .

[0054] In summary, the optimal linear decision model for aggregation parameters is summarized as follows: (40) Where L is the sum of the extension lengths in each dimension, , is the maximum extension length vector in each dimension, is a column vector, each dimension has its own maximum extension length; is the search direction matrix; are the coordinates of the center point of the polyhedron; is a non-negative Farkas multiplier, is the control variable parameter matrix, is a vector of constrained constants, is the original feasible domain of distributed resources, i for P Identification of the constraints in It is j non-negative Farkas multipliers in dimensions, It is the Nth+ j non-negative Farkas multipliers in dimensions, is the control variable parameter matrix j dimensions, is the coordinate of the center point of the polyhedron j dimensions.

[0055] The optimal aggregation parameters are solved by solving the linear programming (LP) problem corresponding to the optimal linear decision model of the aggregation parameters.

[0056] By solving the problem, we can get the optimal center point coordinates of the aggregated polyhedron. , and the total extension length of the aggregated polyhedron in each search direction , aggregate polyhedron m The sum of the extension length limits in the search directions , thus obtaining the optimal Qino polyhedron approximate feasible domain.

[0057] This embodiment establishes an optimal linear decision model for aggregation parameters, and obtains the optimal Chino polyhedron approximate feasible domain through model solution, thereby achieving accurate and efficient solution of the feasible domain of aggregation resources. S104: Calculate the optimal Chino polyhedron approximate feasible domain of each type of resource at the node; perform Minkowski summation to form the Chino polyhedron approximate aggregate feasible domain of each type of resource at the node.

[0058] The same method as in S101-S103 is used to calculate the optimal Chino polyhedron approximate feasible domain of other types of distributed resources of the node; the optimal Chino polyhedron approximate feasible domain of all distributed resources is Minkowski summed to form the Chino polyhedron approximate aggregate feasible domain of each type of resource of the node.

[0059] The method of this embodiment transforms the process of feasible domain aggregation into a simple superposition in several directions, which solves the problem of difficulty in solving the Minkowski sum of polyhedrons and provides feasibility for feasible domain aggregation in high-dimensional space of massive multi-distributed resources.

[0060] S105: Characterization of the output boundary of the common coupling point of the virtual power plant considering the spatial coupling characteristics.

[0061] The external aggregation characteristics of the virtual power plant should project the high-dimensional model with high coupling characteristics as the external power characteristics of the point of common coupling (PCC). However, the approximate feasible domain obtained by the above process ignores the impact of the network space constraints of the distribution system where the virtual power plant is located. In fact, the network flow will produce a large deviation in the calculation of the feasible domain of the common coupling point of the virtual power plant. Therefore, this embodiment, based on the optimal feasible domain obtained by the above solution, considers the spatial coupling characteristics of the virtual power plant and corrects the aggregation feasible domain.

[0062] 1. Constraints (1) Constraints on equivalent adjustable output of internal resources The output upper and lower limits of the virtual power plant's internal air conditioning load, distributed photovoltaics, energy storage, micro-turbines and other resources are calculated. The boundaries are: (41) For nodes n At , the feasible domain of the Chino polyhedron approximation is expressed as follows: (42) in," " represents the parameters corresponding to any type of resources in the virtual power plant, including air conditioning load, distributed photovoltaic, energy storage, and micro-turbines; represents the power of the center point of the feasible region of a certain type of resource, Indicates the extension length of the feasible domain of this type of resource, Indicates the operating power of this type of resource; is the extended length, The upper limit of the extension length.

[0063] (2) Participation factor constraints The external power of PCC is distributed among various types of resource units at each node according to the participation factors. Since the power adjusted by the units needs to match the external power of PCC, the sum of the participation factors is 1.

[0069] 2. Objective Function The goal of this embodiment is to maximize the volume of the feasible domain of the virtual power plant at the common coupling point o in the distribution system. In order to avoid the nonlinear problem caused by the volume formula of the hyperpolyhedron, the objective function adopts the maximum sum of the lengths of the maximum extension intervals of the feasible domain of the common coupling point, which approximately replaces the objective function form of maximizing the volume of the feasible domain in high-dimensional space.

[0070] (54) in, and Point of Common Coupling o The lower and upper limits of the maximum extension of the feasible domain; t refers to a certain time period, and N refers to the number of decision moments for day-ahead scheduling (when one decision moment is one hour, N is 24).

[0071] 3. Model Linearization Formulas (44) and (47) in the above model are nonlinear constraints. This embodiment uses the McCormick envelope method and the inscribed circle linearization method to linearize these two sets of constraints respectively.

[0072] The constraint condition of formula (44) contains bilinear variables, and the bilinear terms are all continuous variables, so the big M method cannot be directly applied to achieve linear processing. It is proposed to relax the constraint (44) by constructing the McCormick envelope. However, the bilinear quantity and There are no physical upper and lower limits, so the McCormick envelope method cannot be directly applied. and The relaxation boundary of .
