Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic power generation, and in particular relates to a communication control circuit and method for a centralized and distributed photovoltaic power generation system. Background Art

[0002] At present, the control method of the photovoltaic power generation system configured with centralized and distributed inverter AC coupling mode is relatively simple, and the communication control is collected and controlled by the battery management system (Battery Management System, BMS), energy management system (Energy Management Unit, EMU), and data acquisition device (Energy Management System, EMS).

[0003] ① When transmitting upward: First, the BMS collects all battery information and transmits it to the EMU. The EMU collects BMS information, power conversion system (PCS) information, energy storage meter information and other information and uploads them to the EMS. The EMS collects EMU information, photovoltaic inverter information, box transformer low-voltage side information and other information for upward transmission;

[0004] ② When controlling downward: First, the dispatcher sends the information to the EMS. The EMS sends instructions to the EMU by comparing the power size. The EMU controls the charging and discharging of the energy storage battery. The EMS also controls the inverter module to control the photovoltaic output.

[0005] Long response time: When EMS directly collects information from each photovoltaic power generation unit in the site, the huge amount of data will place higher requirements on the EMS hardware performance and software control capabilities. Since a control system needs to control dozens or even hundreds of photovoltaic inverters and PCSs to run simultaneously, from data collection (including protocol conversion), logical judgment, command issuance to on-site response, the overall closed-loop operation time will be as long as tens of seconds, which cannot give full play to the advantages of rapid energy storage regulation.

[0006] Poor control accuracy: Since the information of photovoltaic and energy storage is collected separately, and then the inverter output and energy storage charging and discharging are controlled separately, the time for uploading and adjusting the response of the two parts of photovoltaic and energy storage is different. From the perspective of the overall output of the photovoltaic and energy storage power generation unit, the coordination consistency of photovoltaic power generation and energy storage charging and discharging is poor, resulting in large fluctuations in the output of the photovoltaic and energy storage power generation unit.

[0007] Single control mode: The existing AGC / AVC system at the station control layer can only use the rated capacity of the transformer of each photovoltaic power generation unit as the maximum control power of the power generation unit's grid connection point, and the output threshold remains unchanged. It is not possible to dynamically adjust the daily maximum output threshold of the grid connection point according to the actual weather, resulting in low energy storage utilization in cloudy weather and energy storage not working in rainy weather. At the same time, the output threshold issued by the existing AGC / AVC only considers photovoltaic output and does not consider the role of energy storage, making the utilization rate of energy storage lower in actual operation. Summary of the invention

[0008] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a communication control circuit for a centralized and distributed photovoltaic storage power generation system, the circuit comprising a photovoltaic module, an energy storage battery and an upper-level scheduling module, the photovoltaic module being sequentially connected to a photovoltaic DC / DC and a photovoltaic inverter; the circuit further comprises:

[0043] The present invention adds a coordination controller, a GOOSE network switch and an MMS network switch to the photovoltaic storage power generation system in the traditional centralized and distributed inverter AC coupling mode, and rebuilds the communication control system.

[0045] like Figure 2As shown, the present invention proposes a communication control circuit for a centralized and distributed photovoltaic storage power generation system, the circuit comprising a photovoltaic module, an energy storage battery and an upper-level scheduling module, the photovoltaic module is sequentially connected to a photovoltaic DC / DC and a photovoltaic inverter; the circuit also includes:

[0046] A GOOSE network switch, wherein the GOOSE network switch is respectively connected to the energy storage battery, the photovoltaic DC / DC and the photovoltaic inverter;

[0047] A coordination controller, wherein the coordination controller is connected to the GOOSE network switch at the bottom, connected to the upper-level dispatching module via an optical fiber at the top, and connected to the low-voltage side circuit of the box-type transformer via a cable;

[0048] The MMS network switch is connected to the photovoltaic inverter, the photovoltaic DC / DC and the energy storage battery respectively at the bottom, and is connected to the upper-level scheduling module via optical fiber at the top.

[0049] The circuit also includes an energy storage converter, which is connected to an energy storage battery at the bottom and to a GOOSE network switch at the top.

[0052] Specifically, in Figure 2 In the GOOSE network, the GOOSE network switch is connected to the PCS, PV DC / DC, and PV inverter (inverter module DC / AC) through the network port (RJ45) downward, and the protocol is IEC 61850-GOOSE; it is connected to the coordination controller through the network port upward, and the protocol is IEC 61850-GOOSE.

[0053] The MMS network switch is connected to the photovoltaic inverter (inverter module DC / AC), BMS, and EMU through the network port (RJ45) downward, and the protocol is IEC61850-MMS; it is connected to the fiber optic terminal box through the optical port upward, and the protocol is IEC61850-MMS.

[0054] The energy management system (EMU) is connected to the photovoltaic DC / DC, energy storage meter, transformer signal non-electric measurement module, etc. through the RS485 serial port downward; and is connected to the MMS network through the network port upward.

