When the power generation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid is higher than the local load, the energy storage device discharges as much as possible within the allowable range; when the power generation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid is lower than the local load, the energy storage device discharges to meet the electricity demand. When the energy storage device cannot meet the demand, power is considered to be purchased from the grid;
[0058] When the electricity price is in the valley period, the power purchase strategy is given priority. Within the range of the charge state of the energy storage device, power is preferentially purchased from the large power grid. At this time, the purchased power simultaneously meets the charging demand of the energy storage device and the local load gap. When the charge state of the energy storage device reaches the upper limit, the energy storage ends. At this time, the purchased power only meets the local load gap. When the electricity price is in the flat stage, the priority is to maintain the charge state of the energy storage device. When the power generation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid is higher than the local load, the energy storage device is preferentially charged. When the local load exceeds the generating capacity of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid's generating units, the energy storage device fills the gap;

[0060] The digital twin platform is used for data collection, providing an interaction interface, and building a digital twin model. Based on the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm with an improved archive maintenance strategy and a fuzzy decision-making method, the output situation of the power system is optimized in real-time scheduling.
[0061] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0062] 1. The present invention combines three power generation forms: photovoltaic power generation, solar thermal power generation, and wind power generation, as well as energy storage devices. Based on the impacts of factors such as local load and external large power grid environment on the equipment efficiency of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid, an equipment dynamic efficiency model is established. Through the digital twin model, various twin data such as local load and external large power grid environment are obtained. With economic benefits and the health of the energy storage device as the goals, a multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm based on an improved archive maintenance strategy and a fuzzy decision-making method is proposed to optimize the output situation of the energy storage device in real-time scheduling, enhancing the economy and environmental performance of the system and improving the multi-energy complementarity and conversion ability of the system.

At the same time, considering the impact of the charge state (SOC) cycle interval on the lifespan, an exponential function is used to quantify the health degree.

[0092] Establish the constraints of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid system, specifically including:
[0093] (1) The operation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid system needs to satisfy the power constraints within the AC-DC hybrid microgrid:
[0094]
[0095] Among them: —— Power of the i-th subnet at time t, kW; —— Photovoltaic power of the i-th subnet at time t, kW; —— Wind power generation power of the i-th subnet at time t, kW —— Solar thermal power generation power of the i-th subnet at time t, kW; —— Power of the energy storage device in the i-th subnet at time t, kW; —— Load power of the i-th subnet at time t, kW.

[0097]
[0098] (3) The operation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid system needs to satisfy the state-of-charge constraint of the energy storage device and the charge-discharge power constraint of the energy storage device:
[0099]
[0100] In the formula: —— State of charge of the i-th subnet at the initial moment, %; —— State of charge of the i-th subnet at the termination moment, %; —— Minimum charge amount of the energy storage device, %; —— Maximum charge amount of the energy storage device, %.
[0101] (4) The operation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid system needs to satisfy the tie-line power constraint:
[0102]
[0103] In the formula: —— Lower limit value, kW; —— Upper limit value, kW; —— Power of subnet i at time t, kW.
[0104] (5) The operation of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid system needs to meet the external power purchase and sale constraints:
[0105]
[0106] Where: —— The upper limit of external power sales, kW; —— The upper limit of external power purchases, kW; —— The external power purchase volume at time t, kW.
[0107] Based on the proposed system model, objective function, and constraint conditions, establish a mathematical model for the multi-objective optimal scheduling of the system; obtain the initial load data of the microgrid; obtain the annual meteorological historical data and time-of-use electricity price data; obtain basic parameters such as equipment operation efficiency, rated power, start-stop time, etc.
[0108] Design an improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm (MOPSO-IAFD): Improve the archive maintenance strategy: Introduce the displacement-based density estimation (ISDE) index to screen non-dominated solutions with both convergence and distribution; Fuzzy decision-making method: Quantify the satisfaction of each objective through membership functions and select the optimal scheduling plan.
[0109] Optimize the energy storage charge and discharge strategy in real time, combine the time-of-use electricity price and renewable energy output, and dynamically adjust the power purchase and sale plan and energy storage power;
[0110] Specifically, when the electricity price is at the peak period, give priority to selling electricity to earn profits. If the power generation of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid is higher than the local load, the energy storage device will discharge as much as possible within the allowable range; if the power generation of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid is lower than the local load, the energy storage device will discharge to meet the electricity demand. When the energy storage device cannot meet the demand, power needs to be purchased from the grid.
