Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photovoltaic configuration, and more particularly to a photovoltaic capacity configuration method based on output capacity demand. BACKGROUND

[0002] To meet the needs of agricultural irrigation, urban water supply and ecological regulation and storage, a large number of pumping stations are constructed between rivers and lakes and irrigation areas. In recent years, photovoltaic power generation has become an important option for replacing energy in pumping stations due to its clean and renewable advantages. However, photovoltaic output is intermittent and random, and if the installed capacity is not properly configured, there will be two major contradictions of insufficient water supply or serious light rejection. The current research mostly uses fixed load power balance or empirical coefficient to estimate the capacity, ignoring:

[0003] The flexibility of the pumping station itself "multiple variable speed" operation - the photovoltaic power can be matched by adjusting the number of water pumps and the speed of the pumps;

[0004] The water supply service target - the actual concern of the irrigation area is the annual water supply rather than the instantaneous power balance;

[0005] The policy light rejection constraint - the state / local government puts forward a hard target for new energy utilization rate (such as ≥ 90%), and the capacity that is too large will lead to excessive light rejection, and the capacity that is too small will also be difficult to complete the annual water supply task.

[0006] Based on the above background, under the premise of knowing the multi-pump group and variable frequency speed regulation capability of the pumping station, the time series characteristics of regional photovoltaic resources and the upper limit of the policy light rejection rate, how to determine the installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station so that the actual annual water supply reaches the maximum and the average annual light rejection rate does not exceed the specified upper limit is the core problem to be solved.

[0007] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a solution. SUMMARY

[0012] Step 2, obtaining photovoltaic output data: according to the annual output characteristics of regional photovoltaic power stations, a single time step is selected, the output coefficient of unit installed capacity corresponding to the time step is counted, and the annual photovoltaic power station output of each period is calculated by combining the photovoltaic installed capacity and the photovoltaic installed capacity;

[0013] Step 3, establishing an optimization decision model: a decision model with the maximum annual water supply as the target is constructed, which includes:

[0014] Objective function: maximize the total amount of water pumped by the system throughout the year;

[0015] Decision variable: photovoltaic power station installed capacity;

[0016] Constraint condition: including pump station power upper and lower limit constraint, water pump working station number range constraint, water pump speed safety range constraint, light rejection rate threshold constraint and variable non-negative constraint;

[0018] Step 5, screening feasible schemes: according to the preset upper limit of light rejection rate, screen the photovoltaic installed capacity and the corresponding annual water supply that meet the constraints;

[0019] Step 6, determining the optimal installed capacity: select the photovoltaic installed capacity corresponding to the maximum annual water supply from the feasible schemes of step 5 as the final configuration scheme.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the specific implementation of the objective function in step 3 is:

[0021] The system water pumping flow is determined by the photovoltaic installed capacity, the unit installed capacity output coefficient, the real-time output value and the light rejection rate;

[0022] The abandoned power output value does not exceed the difference between the total photovoltaic output and the minimum running power of the pump station;

[0023] The annual average light rejection rate is the ratio of total abandoned power to total power generation.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the constraint condition of step 3 includes:

[0025] The real-time power of the pump station is between the minimum running power and the maximum running power;

[0026] The number of water pump start-ups is within the range of single station to maximum working pump number;

[0027] The water pump speed is between the allowed minimum speed and the maximum speed;

[0028] The annual average light rejection rate does not exceed the set threshold.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the range of values of the photovoltaic installed capacity in step 4 is determined by the following method:

[0030] The minimum value is zero;

[0031] The maximum value is the maximum operating power of the pump station divided by the annual average output value of the photovoltaic unit capacity.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the upper limit value of the light rejection rate in step 5 does not exceed 10%.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the time step selection mechanism of step 2 is:

[0034] Provide a variety of time resolution options ranging from 1 / 60h to 1h;

[0035] Only one time step is actually used for calculation.

