Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of virtual power plant scheduling, and in particular to a virtual power plant scheduling method, system, medium, and device based on a cloud-edge-end architecture. Background Art

[0002] With the increase in the proportion of renewable energy, the volatility and randomness problems of high-proportion renewable energy output pose key challenges to the stable operation of the power system. At the same time, energy storage devices, flexible loads, and distributed energy power plants at the distribution network level exacerbate the uncertainty of power consumption on the demand side. Power scheduling is an important tool for improving the integration of renewable energy into the grid and the stable operation of the power system. To more effectively adapt to renewable energy, the concept of a virtual power plant has been proposed, whose main function is to participate in grid scheduling as a whole.

[0003] Traditional virtual power plant economic scheduling problems are usually solved using a centralized control framework. The characteristic of the centralized algorithm is that it includes a central controller that collects information from all sensors and performs calculations, and then feeds back corresponding commands to each local actuator. The centralized algorithm is easy to implement and convenient to control, but there are still some problems: (1) The control center controls the entire virtual power plant. Once a failure occurs, it will cause the control of the entire system to fail, which not only poses a major hidden danger to the stable operation of the virtual power plant but also has low system reliability. (2) As the number of distributed energy sources increases, the information that the control center needs to collect and process gradually increases, resulting in a significant reduction in the operating efficiency of the microgrid. At the same time, the gradual increase in two-way communication links leads to a high construction cost of the communication network. (3) The centralized algorithm needs to collect information from all units, resulting in less privacy for individual entities. Summary of the Invention

As a traditional power generation system, this type of unit converts chemical energy into electrical energy by burning fossil fuels. The new power system needs to rely on small - scale thermal power units to maintain the flexibility and stability of the system.

[0072]

[0073] Among them, represents the cost function of the i - th power generation equipment, Represents the power of the i-th power generation device, Represents the different cost coefficients of the i-th power generation device. Since the actual cost function is obtained by curve fitting based on data obtained from thermal efficiency tests or power plant design engineers, a non-quadratic function can be used to obtain a better fitting effect.

[0074] (2) Energy storage device

[0075] Battery energy storage is an important energy storage technology. It realizes the storage and output of the battery by using the conversion between electrical energy and chemical energy, and has the advantages of strong environmental adaptability, short construction period, and convenient small-scale configuration. The charge and discharge states of the battery energy storage system must be limited within a certain range to avoid overcharging or over-discharging.

[0090]

[0091] Among them, P l represents the constant load, and nw, ns, and nu respectively represent the numbers of power generation equipment, energy storage equipment, and loads.

[0092] S4. According to the equipment model of the virtual power plant, set the optimization objective to minimize the overall expected operating cost while meeting the supply-demand balance and power limits of each equipment.

[0093] The optimization objective function is:

[0094]

[0095] Among them, τ represents time, with the unit of 1 hour, and T sum represents the total time. The cost functions of the equipment in the virtual power plant: The cost function of the power generation equipment The cost function of the load The cost function of the energy storage equipment is related to the power of the equipment (the power per hour), so the cost function is also the cost per hour. When calculating the total operating cost, it is necessary to calculate the operating cost for the total time.

[0096] The following power constraints should be met:

[0097]

[0098] Among them, and respectively represent the minimum powers of the power generation equipment, energy storage equipment, and load, and respectively represent the maximum power of the power generation equipment, energy storage equipment, and load.

[0099] S5. According to the optimization objective, based on the cloud-edge-end collaborative architecture of the multi-agent system, use the fixed-time consensus optimization algorithm for virtual power plant scheduling.

[0100] Based on the fixed-time consensus optimization algorithm, the optimization problem is described as:

[0101]

[0102] where f(x,τ) represents the total cost of all devices at time τ, and x i represents the power generation of the i-th device, N represents the number of devices, and d i represents the power of the i-th load, and Ω represents the set of linear inequality constraints.

[0103] Based on the fixed-time consensus optimization algorithm, the distributed algorithm for each agent is described as:

[0107] 1. Input the topological structure and predicted load value, and set the iteration number k = 0;

[0108] 2. Update the consensus variables of the agents by exchanging the gradients of the agents;

[0109] 3. Calculate the updated value x of each agent i (k + 1);

[0110] 4. Calculate the power deviation

[0111] 5. If the active power deviation value meets the requirements, the iteration ends. If not, set the iteration number k = k + 1 and repeat the above steps.

[0118] Embodiment 3: In an exemplary embodiment, it includes a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, it implements the above-mentioned virtual power plant scheduling method based on the cloud-edge-end architecture.

[0119] Embodiment 4: Please refer to Figure 4 , in an exemplary embodiment, it also includes an electronic device, including at least one processor, at least one memory, and at least one communication bus.

[0120] Among them, the memory stores a computer program, the computer program includes computer-readable instructions, and the processor calls the computer-readable instructions stored in the memory through the communication bus to execute the above-mentioned virtual power plant scheduling method based on the cloud-edge-end architecture.

[0121] The present invention uses a three - area system to illustrate the effect of the solution of the present invention. The schematic diagram of the three - area system is as shown in Figure 3 . Each area contains energy storage devices, power generation devices, and shed - dable loads, with a total of 29 agents. In addition, the parameters of the algorithm are designed as k 1 = k 2 = m 1 = m 2 = 1, a = 0.5, and b = 1.5.

[0122] For this three - area system, the platform collects information from all areas and then solves for the optimal power generation values of areas A, B, and C. Figure 5 Shows the predicted loads for each time period in the three areas A, B, and C obtained according to the 24 - hour load prediction values.

[0124] In Figure 6 (a), Figure 7 (a), and Figure 8 (a), it is shown that the consistency algorithm can solve the optimal power of each power generation device. In the simulation, different power generation units have different initial power generation amounts, which also indicates that their consistency variables have different initial values. Figure 6 (b), Figure 7 (b), andFigure 8 (b) It shows that the algorithm can achieve consistency through several iterations within a fixed time. To highlight the advantages of the cloud-edge-terminal collaboration framework, Figure 9 the effect of the distributed algorithm without the cloud-edge-terminal framework is shown, which requires more iterations to converge to the same accuracy.
