Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the growth of global demand for renewable energy, photovoltaic energy has been widely valued for its clean and renewable characteristics. However, with the increase in the number of photovoltaic power stations, its operation and maintenance are facing unprecedented challenges. At present, the operation and maintenance of photovoltaic power stations mainly have the following problems: First, the degree of digitization of photovoltaic power stations is generally low. Although some large photovoltaic power stations have been equipped with data acquisition equipment and can collect a certain degree of operation data, the utilization efficiency of these data is not high, and there is a lack of effective data analysis and processing mechanisms. How to convert massive amounts of data into valuable decision-making information for fault prediction and diagnosis is a major problem currently faced. Secondly, the traditional operation and maintenance of photovoltaic power stations is highly dependent on manual operation. The operation and maintenance personnel need to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the power station regularly to ensure that each component is working properly. This operation and maintenance mode not only consumes a lot of human resources, but also has low efficiency and is prone to misjudgment or missed detection, affecting the safe and stable operation of the power station. Furthermore, the real-time monitoring and rapid response capabilities of photovoltaic power stations are weak. Due to technical and human resource limitations, many photovoltaic power stations cannot achieve all-weather real-time monitoring. Once a fault occurs, it often takes a long time from discovery to processing, which not only reduces the power generation efficiency of the power station, but also may cause economic losses.

[0003] In view of the above problems, it is urgent to develop new technical means to improve the operation and maintenance efficiency and management level of photovoltaic power stations, especially to combine advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data (Big Data) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to develop a set of methods and systems that can achieve accurate prediction and energy management of distributed photovoltaic power.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary persons in the art without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] Example 1

[0048] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 As an embodiment of the present invention, a distributed photovoltaic power prediction and control method is provided, such as Figure 1 The specific steps shown include:

[0049] S100: Obtain inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of the photovoltaic power station, and perform preprocessing;

[0050] S200: input the preprocessed data into the neural network prediction model to make predictions and output the power generation prediction results, so as to realize the power prediction of distributed photovoltaic at different time scales;

[0051] S300: Based on the results of power prediction, combined with infrared drone inspections, fault diagnosis and early warning, and photovoltaic operation and maintenance inspection work order management, all-round control of photovoltaic power stations is achieved.

[0052] It should be noted that the present invention provides a distributed photovoltaic power prediction and control method and system, which realizes accurate prediction of distributed photovoltaic power at different time scales through data collection and storage, data quality control, mesoscale NWP and power prediction functions, and provides guarantee for safe and stable operation of power grid and high-quality power supply; and through the construction of intelligent photovoltaic operation and maintenance management platform, combined with infrared drone patrol, fault self-diagnosis system, and intelligent inspection work order management function module, realizes all-round standardized, digital and refined management of photovoltaic power station. The present invention conducts centralized monitoring and regional maintenance of photovoltaic power station, ensures safe and efficient operation of photovoltaic power station, and ultimately realizes the reduction of power station operation and maintenance costs and the increase of power station revenue, which is very necessary.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the above step S100 includes the following sub-steps A1-A3;

[0054] In A1: obtaining inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of the photovoltaic power station;

[0055] In A2: perform integrity and rationality checks on the acquired inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of the photovoltaic power station;

[0056] In A3: Data management is performed on the obtained inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of the photovoltaic power station based on the inspection results.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2 Sub-step A1 shown specifically includes: using the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to realize real-time collection and transmission of sensor data, real-time collection of inverter operation data, including inverter AC side power, AC side voltage, AC side current, DC side power, DC side voltage, and DC side current data; based on third-party high-precision meteorological services, developing a data extraction interface to obtain real-time weather forecast data for the next 72 hours at the location of the photovoltaic power station, including total solar irradiance, temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, air pressure, and visibility; the time resolution is 15 minutes. Distributed Mongo database cluster technology is used to store inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of photovoltaic power stations, and all real-time collected data retains the original data and is backed up.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, sub-step A2 specifically includes: developing a data quality assessment model based on the acquired inverter operation data and future weather forecast data of the photovoltaic power station, using isolation forest and statistical methods to perform integrity and rationality checks on the data, wherein the integrity check should meet the requirements of data quantity integrity, data compliance with the start and end time ranges, and time continuity, and the rationality check should meet the limit checks on the power generation power and meteorological data (humidity, wind speed, irradiance);

