Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric vehicles, and specifically to a management method for electric vehicles accessing the distribution network. Background Art

[0002] The large-scale access of electric vehicles will increase the power demand. Especially during peak hours, it may cause the distribution network to be overloaded, affecting the power supply reliability and voltage stability. At this time, it is necessary to manage the charging time and power to avoid excessive grid pressure. As a distributed energy storage unit, if properly managed, electric vehicles can provide power support when the grid needs it. For example, charging during low electricity consumption periods and discharging during peak periods, thus balancing the grid load, reducing the dependence on traditional power generation facilities, and improving energy utilization efficiency. In addition, the needs of users are diverse. For example, some users hope to charge their vehicles as quickly as possible, while others are more concerned about the charging cost. Through management, the charging strategy can be optimized to meet the needs of different users while reducing the overall charging cost.

Detailed implementation manners

[0050] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following further describes the implementation manners of the present invention in detail.

[0051] The present invention provides a management method for electric vehicles accessing the distribution network, including:

[0052] S1. Vehicle-grid interaction mechanism

[0053] S1.1 Demand preference modeling

[0054] User portrait construction: Based on historical data, a database of owner demand preferences is established to classify user types; among them, historical data includes charging time periods, power demand, and cost sensitivity, and user types include rigid charging type, flexible charging and discharging type, and economy priority type. The algorithm for classifying user types is the K-means algorithm. When processing large data sets such as user types, the K-means algorithm is usually more efficient than other clustering algorithms.

[0055] Dynamic behavior capture: Introduce a Markov decision process to describe the dynamic switching logic of the owner's charging mode, and combine it with a real-time interaction interface and the user's preference settings feedback on the APP to update the user status;

[0056] S1.2 Energy boundary model

[0057] Time-series energy constraint:

[0058] Establish an upper and lower limit model for the charging and discharging power of an electric vehicle cluster:

[0059]

[0060] P EV,t:Total active power of the electric vehicle cluster at time t. A positive value indicates power absorption from the grid, i.e., charging, and a negative value indicates power injection into the grid, i.e., discharging.

[0061] Q EV,t :Total reactive power of the electric vehicle cluster at time t. A positive value indicates inductive reactive power compensation, and a negative value indicates capacitive reactive power compensation.

[0062] The upper and lower limits of the active power are determined by the following factors:

[0063] (1) Battery charge and discharge rate limit;

[0064] (2) Rated power of the charging pile;

[0065] (3) The charging cut-off time set by the user, which needs to ensure full charge before the cut-off time.

[0066] The upper and lower limits of the reactive power are determined by the capacity of the charging pile converter and the grid voltage support requirement.

[0067] Through the above model, it is convenient to define the power regulation ability boundary of the electric vehicle cluster at each moment, ensuring that the charging and discharging behavior meets the user's needs and equipment safety.

[0068] S2. Dynamic Optimization of Charging and Discharging Power

[0069] S2.1 Hierarchical Control Architecture

[0070] Distribution network layer: Based on model predictive control, the total power demand of the distribution network is optimized in a rolling manner, aiming at minimizing network loss and voltage deviation, and issuing the cluster power command to the regional controller;

[0071] Electric vehicle cluster layer: Adopt a distributed optimization algorithm to allocate individual charging and discharging power under the constraint of meeting the owner's preference, and minimize the deviation between the total power and the command;

[0072] S2.2 Real-time Correction Strategy

[0073] Dynamic Power Redistribution:

[0074] Design an event-triggered mechanism. When the owner actively modifies the charging mode or the grid state changes suddenly, trigger local re-optimization to ensure real-time balance between user needs and grid safety;

[0075] S3. Active-Reactive Coordinated Optimization

[0079] V g : Grid voltage, referring to the voltage amplitude at the converter connection point;

[0080] I d : Direct axis of current, i.e., d-axis component, which is directly related to active power;

[0081] I q : Quadrature axis of current, i.e., q-axis component, which is directly related to reactive power.

[0082] By adjusting I d and I q , the active power P and reactive power Q can be independently controlled. When the electric vehicle charges at a constant power, P is fixed, and at this time, the adjustment ability of Q is limited by the total capacity S max of the converter, and the formula needs to be satisfied:

[0083] S3.2 Multi-objective collaborative optimization

[0084] Mixed-integer second-order cone programming model:

[0085] Taking the minimum operation cost of the distribution network and the minimum voltage deviation as two objectives, an optimization problem is constructed:

[0086] min(α∑C grid,t +β∑|V i,t -V nom |)

[0087] C grid,t : Grid power purchase cost at time t, which is related to the time-of-use electricity price;

[0088] V i,t : Voltage amplitude of node i in the distribution network at time t;

[0089] V nom : Nominal value of the node voltage;

[0090] α, β: Weight coefficients, used to balance economy and voltage stability; for example, when the distribution network is heavily loaded, then set β > α to give priority to ensuring voltage stability;

[0091] By optimizing the charging and discharging power and reactive power output of electric vehicles, the trade-off between the economy and security of the distribution network is achieved.

[0092] S4. Communication and data architecture

[0093] S4.1 Edge Computing Node Deployment: Deploy edge servers on the side of distribution transformers to facilitate millisecond-level local power distribution calculation and reduce cloud communication latency;

[0094] S4.2 Blockchain Evidence Storage: Use lightweight blockchain to record the interaction logs of user preferences and grid instructions to facilitate ensuring data credibility;

[0095] S5. Adaptive Weight Adjustment

[0096] Fuzzy Logic Controller: Dynamically adjust the optimization target weights according to the real-time load rate of the distribution network. When it is heavily loaded, voltage stability is prioritized, and when it is lightly loaded, economy is emphasized;

[0097] S6. Verification and Evaluation

[0098] S6.1 Simulation Test Platform

[0099] Joint Simulation Environment: Build an active distribution network - electric vehicle joint simulation platform to verify the voltage fluctuation suppression effect. Under typical scenarios, the voltage deviation ≤ 2%, and there is an economic benefit with a 15% - 25% cost reduction.

[0100] In this embodiment, the simulation test platform uses MATLAB software to call OpenDSS for establishing, compiling, and solving the circuit model, enabling users to utilize the powerful data processing and visualization functions of MATLAB and, at the same time, the professional power grid simulation capabilities of OpenDSS to achieve efficient power grid analysis and design.
