Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wind power technology, and specifically to a method and system for maximizing wind energy utilization in wind farms equipped with distributed energy storage. Background Technology
[0002] As a core pillar of the renewable energy system, wind power's large-scale, efficient grid-connected operation and its increasing penetration rate in the power system place higher technical demands on grid stability. However, the inherent intermittency and strong randomness of wind energy lead to significant fluctuations in wind farm output power, posing a severe challenge to grid power balance and power quality. Further complicating matters, in large wind farms, the wake effect between multiple wind turbines can trigger significant cascading attenuation, resulting in a 30-40% reduction in downstream inflow wind speed, further restricting the overall power generation capacity of the wind farm. Current technological systems face three core challenges: First, traditional wind farms typically operate in a conservative, power-limited mode with a safety margin when responding to grid dispatch commands. Especially during low-load periods, a significant amount of wind energy is wasted because it cannot be effectively stored. Second, traditional centralized energy storage systems suffer from limited response speed and insufficient flexibility, failing to meet the rapid dynamic response requirements of wind turbines and hindering rapid and accurate power compensation. Third, existing methods often fail to fully consider the wake effect on the overall output of the wind farm and treat wind speed as a linear, invariant system, resulting in the inability to maximize wind energy utilization. Therefore, maximizing wind energy utilization in wind farms has become a critical technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

This invention establishes a problem model for wind farms equipped with distributed energy storage. By combining the rapid response characteristics of the energy storage system, it enables optimal energy management of wind farms under different operating conditions. This overcomes the limitations of traditional centralized control and the technical bottleneck of traditional wind farms operating at reduced capacity to mitigate power fluctuations and thus wasting wind energy. By real-time monitoring of the aerodynamic parameters of each wind turbine and the SOC status of the energy storage system, a collaborative optimization method for the operating characteristics of the distributed energy storage system and wind turbines is constructed. This achieves a dynamic balance between wind energy capture efficiency and grid dispatch requirements, thereby improving the overall operating efficiency of the wind farm and the level of wind power absorption.

[0147] To verify the method for maximizing wind energy utilization in wind farms with distributed energy storage in this embodiment, the method of this embodiment (energy storage-based active wake control) is compared with traditional control methods (including active wake control and greedy control). Experimental results under power compensation mode are compared with those of existing methods. Figure 3 As shown, experimental results in low-power command mode and existing methods are compared, for example... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the experimental results in power smoothing mode and existing methods are compared, for example... Figure 6 As shown.

However, the power output fluctuation of active wake control is still relatively significant, affecting the tracking accuracy of grid dispatch commands. The method in this embodiment (energy storage-based active wake control) triggers the power compensation mode of the energy storage system and controls the discharge of the energy storage system to smooth out power fluctuations, thereby maximizing power point tracking. Figure 4 It is evident that under low-power command mode, the power generation from active wake control far exceeds the power generation required by TSO, resulting in a significant waste of wind resources. Through... Figure 5 It is known that active wake control requires a significant reduction in wind turbine output under low-power commands to meet grid dispatch requirements, resulting in large power fluctuations. Greedy control also exhibits large power fluctuations when tracking grid commands. However, the method in this embodiment (energy storage-based active wake control) controls the energy storage system to charge under low-power command mode. The energy storage absorbs redundant wind energy to reduce wind curtailment and improve wind energy utilization, achieving smooth power tracking and demonstrating superior control performance. Figure 6 It is known that when the system detects that the energy storage SOC value exceeds the optimal operating range, the wind turbine side operates at reduced capacity by dynamically adjusting the pitch angle and generator torque. However, the power fluctuation of active wake control is relatively large, while the method of this embodiment (energy storage active wake control) achieves the goal of smoothing power fluctuations by controlling the energy storage system to charge and discharge in small amplitudes, thus triggering the energy storage system to enter the power smoothing mode.
[0148] In summary, the wind energy utilization maximization method for wind farms equipped with distributed energy storage in this embodiment achieves optimal energy management of the wind farm under different operating conditions by establishing a wake coupling optimization model for the wind farm equipped with distributed energy storage and combining it with the rapid response characteristics of the energy storage system. This method overcomes the limitations of traditional centralized control by real-time monitoring of the aerodynamic parameters of each wind turbine and the SOC status of the energy storage system, and constructs a collaborative optimization method for the operating characteristics of the distributed energy storage system and the wind turbine units. This achieves a dynamic balance between wind energy capture efficiency and grid dispatch requirements, effectively improving the overall operating efficiency and wind power absorption level of the wind farm. It can solve problems such as low-power operation of the wind farm, slow energy storage response, and insufficient consideration of wake effects. By constructing a wake coupling optimization model for the wind farm equipped with distributed energy storage and solving its problem model, the wind energy capture and grid acceptance efficiency can be effectively improved.