[0111] When the electricity price is at the valley period, the power purchase strategy should be given priority. Within the state of charge range of the energy storage device, purchase electricity from the large grid as much as possible. At this time, the power purchase power simultaneously meets the charging demand of the energy storage device and the local load gap. When the state of charge of the energy storage device reaches the upper limit, the energy storage ends. At this time, the power purchase power only meets the local load gap. When the electricity price is at the flat stage, give priority to maintaining the state of charge of the energy storage device. When the power generation of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid is higher than the local load, give priority to charging the energy storage device. If the local load exceeds the generating capacity of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid's generating units, the energy storage device will fill the gap.
[0112] Output the optimal scheduling plan and synchronously update the parameters of the digital twin model.
[0113] The scheduling of AC-DC hybrid microgrids requires determining the charging and discharging powers of energy storage devices in i subgrids over 24 time periods simultaneously, and i×24 decision variables need to be determined. Therefore, a matrix encoding method is adopted, that is:
[0114]
[0115] In the formula: —— The power of the energy storage device in the i-th subgrid at the first time period, kW.
[0116] In the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, a significant feature is the use of archives to retain elite solutions. The results obtained by such algorithms are often a set containing multiple solutions rather than a single solution. Therefore, an efficient archive management strategy is required to store high-quality optimal solution sets. However, the current archive management method based on the Pareto dominance principle only focuses on whether a solution is not dominated by other solutions. It should be noted that the Pareto dominance relationship only belongs to the category of qualitative evaluation. Whether a solution is in a non-dominated state completely depends on whether its objective values are superior to those of other solutions in the archive, that is, it performs better in at least one objective. For non-dominated solutions, they are regarded as being at the same level in terms of convergence. Nevertheless, the convergence efficiency of particles is also deeply affected by the superiority of their objective values relative to other particles. Consider a scenario in a two-dimensional objective space. Suppose there are 3 non-dominating particles: X(1.0, 0.5), Y(1.2, 0.4), and Z(0.9, 0.6). In this context, particle Z performs significantly better than X and Y in the first objective, thus showing more prominent convergence characteristics. However, according to the Pareto dominance theory, X, Y, and Z are regarded as having the same convergence efficiency, which ignores the actual performance differences among them and fails to fully reflect their true advantages and disadvantages. In view of the above challenges, an archive maintenance strategy based on quantitative evaluation of solution quality is conceived. The first step is to introduce a quantitative evaluation method that can accurately judge based on the superiority of the objective values of solutions compared to other solutions. Subsequently, a step-by-step reduction strategy is designed, the core of which is to gradually remove relatively weak solutions from the candidate solution set until the preset solution set capacity limit is reached. When the archive exceeds the limit, the solutions with the smallest performance evaluation indicators are removed from the archive in turn.
[0117] After obtaining a series of candidate scheduling schemes, this study adopts a strategy based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation to select the optimal scheduling scheme. This strategy is different from traditional decision-making methods and does not require prior determination of the clear weight distribution among various objectives. First, define the membership function of the i-th objective of the k-th scheduling scheme. The higher the membership function value of the scheduling scheme on this objective, the higher the satisfaction of this objective. Then, for the k-th candidate scheduling scheme, calculate the normalized membership function, and the scheduling scheme with the largest value is the optimal scheduling scheme.
[0118] Example 2
[0119] According to Figure 1 、 2 、Figures 3 and 4, this embodiment proposes a multi-objective scheduling system for AC-DC hybrid microgrids based on digital twins. In the AC-DC hybrid microgrid, each subnet consists of a wind power generation device, a photovoltaic power generation device, an energy storage device, a local load, and an interface converter that connects the bus and each power source. The common DC bus uses an interconnection converter to connect each subnet. Through a static switch, the connection between the common DC bus and the large power grid is realized to achieve power interaction.
[0120] The power system includes a wind turbine generator for converting wind energy into electrical energy; a photovoltaic unit and a solar thermal unit for converting light energy into electrical energy, and an external power grid; an energy storage system, including a storage battery, etc.
[0121] As Figure 2 shown, through the digital twin model, real-time monitoring, data analysis, and optimal scheduling of the physical system can be realized, providing strong support for the operation and management of the microgrid and other physical systems. The data of the real model is transmitted to the digital twin platform, and the digital twin platform will establish a digital model. The digital model performs real-time calculation and analysis, and the obtained results are fed back to the digital twin platform. The conceptual model of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid based on digital twins consists of a physical model and a digital model. The physical model (including various devices and sensors in the AC-DC hybrid microgrid) transmits real-time environment, load data, and device information to the digital model. Real-time optimization of the microgrid is realized in the digital model.
