Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power system regulation and control, and particularly to a method for evaluating and trading non-electric indicators of electric buses. Background Art

[0002] Evaluating the non-electric indicators of electric buses and constructing a trading mechanism can accurately evaluate non-electric parameters such as the driving mileage, on-vehicle load, and carbon emission reduction contribution of buses, improve the market value of electric buses, increase the operation revenue, and at the same time contribute to the green and low-carbon development of urban transportation, enhance the flexibility of power grid dispatching, and achieve the dual optimization of bus energy utilization and environmental protection benefits.

[0003] However, the existing methods have the following deficiencies: 1) The real-time performance and integrity of load information collection are insufficient. The existing load data collection system responds slowly and fails to track the load changes of buses in real time. Especially during peak hours or extreme weather, the load fluctuates violently, which is difficult to capture by traditional methods. Traditional load collection mainly focuses on electrical parameters (such as SOC, charging power, etc.), while paying less attention to non-electric parameters such as passenger flow, driving trajectory, and traffic conditions, resulting in inaccurate load prediction. 2) The accuracy of charging load prediction is insufficient. The current charging load prediction methods are mainly based on historical power data and do not fully consider the impact of passenger flow changes on charging demand. Weather factors (such as heavy rain, cold snap, heat wave, etc.) will affect the bus driving route and load demand, but the existing models are difficult to dynamically adjust the prediction results. Traditional linear models are difficult to capture the non-linear change characteristics of charging load, resulting in large prediction errors. 3) The evaluation method of load non-electric indicators is not perfect. The existing methods mainly focus on power consumption and lack a systematic evaluation of non-electric indicators such as vehicle utilization rate, carbon emission reduction contribution, and passenger flow carrying rate. Making full use of deep reinforcement learning (such as DQN) to optimize the evaluation of the adjustment ability of non-electric indicators results in insufficient intelligence in bus operation scheduling. 4) The non-electric indicator trading mechanism is insufficient. Currently, there is no effective market mechanism for carbon credit trading and load regulation trading of buses, which cannot give full play to the load regulation ability and carbon emission reduction value of electric buses. The existing trading mechanism is difficult to reasonably evaluate the load regulation value of buses and lacks a dynamic pricing model based on comprehensive factors such as passenger flow, driving time, and environmental impact.

[0004] For the above reasons, the present invention designs a method for evaluating and trading non-electric indicators of electric buses to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

The non-electric index trading mechanism for electric buses enables bus operators to participate in the power market, provide power support, green power trading, and environmental adjustment support, and obtain corresponding economic benefits while meeting their own charging needs through market-based means.

[0120] For the non-electric index trading mechanism of electric buses, first of all, bus operators, as the sellers in the trading market, provide adjustable charging loads to level the power grid peaks and valleys, while preferentially using renewable energy for charging and reducing carbon emissions through optimized charging strategies. Grid operators, renewable energy power generators, and government agencies, as the buyers, pay corresponding subsidies to encourage buses to improve their load adjustment capabilities, promote the consumption of new energy, and reduce carbon emissions. The trading mechanism includes three core links. Power support trading allows buses to respond to grid demands by adjusting their charging powers and thus obtain power support revenues, which are calculated based on the adjusted power and market subsidy prices. Green power trading encourages buses to preferentially use renewable energy for charging and obtain revenues according to the amount of green power used. Environmental adjustment support trading is based on the reduction of carbon emissions, and bus companies can obtain subsidies from the government or the carbon market. Finally, bus operators calculate the total trading revenue based on the revenues of each trading link and optimize their charging strategies to maximize economic benefits, improve the utilization rate of green power, and reduce carbon emissions at the same time, contributing to the development of intelligent and low-carbon transportation.

[0121] Step 41), establish a non-electric index trading market for electric buses, define electric bus operators (bus companies) as sellers, and provide: power support, adjusting the charging power to respond to grid demands. Green power trading, using green power for charging to increase the consumption rate of new energy. Environmental regulation support, reducing carbon emissions and providing low-carbon charging services for the grid. Grid operators, renewable energy generators, and government departments act as buyers and pay corresponding fees.

[0122] Step 42), power support trading settlement. Buses can participate in the grid's demand response by adjusting the charging power P charge (t), providing peak shaving and valley filling support. Buses can adjust the charging strategy to reduce peak loads or fill valley loads, increasing the power trading revenue. The power support revenue is shown in formula (17):

[0123] R power (t) = λ power (t) · |P baseline (t) - P charge (t)| (17)

[0124] Step 43), green power settlement trading. The higher the proportion of green power used by buses during charging, the greater the green power trading revenue. Buses can optimize the charging time according to the green power price to maximize the green power trading revenue. The green power trading revenue calculation is shown in formula (18):

[0125] R green (t) = λ green (t) · P RE (t) (18)

[0126] Step 44), environmental regulation support settlement. Buses reduce carbon emissions by optimizing the charging strategy, and the government or carbon market provides subsidies. Buses can obtain higher carbon trading revenue if they use low-carbon electricity or avoid high-emission periods during charging. The revenue calculation is shown in formula (19):

[0127]

[0128] Step 45), total trading revenue calculation. The total revenue of bus operators consists of three parts. Bus companies can dynamically adjust the charging strategy according to the power support price, electricity price, carbon emission factor, etc. to maximize the market revenue. As shown in formula (20):