[0059] In an optional embodiment, sub-step A3 specifically includes: developing a data governance model based on the inspection results, smoothing and correcting the sensor data, and processing missing values ​​and outliers;

[0060] The processing methods and requirements include: for missing and abnormal power data, the power data of the previous moment is used to complete it; for power data less than 0, it is uniformly replaced by 0; for missing or abnormal meteorological data, other meteorological elements are used to correct it according to linear interpolation; all corrected data will be recorded with special marks; all missing and abnormal data can be supplemented or corrected manually.

[0061] It should be noted that the above step S100 not only ensures the accuracy and completeness of the data, but also improves the quality of the data by removing missing values ​​and outliers, so that the neural network prediction model can learn and predict the power generation more accurately, thereby achieving accurate prediction of distributed photovoltaics at different time scales. In addition, the preprocessing step can also integrate multi-source data, enhance the generalization ability of the model, enable it to better adapt to various complex environmental conditions, and provide reliable data support for the efficient management and safe operation of photovoltaic power stations.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the above step S200 inputs the preprocessed data into the neural network prediction model for prediction and outputs the power generation prediction result, and realizes the power prediction of distributed photovoltaic at different time scales, including:

[0063] A neural network prediction model is built based on the pytorch algorithm framework, and the preprocessed data is used to train the neural network prediction model. The neural network prediction model includes a photovoltaic short-term prediction model and a photovoltaic ultra-short-term prediction model.

[0064] Specifically, the input of the photovoltaic short-term prediction model is the characteristic data of temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure, visibility, and total solar irradiance in the next 24 hours, with a time resolution of 15 minutes. The output is the power generation per installed capacity in the next 24 hours. The power generation prediction result for the day is calculated based on the total installed capacity, planned maintenance capacity, and planned startup capacity of the power station on that day.

[0065] Specifically, the input of the photovoltaic ultra-short-term prediction model is the characteristic data of temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure, visibility, and total solar irradiance in the next 4 hours and the temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure, visibility, total solar irradiance data at the current moment, as well as the power generation data per unit installed capacity at the current moment. The time resolution is 15 minutes, and the output is the power data per unit installed capacity in the next 4 hours. The power generation forecast result for the next 4 hours is calculated based on the actual startup capacity counted at the current moment.

[0066] It should be noted that the above step S200 can not only make full use of historical data and real-time data to improve the accuracy and reliability of prediction, but also flexibly adjust the prediction model according to the needs of different time scales, provide a scientific basis for the scheduling and operation of photovoltaic power stations, and effectively improve the power generation efficiency and economic benefits of the power station. At the same time, the learning ability of the neural network model can continuously optimize the prediction accuracy, adapt to changes in the power station operating environment, and ensure long-term stable performance.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the above step S300 realizes all-round control of the photovoltaic power station based on the result of power prediction, combined with infrared drone inspection, fault diagnosis and early warning, and photovoltaic operation and maintenance inspection work order management, specifically including:

[0068] In an optional embodiment, the infrared drone inspection includes: processing thermal infrared images and visible light images, and fusing the processed images using multimodal image fusion technology; automatically identifying abnormalities in the fused images using a deep learning-based anomaly detection algorithm, and migrating a pre-trained neural network model to the infrared drone inspection task using transfer learning technology; and automatically triggering a corresponding alarm method according to the severity and urgency of the abnormal situation;

[0069] Specifically, the processing and analysis of infrared images includes: using infrared image preprocessing technology to reduce image noise; applying the infrared image segmentation algorithm based on region growing to segment the image into different regions; using the YOLO algorithm to automatically detect and identify abnormal components in the image;

[0070] Specifically, the processing and analysis of visible light images includes: using edge detection algorithms (such as Canny edge detection) and image processing technology to extract features in the image; using machine learning algorithms to train models for target detection and classification; and applying deep learning technology to improve the anomaly detection performance of visible light images.