[0122] Example 3
[0123] According to Figure 1 、 2 、Figures 3 and 4, in this embodiment, the improved charge and discharge strategy is as Figure 3 shown. This strategy dynamically adjusts the energy storage operation mode based on the time-of-use electricity price mechanism, specifically as follows:
[0124] (1) Peak period scheduling:
[0125] When the electricity price is in the peak range, give priority to selling electricity to the power grid to obtain benefits;
[0126] If the system power generation exceeds the local load demand, the energy storage device discharges maximally within the power limit;
[0127] If the power generation is insufficient, the energy storage discharges to make up the load gap;
[0128] When the energy storage capacity is exhausted and still cannot meet the demand, start purchasing electricity from the power grid.
[0129] (2) Valley period scheduling:
[0130] During low electricity price periods, give priority to purchasing electricity from the grid to charge the energy storage, while covering the load gap.
[0131] When the state of charge (SOC) of the energy storage reaches the upper limit, stop charging, and the purchased electricity is only used for load power supply.
[0132] (3) Normal period scheduling:
[0133] Aiming to maintain the stability of the energy storage SOC:
[0134] If the system's generated electricity is surplus, give priority to charging the energy storage;
[0135] If the load exceeds the generation capacity, the energy storage discharges to fill the power difference;
[0136] By dynamically balancing the charging and discharging behaviors, reduce the deep cycling of the energy storage and extend the equipment life.
[0137] Technical effects:
[0138] This strategy realizes the collaborative optimization of maximizing economic benefits and the health of the energy storage through real-time matching of electricity price signals with generation-load, while improving the renewable energy consumption rate.
[0139] Embodiment 4
[0140] According to Figure 1 , 2 , 3, and 4, in this embodiment, for the AC-DC hybrid microgrid multi-objective optimization model proposed for optimal solution, a multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm based on an improved archive maintenance strategy and fuzzy decision method (multi-objective particle swarm optimization based on improved archive and fuzzy decision, MOPSO-IAFD) is proposed. First, an improved archive maintenance strategy based on the indicator based on shift for density estimation (ISDE) index is proposed, which not only maintains solutions with good convergence, but also keeps the solutions in the archive with good distribution, thus achieving a complete record of the entire Pareto dominance front; on the other hand, a best scheduling scheme selection strategy based on fuzzy decision is introduced to effectively solve the defect that traditional multi-objective particle swarm algorithms can only solve one non-dominated solution set. The basic algorithm framework of MOPSO-IAFD is as Figure 4 shown.
[0141] The scheduling of the AC / DC hybrid microgrid needs to simultaneously determine the charging and discharging powers of the energy storage devices in i sub-grids during 24 time periods, and i×24 decision variables need to be determined. Therefore, a matrix encoding method is adopted, that is:
[0142]
[0143] In the formula: —— The power of the energy storage device in the i-th sub-grid at the first time period, kW.
[0144] In the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, a significant feature is the use of archives to retain elite solutions. The results obtained by such algorithms are often a set containing multiple solutions rather than a single solution. Therefore, an efficient archive management strategy is needed to store high-quality optimal solution sets. However, the current archive management method based on the Pareto dominance principle only focuses on whether a solution is not dominated by other solutions. It should be noted that the Pareto dominance relationship only belongs to the category of qualitative evaluation. Whether a solution is in a non-dominated state entirely depends on whether its objective values are superior to those of other solutions in the archive, that is, it performs better in at least one objective. For non-dominated solutions, they are regarded as being at the same level in terms of convergence. Nevertheless, the convergence efficiency of particles is also deeply affected by the superiority of their objective values relative to other particles. Consider a scenario in a two-dimensional objective space. Suppose there are 3 non-dominant particles: X(1.0, 0.5), Y(1.2, 0.4), and Z(0.9, 0.6). In this context, particle Z performs significantly better than X and Y in the first objective, thus showing more prominent convergence characteristics. However, according to the Pareto dominance theory, X, Y, and Z are regarded as having the same convergence efficiency, which ignores the actual performance differences among them and fails to fully reflect their true advantages and disadvantages. In view of the above challenges, an archive maintenance strategy based on quantitative evaluation of solution quality is conceived. The first step is to introduce a quantitative evaluation method that can accurately judge based on the superiority of the objective values of the solutions compared to other solutions. Subsequently, a step-by-step reduction strategy is designed, the core of which is to gradually remove relatively weak solutions from the candidate solution set until the preset solution set capacity limit is reached. When the archive exceeds the limit, the solutions with the smallest performance evaluation indicators are removed from the archive in turn.
[0145] After obtaining a series of candidate scheduling schemes, this study adopts a strategy based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation to select the optimal scheduling scheme. This strategy is different from traditional decision-making methods and does not require prior determination of the clear weight distribution among various objectives.
