TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation, in particular to a kind of active distribution network photovoltaic carrying capacity stochastic-robust evaluation method based on mixed game. BACKGROUND
[0002] As the core technology of low-carbon transformation of energy structure, the installed capacity of photovoltaic is growing rapidly. However, the large-scale access of distributed photovoltaic leads to multiple technical challenges for distribution network. Distribution network operators urgently need to establish an accurate photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation system to balance the contradiction between renewable energy consumption demand and system safety operation constraints. Existing researches form two technical routes around photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation. One is the safety constraint analysis method based on global unified modeling, which solves the maximum photovoltaic access capacity that meets the static safety boundary by constructing an optimization model containing multiple constraint conditions such as thermal stability, short-circuit current capacity, voltage deviation and harmonic distortion rate. The other is the photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation considering improvement measures, in which the demand response adjustment potential of the load side is a key research content.
[0003] However, the above technical routes have significant limitations. The deepening of power market reform is reshaping the operation paradigm of distribution network. Traditional load-side users evolve into producers and consumers with bidirectional energy interaction capability. The global modeling method regards the distribution network as a single decision-making subject, ignoring the game behavior of multiple subjects such as distribution network operators, producers and consumers, and electric vehicle clusters in the power market environment, leading to mismatch between the evaluation results and the real decision-making scenario. The game strategies of emerging market subjects such as producers and consumers, and electric vehicle clusters may cause systematic bias in carrying capacity evaluation results by changing the temporal and spatial distribution of load.
[0004] In the power market, the behavior of producers and consumers trading electricity with distribution network operators constitutes a typical master-slave game process. At the same time, electric vehicle clusters dynamically adjust their charging demand based on the price signal, and their temporal and spatial flexibility provides a new dimension for load regulation. The access of these emerging market subjects significantly increases the complexity of market game. Although existing researches have focused on the game relationship between distribution network operators and a single subject, the dynamic game mechanism in the multi-level coordinated scheduling of distribution network operators-producers and consumers-electric vehicle clusters is still lacking in systematic modeling. On the one hand, distribution network operators need to guide the response behavior of producers and consumers through node prices. On the other hand, the dynamic pricing strategy of producers and consumers will also guide the charging decisions of electric vehicle clusters. Such multi-scale game interaction will significantly change the power flow distribution of the distribution network, and thus affect the evaluation boundary of photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation.
[0005] For the uncertainty of distribution network, the existing research mainly adopts stochastic optimization, robust optimization and its derivative methods. Stochastic optimization generates expected cost through probability scenario, but it depends on accurate probability distribution and is prone to optimistic bias; robust optimization seeks the worst-case solution based on the preset uncertainty set, but it reduces the practicability due to excessive conservatism. Hybrid stochastic robustness improves system flexibility by processing different uncertainty sources in different scenarios, but this method is still a simple superposition of stochastic optimization and robust optimization, and still has double limitations: stochastic optimization needs to assume accurate distribution, and the robust optimization part still has a conservative tendency, and fails to achieve organic integration at the methodological level. SUMMARY

[0074] To ensure a reasonable investment return period, a dynamic charging service fee adjustment strategy based on user occupancy rate is proposed. When the actual user occupancy rate is lower than the expected one, the dynamic charging service fee adjustment strategy is started to attract users; on the contrary, when the actual user occupancy rate exceeds the expected one and the internal operation pressure of the prosumers is large, the charging service fee is increased to limit the charging of some users.

[0080] 2) Evolutionary game model
[0081] When selecting charging stations, electric vehicle clusters typically conduct multi-faceted evaluations, using charging price, user occupancy rate, and accessibility as key performance indicators. The charging price for electric vehicles is calculated as follows:

[0111] Among them, the producer and consumer output constraints are as follows: (34)
[0112] When the producer and consumer sell electricity to the power distribution network, if the power distribution network regulation capacity cannot meet the system safety demand, the producer and consumer output can be reduced at the necessary moment to ensure the safe and stable operation of the system.
[0113] 1.4 Deterministic Compact Expression
[0114] The second objective function in the upper model is calculated through the middle model and the lower model. In order to facilitate subsequent discussion, the optimization scheduling model of PCU and the lower model are first converted into the following deterministic compact form:

[0119] wherein, 、 denote the state of charge and the state of discharge of the energy storage system, respectively, and are the active and reactive power of each branch of the distribution network; is the node voltage; is the branch current.
[0120] Step 2: Construction of a multi-objective multi-stage stochastic-robust evaluation model of photovoltaic carrying capacity of distribution network considering uncertainty
[0121] The photovoltaic carrying capacity evaluation model proposed in step 1 is deterministic and can be solved by using conventional deterministic optimization methods. However, new energy and load have strong uncertainty. In step 2, the source-load double-sided uncertainty of distributed photovoltaic and load of the distribution network is considered, and a stochastic-robust evaluation model of photovoltaic carrying capacity of the distribution network is established.
[0122] In the middle and lower layer models, in order to cope with multiple uncertainties in the system, a two-stage stochastic-robust evaluation model is constructed to reduce the conservatism of the solution and reduce the dependence on complete uncertainty information. First, it is assumed that the fluctuation range of photovoltaic and load power is constrained by a box-type uncertainty set:

Therefore, the NSGA III-C&CG algorithm is used to solve the model, the upper model uses the NSGA III algorithm for solution, and the layer model and the lower model can be converted into a multi-stage stochastic robust optimization problem in the process of each iteration calculation, and the C&CG algorithm is used for solution.

[0131] Analysis of photovoltaic hosting capacity (PVHC) evaluation results

The membership function is used to classify the pareto solution set, and the hierarchical analysis method is used to calculate the comprehensive membership, and the solution with the highest comprehensive membership is selected as the optimal solution. The cost of each subject and its corresponding photovoltaic capacity under the optimal solution are shown in Table 1. In addition to the operating cost, each producer and consumer PCU needs to consider the investment and construction cost of photovoltaic, and the cost of unit capacity photovoltaic is set to 3 million yuan / MW in the present application, and it is calculated into daily cost based on the equivalent coefficient. From the table, it can be seen that the operating cost of each interest subject decreases to different degrees after the photovoltaic is connected to the distribution network. The active distribution system operator (ADSO) reduces the external power purchase cost by integrating the photovoltaic output of each producer and consumer PCU, and the overall cost decreases by 8.84%. After connecting photovoltaic, each producer and consumer PCU reduces its dependence on ADSO for power supply through self-generation and self-use and surplus electricity on the network, and enhances its bargaining power, so the cost reduction of each producer and consumer PCU is much higher than that of ADSO. The photovoltaic (PV) capacity of PCU1 and PCU4 is higher because the load level in this area is relatively high, and the energy storage and AM measures can effectively improve the photovoltaic consumption capacity of the distribution network.

[0135] To analyze the influence of energy storage and AM measures on the PVHC evaluation results, the present application quantitatively compares and analyzes the four scenarios (combination of energy storage and AM measures) shown in Table 2. The cost composition of ADSO under different scenarios is shown in Table 3, and the pareto optimal solution of each scenario is shown in Table 4.

[0141]
[0142] Scenario 1 does not consider any carrying capacity improvement measures, so its PVHC evaluation result is low, and the light rejection rate is high.
[0143] Scenario 2 only considers energy storage for evaluation. Compared with scenario 1, the application of energy storage reduces the operation cost by 3.41%, the light rejection rate decreases by 9.88%, and the PVHC evaluation result increases by 8.82%. This shows that energy storage effectively improves the system economy and energy utilization by smoothing the photovoltaic output fluctuation. However, the voltage satisfaction cost of scenario 2 reaches the highest value of the fourth scenario, indicating that the voltage quality of the distribution network is poor at this time. Therefore, although the application of energy storage alone improves the economy and consumption capacity compared with scenario 1, it still has limited improvement on the light rejection rate without the support of AM.
[0144] Scenario 3 only considers AM for evaluation. AM measures can improve the stability of the power grid voltage, and the light rejection rate decreases by 9.36% compared with scenario 1. However, due to the lack of energy storage for power fluctuation smoothing, the PVHC evaluation result only increases by 1.1%, and the operation cost increases by 0.56%. This shows that AM measures can reduce the light rejection rate through voltage management, but its improvement of carrying capacity is still limited by the system's ability to consume short-term photovoltaic output fluctuations.
[0145] Scenario 4 (the model proposed in the present application) considers both energy storage and AM. Compared with scenario 1, the operation cost decreases by 4.24%, the PVHC evaluation result increases by 10.2%, and the light rejection rate decreases by 23.05%. This result shows that the power buffering capacity of energy storage effectively amplifies the voltage regulation benefit of AM, and the two work together to significantly improve the performance boundary of single carrying capacity improvement strategy. Compared with scenario 2, scenario 4 has a 0.86% decrease in cost, a 1.4% increase in PVHC, and a 23.05% decrease in light rejection rate. This is because the AM measures optimize the energy storage output curve, reduce line losses, and reduce the voltage satisfaction cost. Therefore, the model proposed in the present application can reduce the operation cost and light rejection rate while maximizing the carrying capacity of distributed photovoltaic access to the distribution network.