[0071] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown in the figure, multimodal image fusion technology is used to fuse the processed images into a single image, and the anomaly detection algorithm based on deep learning automatically identifies anomalies in the fused image. The transfer learning technology is used to migrate the pre-trained neural network model to the infrared UAV inspection task to improve the generalization ability and detection accuracy of the model; an intelligent alarm system is designed to automatically trigger the corresponding alarm method according to the severity and urgency of the abnormal situation, such as sound, light flash, text message or mobile phone App push.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 4 The fault diagnosis warnings shown include:

[0073] The discrete rate can be used to evaluate the consistency of the power generation performance of the power generation unit and the consistency of the string current. The discrete rate calculation formula is: discrete rate = standard deviation of string data / average value of string data * 100%; since the original data may be missing, abnormal negative values, abnormal mutations, etc., big data means are used to extract, complete, and handle abnormalities of the original data, and weight it according to the string capacity to avoid inaccurate data calculation due to capacity imbalance.

[0074] Input the processed data into the formula to calculate the discrete rate; according to the experience of photovoltaic power station production and operation and the requirements of GB50794-2012 photovoltaic power station construction specification, the range of the discrete rate of the combiner box string current can be divided into the following four levels:

[0075] ① If the discrete rate of the combiner box string current is within the range of 0-5%, it means that the combiner box branch current is stable. ② If the discrete rate of the combiner box string current is within the range of 5%-10%, it means that the combiner box branch current is operating well. ③ If the discrete rate of the combiner box string current is within the range of 10%-20%, it means that the operation of the combiner box branch current needs to be improved. ④ If the discrete rate of the combiner box branch current exceeds 20%, it means that the operation of the combiner box branch current is poor, affecting the power generation of the power station, and rectification must be carried out.

[0076] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown in the figure, big data is used to extract, complete, and handle exceptions of the inverter raw data, and to calculate the inverter conversion efficiency, average power generation time and other indicators. Combined with NWP weather data, the data and indicators are analyzed and screened, and the inverter health diagnosis model is trained based on the CNN artificial neural network algorithm. The model parameters are tuned through cross-validation and other means to improve the prediction performance. Periodic health diagnosis of the inverter equipment can be carried out to detect problems and hidden dangers of the inverter equipment in advance.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, the photovoltaic operation and maintenance inspection work order management includes: ① Online inspection work order management, first of all, the operation and maintenance engineers must be managed online, and the organizational structure of the photovoltaic power station operation and maintenance team must be managed through background entry and mobile APP registration application, including personnel information, role authority allocation, etc., so as to clearly grasp the work status and work efficiency of team members and achieve optimal allocation of human resources. ② Since operation and maintenance is actually the operation and maintenance of equipment, it is necessary to manage the entire life cycle of all equipment and facilities in the photovoltaic power station, including basic equipment information entry, operation status monitoring, maintenance and repair records, depreciation and scrap management, etc. By updating and tracking asset status in real time, data support is provided for operation and maintenance decisions. ③ It is possible to create, distribute, track and complete various types of operation and maintenance task work orders online, which may include inspection work orders, defect elimination work orders, alarm elimination work orders, and emergency repair work orders. At the same time, the system can also automatically trigger work orders according to preset rules to improve the operation and maintenance response speed and processing efficiency. Work orders can be pushed online in real time to achieve targeted and accurate distribution. Operation and maintenance personnel can receive work order notifications, view work order contents, and provide online work order submission and review through mobile APP. ④ Operation and maintenance personnel can use the operation and maintenance mobile APP to receive and push work orders, view work orders, sign in for tasks, and submit tasks. Inspection work orders can report defects, which greatly improves the efficiency of operation and maintenance management and reduces the turnover cost of operation and maintenance personnel.

[0078] It should be noted that the above step S300 can timely discover and handle equipment failures, improve the operational stability and safety of the power station, and optimize the dispatching and operation strategies of the power station through accurate power prediction, thereby improving power generation efficiency and economic benefits. In addition, the introduction of the work order management system makes the operation and maintenance work more standardized and efficient, reduces human errors, ensures the timeliness and accuracy of the operation and maintenance work, and comprehensively improves the management level of the photovoltaic power station.
