[0036] The collected data may have duplicates, missing values or outliers, so preprocessing is required: (1) Data cleaning: Remove duplicate data and correct obvious error data (such as outliers caused by sensor failures). (2) Missing value filling: For missing data, use linear interpolation to fill continuous missing values and use the K-nearest neighbor algorithm to fill discrete missing values. (3) Outlier handling: Use the 3σ principle (that is, data outside the range of the mean ± 3 times the standard deviation is regarded as an outlier) and the box plot method (identify outliers through the interquartile range) for processing.

[0037] (2) Photovoltaic power generation prediction

[0038] Use the LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) neural network as the photovoltaic power generation prediction model. LSTM can capture long-term dependencies in time series data and is suitable for processing the time series characteristics of photovoltaic power generation.

The specific strategies are as follows: (1) Charge during low electricity price periods: During periods with low electricity prices (such as at night), the energy storage system charges to reduce the charging cost. (2) Discharge during high electricity price periods: During periods with high electricity prices (such as during the day), the energy storage system discharges to reduce the cost of purchasing power from the grid.

[0053] Objective: Through the charge and discharge strategy of the energy storage system, maximize the economic benefits, while suppressing the fluctuations of photovoltaic power generation power and improving the stability and reliability of the system.

[0054] (7) Real-time scheduling and feedback control

(3) Feedback control: Correct the scheduling results through a feedback control mechanism to ensure that the system always operates in an optimal state.

[0057] Feedback control mechanism: (1) Deviation correction: When there is a large deviation between the real-time data and the predicted value, the system will automatically adjust the charge and discharge strategy of the energy storage system to cope with sudden changes in photovoltaic power generation or load demand. (2) Stability guarantee: Through feedback control, the system can quickly respond to changes in the external environment and load demand, ensuring the stability and reliability of the system.