[0048] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] In this example, a water pumping station (installed 4 centrifugal pumps, 3 working and 1 standby, with a designed net head of 149.8m and a rated flow of 0.34m 3 / s, rated lift is 158.0m, rated speed is 1480r / min) as an example. Figure 1 As shown in FIG, a photovoltaic capacity configuration method based on output capacity demand is implemented in the following specific steps:

[0050] Step 1: Calculate the operating power of the water pump station under different operating conditions: Based on the basic parameters of the pump station, calculate the operating power of the water pump station under different operating pump numbers (1 to 3) and different speed conditions. The water pump station power can be obtained by using the pump station test curve based on the water pump flow-head characteristics and electrical efficiency. Arrange the water pump station power under each operating condition in ascending order (such as Figure 2 The power list obtained in step 1 provides the pump station load conditions for subsequent configuration calculations.

[0051] Step 2: Obtain photovoltaic output data: According to the annual output characteristics of the photovoltaic power stations built in the study area, select a single time step (take 1 / 60h, 1 / 12h, 1 / 6h, 1 / 4h, 1 / 3h, 1 / 2h, 1h, etc.), and calculate the unit installed capacity output coefficient (unit installed capacity output coefficient) corresponding to the time step (such as Figure 3 Multiply the output per unit installed capacity by the photovoltaic installed capacity to obtain the output of the photovoltaic power station in each time period of the year under different installed capacity conditions.

[0052] Step 3: Establishing the mathematical model of the capacity configuration of the photovoltaic water pumping station system: constructing a mathematical optimization model with the maximization of annual water supply as the objective.

[0062] D is the total number of days in a year, with the unit of days;

[0063] J is the number of time periods according to the time step , the daily output process of the photovoltaic power station is divided into J time periods, where ;

[0072] b. Decision variables

[0076] ② Constraints on the number of water pumps in operation: ;

[0077] ③Pump speed constraint: ;

[0078] ④ Constraints on the average annual abandonment rate of photovoltaic power stations: ;

[0079] ⑤ Non-negative constraint: All the variables involved above are non-negative values.

[0080] Where:

[0081] The maximum power of the water pumping station when it is started, in kW;

[0082] is the power of the water pumping station at the dth day and the jth period of the whole year, in kW;

[0087] The maximum speed of the water pump in the water pumping station, in r / min;

[0088] The upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station.

[0089] Step 4: Calculate the annual water supply and light rejection rate under different photovoltaic capacities: combine the pump station power obtained in step 1 under different numbers of starting units and different water pump speeds with the daily output process of the photovoltaic power station obtained in step 2 under different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station throughout the year as input variables of the mathematical model of the photovoltaic water pumping station system photovoltaic capacity configuration established in step 3 to obtain the annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system under different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station (see Figure 4 ), and calculate the corresponding annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station (see Figure 5 ).

[0090] Among them, the daily output process of the photovoltaic power station under different installed capacities as input variables, the minimum value of the installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station is zero, the maximum value of the installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station is the ratio of the maximum power of the water pumping station running when the pump station starts to the annual average output per unit installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station, and the corresponding photovoltaic water pumping station system annual water supply under different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station is obtained in an equivalent incremental manner, and the corresponding annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station is calculated. For example: the annual average output per unit installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station is 0.195kW, the maximum power of the water pumping station running when the pump station starts is 2123.662kW, so the maximum installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station is 10900kW.

[0091] Step 5: Select a scheme that meets the light rejection rate requirement: according to the annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system under different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station and the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station obtained in step 4, and the set upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station, select the different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station and the corresponding annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system that meet the upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station (see Table 1).

[0092] Among them, the upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station needs to be set according to local policy requirements or actual conditions. For example: The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration recently issued the "Optimization of Power System Regulation Capacity Special Action Implementation Plan (2025-2027)", which proposes that the national new energy utilization rate will not be less than 90%. Therefore, 10% is selected as the upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station.

[0094]

[0095] Step 6: Determine the optimal installed capacity: according to the upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station obtained in step 5, the different installed capacities of the photovoltaic power station and the corresponding annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system are obtained, the maximum value of the annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system is selected, and the corresponding installed capacity of the photovoltaic power station is selected as the final photovoltaic water pumping station system photovoltaic power station installed capacity configuration scheme. For example: select 10% as the upper limit value of the annual average light rejection rate of the photovoltaic power station, and the maximum value of the annual water supply of the photovoltaic water pumping station system is 791.75 million m 3 The corresponding photovoltaic power station installed capacity is 2900kW, so the final photovoltaic water pumping station system photovoltaic power station installed capacity is 2900kW.
