Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power distribution networks, specifically relating to a hierarchical optimization method and system for the active power-voltage step droop curve of a charging station. Background Technology
[0002] The penetration rate of renewable energy in distribution networks is gradually increasing. However, renewable energy output exhibits significant intermittency and volatility. Simultaneously, distribution network load exhibits high uncertainty due to factors such as user electricity consumption behavior and industrial restructuring. Therefore, the dual uncertainty of renewable energy and load exacerbates the complexity of power flow distribution in distribution networks, leading to voltage deviation and fluctuation problems, and threatening the safe operation of the distribution network.
[0003] Meanwhile, electric vehicles have received widespread attention due to their energy-saving and emission-reduction advantages. As sales of new energy vehicles continue to climb, the scale of electric vehicle charging stations is also expanding. It is noteworthy that most electric vehicle owners spend more time parking at charging stations than they actually need to charge at maximum power to reach the required amount of electricity. This phenomenon indicates that electric vehicles possess significant potential as a controllable load resource during parking periods. For example, when renewable energy output is excessive and grid voltage is high, electric vehicles can adaptively increase charging power to consume excess energy and lower grid voltage; conversely, when renewable energy output is insufficient and grid voltage is low, electric vehicles can adaptively reduce charging power to decrease electrical load and raise grid voltage. To achieve this, it is necessary to accurately determine the adjustable power range of charging stations, enabling them to participate in voltage regulation of the distribution network. No relevant solutions have yet been proposed in the current technology. Summary of the Invention

To optimize the power of each segment of the obtained stepped droop curve, The charging power of each charging station is evenly distributed to each electric vehicle according to the minimum segmented power of the stepped droop curve.

[0082] A hierarchical optimization system for the active power-voltage step droop curve of a charging station includes:
[0083] The charging station-side processing module is configured to construct a single electric vehicle SoC model based on the charging behavior data of electric vehicle users, including the time of entering the charging station, the time of leaving the charging station, the initial state of charge (SoC) when entering the charging station, and the expected SoC when leaving the charging station, and then construct a charging station SoC model after aggregating electric vehicles.
[0084] Considering the uncertainty of the number of electric vehicles arriving at the charging station and their charging behavior, a conditional risk value optimization model for the SoC interval of the charging station is established. The optimization objective is to minimize the charging cost and conditional risk value. The SoC interval of the charging station is obtained through rolling optimization in each scheduling period. Based on the SoC interval, the power adjustable range of the charging station in the first period of the rolling optimization cycle is calculated, and the power range is reported to the distribution network dispatch center.
[0085] Based on the stepped droop curve of the current scheduling period obtained from the distribution network processing module, the power of each segment of the droop curve is decomposed to obtain the charging power of each electric vehicle corresponding to different segment power, and the charging active power of electric vehicles is dynamically adjusted according to the real-time voltage measurement value and the power decomposition result.
[0086] The distribution network processing module is configured to consider the uncertainty of renewable energy output and load in the distribution network system at the distribution network system level. Based on the power adjustable range reported by the charging station in each scheduling period, it establishes an optimization model of the active power-voltage step droop curve of the charging station, solves the optimal step droop curve for each scheduling period, and sends it to the charging station.
[0087] The present invention also provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by a processor, implements the hierarchical optimization method for the active power-voltage step droop curve of a charging station as described above.
[0088] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0089] (1) Unlike battery energy storage systems, which are fixed-capacity devices, electric vehicle charging stations have varying capacities depending on the number of electric vehicles parked at different times. Furthermore, charging stations only have charging functionality, meaning they can only serve as loads on the distribution network. Battery energy storage, on the other hand, can both charge and discharge. Therefore, the SoC range optimization for electric vehicle charging stations differs from that for battery energy storage. This invention optimizes the SoC range of charging stations to meet the charging needs of all electric vehicle owners, obtaining the adjustable power range of each charging station and enabling it to participate in voltage regulation of the distribution network. Considering that electric vehicles are not adapted to frequent power changes, a stepped active-voltage droop curve for charging stations is established, allowing for adjustment within a limited power range. This can improve the voltage quality of the distribution network to a certain extent, reduce power loss, and provide a new technical path for achieving safe and economical operation of the distribution network. By coordinating the SoC range conditional risk value optimization of charging stations with active-voltage stepped droop control, the SoC range and stepped droop curve parameters of the charging stations are optimized, and local droop control is implemented to minimize power loss and voltage deviation in the distribution network.
[0090] (2) Traditional droop modeling output power changes frequently with voltage changes, which will affect electric vehicles and is undesirable for electric vehicle users. This invention proposes a stepped droop curve model suitable for electric vehicle charging stations, and a corresponding droop curve power decomposition method, which can efficiently adjust the charging power of electric vehicles while avoiding the impact of frequent power adjustments on electric vehicles.