[0055] The coordination controller is connected to the GOOSE network and the current information on the low-voltage side of the box-type transformer downward, and is connected to the optical fiber distribution frame through the optical port upward. The protocol is IEC 61850.

[0056] BMS monitors the energy storage battery information and uploads it to PCS and MMS network through the network port.

[0057] The GOOSE network collects information from PCS, PV DC / DC, and PV inverters and uploads it to the coordination controller;

[0058] The MMS network collects BMS information and EMU information and uploads it to the upper scheduling layer;

[0059] The coordinated controller uses one cable to directly collect the current information on the low-voltage side of the box-type transformer from the transformer;

[0060] BMS collects battery information, and EMU collects information such as electricity meters.

[0061] like Figure 3 As shown, the control system controls:

[0062] (1) The coordination controller is connected to the station control layer A, B, and C systems respectively, accepts control instructions from each system, and realizes steady-state (AGC / AVC control) and transient (primary frequency modulation control) operation. The communication interfaces are independent of each other and support IEC 61850. It directly collects information from the photovoltaic DC / DC, energy storage converter (PCS), and photovoltaic inverter inside the photovoltaic power generation unit and supports IEC 61850.

[0063] (2) The coordinated controller directly collects the analog values ​​of voltage and current on the low-voltage side of the boost transformer.

[0064] (3) The coordination controller is connected to the action signal (dry contact) of the step-up transformer measurement and control device (including protection function).

[0065] (4) The coordinated controller output controls the photovoltaic inverter, energy storage converter (PCS), photovoltaic DC / DC, and can also control the opening and closing of the boost transformer low voltage side circuit breaker and the energy storage device circuit breaker.

[0066] (5) The coordination controller collects the internal information of the photovoltaic and energy storage power generation units in real time. It can accept various system control instructions from the station control layer, coordinate photovoltaic power generation and energy storage charging and discharging according to the remote control instructions, and realize photovoltaic and energy storage combined power generation (steady-state operation), peak load regulation (steady-state operation), primary frequency regulation (transient operation) and other functions; it can also automatically and dynamically set the output control power threshold for the day on-site based on the collected photovoltaic output value and compare it with the rated capacity of the step-up transformer, and use this threshold as an instruction to realize photovoltaic and energy storage combined power generation (steady-state operation).

[0067] like Figure 4As shown in the figure, the coordination controller is a controller that includes an operation module, a control module, an input module, and an output module.

[0068] Operation logic:

[0069] ① The coordination controller receives the scheduling instruction P1, compares P1 with 1.1 times the rated power of the transformer substation, calculates the minimum value of the two as Pmax (here to ensure that Pmax does not exceed 1.1 times the rated power of the transformer substation), then collects the power P of the photovoltaic inverter. Then, the coordination controller compares P with Pmax. When P = Pmax, the energy storage system neither charges nor discharges. When P > Pmax, the coordination controller controls the PCS to start charging. When P < Pmax, the coordination controller controls the PCS to start discharging. After the energy storage system operates, the coordination controller collects the power P of the low-voltage side of the transformer substation as the feedback value, compares P with Pmax, and then uses the coordination controller for correction again to make P = Pmax.

[0070] Or ② The coordination controller does not accept the scheduling instruction, compares the collected power P at the photovoltaic inverter with 1.1 times the rated power of the transformer substation, takes the smaller value as Pmax, and the rest of the calculation logic remains unchanged.

[0071] The control module requires that the coordination controller can directly control the photovoltaic inverter or its data collector, photovoltaic DC / DC, PCS, etc., can control multiple PCSs to operate in parallel, perform power balancing distribution of multiple PCSs according to the SOC values of each battery pack, and balance the SOC values of each battery pack. The upper communication interfaces are independent and can accept and quickly execute various superior schedules. It can automatically set dynamic output control thresholds for the photovoltaic energy storage power generation unit locally according to the real-time collected photovoltaic output and different weather conditions to avoid the problems of low energy storage utilization rate in cloudy weather and inability to put the energy storage into operation in overcast weather.

[0072] The input and output module is required to have various interface types such as multiple network ports, optical ports, serial ports, etc., and the protocol supports unified specifications such as IEC 61850, IEC604, and Modbus.

[0073] As Figure 5 shown, the present invention also proposes a control method for the communication control circuit of the centralized and decentralized photovoltaic energy storage power generation system, and the control method includes the following steps:

[0074] S1 The GOOSE network switch stores the data of the energy storage battery, photovoltaic DC / DC, and photovoltaic inverter into the GOOSE network;

[0078] The energy storage battery data is uploaded to the energy storage converter;

[0079] The GOOSE network switch stores the data of the energy storage battery in the energy storage inverter into the GOOSE network.
