Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of low-voltage power distribution networks, in particular to a method and device for improving power grid carrying capacity based on roof photovoltaic regulation. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the acceleration of global energy transformation, the penetration rate of distributed photovoltaics in low-voltage distribution networks continues to rise, and the overvoltage problem caused thereby has become a key bottleneck restricting the carrying capacity of the power grid. Traditional voltage regulation schemes mainly rely on the autonomous control function of photovoltaic inverters: Volt-Var (V-V) control adjusts the reactive power dynamically to support voltage, but in low X / R power grids, a large amount of reactive current needs to be injected, resulting in a sharp increase in line loss and the risk of equipment overload; Volt-Watt (V-W) control directly reduces photovoltaic active power output, which can quickly suppress overvoltage, but causes 5%-15% annual energy waste and damages investor returns. Existing research shows that a single control strategy can only improve the power grid carrying capacity (HC) by 1.5-2 times, and the hard power limit of V-W control can lead to the "rush to generate effect" - photovoltaics far from the point of common coupling (PCC) will reduce the capacity first due to higher voltage sensitivity, exacerbating system unfairness.

[0022] Figure 1is a flow chart of a power grid carrying capacity improvement method based on roof photovoltaic regulation according to the first embodiment of the present application;

[0023] Figure 2 is a flow chart of power grid carrying capacity evaluation according to the first embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application and not used to limit the scope of the present application. Furthermore, it should be understood that those skilled in the art can make various modifications or changes to the present application after reading the content taught by the present application, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims of the present application.

[0025] The first embodiment of the present application relates to a power grid carrying capacity improvement method based on roof photovoltaic regulation, as shown in Figure 1 comprising the following steps:

[0026] Step 1, deploying a battery energy storage system at a voltage-sensitive node and planning the capacity of the battery energy storage system.

[0027] In this step, the battery energy storage system is deployed at the voltage-sensitive node, and the locally stored voltage watt V control reduction energy is used to absorb the excess energy generated by the photovoltaic active power reduction to achieve optimization. In the present embodiment, the capacity planning mode of the battery energy storage system is as follows:

[0028] For the power capacity of the battery energy storage system, the maximum power demand of the battery energy storage system is the maximum reduction power value of each roof photovoltaic unit under V-W control, that is:

[0029] BESS MaxPower = max{PV curtailed [n]};

[0030] Wherein, BESS MaxPower is the maximum power demand of the battery energy storage system, and PV curtailed [n] is the reduction power value of the nth roof photovoltaic unit under V-W control.

[0031] For the energy capacity of the battery energy storage system, the theoretical energy storage demand of the battery energy storage system throughout the day needs to be quantified, and the discharge depth and charge-discharge efficiency of the battery energy storage system are taken into account. In the present embodiment, the planning mode of the energy capacity of the battery energy storage system is as follows:

[0032]

[0033] Wherein, BESS Capacity is the energy capacity of the battery energy storage system, and ∑P curtailed(n) Duration is the full-day theoretical energy storage demand of the battery energy storage system, P curtailed (n) is the power reduction of the nth photovoltaic unit under voltage-to-watt control, Duration is the time interval, DoD is the depth of discharge of the battery energy storage system, usually 80%, Eff is the charge-discharge efficiency of the battery energy storage system, usually 98%.

[0034] Step 2, when the roof photovoltaic unit adopts a hybrid control strategy of voltage-to-watt control and voltage-to-ampere control, dynamically adjusts the reactive and active power.

[0035] The core goal of voltage-to-ampere control is to maintain the grid voltage within the allowed range by adjusting the reactive power output of the roof photovoltaic unit. When the grid voltage exceeds the upper limit, the system absorbs reactive power (inductive region operation); when the grid voltage is lower than the lower limit, the roof photovoltaic unit injects reactive power into the grid to raise the voltage. When the "watt priority" configuration is adopted within the inverter power limit, the system prioritizes maximizing active power generation, while voltage-to-ampere control requires additional reactive power to support the voltage level. When voltage-to-ampere control is used, the limit of reactive power injected by the roof photovoltaic unit into the grid is determined by the following method:

[0036]

[0037] Where, Q pv,n is the limit of reactive power injected by the nth roof photovoltaic unit into the grid, S pv,n is the rated apparent power of the nth roof photovoltaic unit, P pv,n is the active power of the nth roof photovoltaic unit.

[0038] Voltage-to-watt control is specifically adjusted for the upper voltage limit. When the voltage exceeds the threshold, the roof photovoltaic unit reduces the active power by a preset proportion (soft reduction strategy), or directly reduces the active power to zero output (hard reduction strategy). This strategy is particularly effective in low X / R ratio grids, significantly alleviating the overvoltage problem caused by high penetration of DER. Compared with the hard reduction strategy, the soft reduction strategy can reduce about 5% of annual power generation loss.

[0039] Step 3, when the roof photovoltaic unit adopts voltage-to-watt control, activate the battery energy storage system, and absorb the excess energy generated by photovoltaic active power reduction through the battery energy storage system.

[0040] It is worth mentioning that the present embodiment also evaluates the grid carrying capacity, i.e. by constructing a randomized HC evaluation framework, the relationship between the battery energy storage system capacity demand and the HC gain under different control strategies is quantified. As Figure 2 shown, the evaluation process of the present embodiment includes three stages: initialization configuration, automatic simulation cycle and data analysis output.

[0041] The performance of the power grid is quantified by the charge-discharge rate, the battery-PV power ratio, the hosting capacity coefficient, and the PV-load energy ratio at the time of evaluation.

[0042] The charge-discharge rate is calculated by , where E-rate is the charge-discharge rate, BESS MarPower is the maximum power demand of the battery energy storage system, BESS Capacity is the actual capacity of the battery energy storage system taking into account losses.

[0043] The battery-PV power ratio is calculated by , where BESSPVratio is the battery-PV power ratio, PV Power is the rated power capacity of the rooftop PV unit.

[0044] The hosting capacity coefficient is calculated by , where HCC is the hosting capacity coefficient, Energytobecurtailed is the amount of PV power generation that needs to be curtailed.

[0045] The PV-load energy ratio is calculated by , where PVLoadRatio is the PV-load energy ratio, S PV is the daily total power generation of the rooftop PV unit, S L is the daily total power consumption of the load.

[0046] It can be found that, by combining the V-V control strategy and the V-W control strategy, the present application reduces line losses caused by reactive current flow, and combines the battery energy storage system to store curtailed energy, thereby achieving an increase in energy utilization rate and an increase in the comprehensive efficiency of the power grid system by 30%-40%. The present application deploys the battery energy storage system at a voltage-sensitive node, specifically alleviates the problem of overvoltage, and increases the hosting capacity (HC) of the low-voltage power grid by more than 30%, which is 50% more accurate than the traditional centralized energy storage scheme.
