Description

Technical Field

[0002] Existing single-phase cascaded photovoltaic (PV) systems typically employ cascaded H-bridge multilevel converters (H-bridges) as their core power conversion architecture. This involves independently connecting PV modules to the DC side of each H-bridge module and then connecting them in series on the AC side to form a multilevel voltage output. This output is then filtered by a grid-connected filter inductor before being connected to the power grid. This structure effectively improves system efficiency and power density, thus demonstrating promising application prospects.

[0003] However, in actual operation, the aforementioned topology suffers from power imbalances due to the difficulty in maintaining consistent light intensity and ambient temperature across photovoltaic modules. To address issues such as overmodulation of the H-bridge modules, existing technologies have proposed solutions such as improved modulation strategies or the addition of energy storage modules. However, improved modulation strategies have inherent limitations in their ability to suppress overmodulation; while adding energy storage modules presents challenges such as complex system structure, high cost, and difficulty in control. Therefore, how to manage power imbalance economically and effectively while ensuring system performance has become a pressing technical challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] In actual operation, the power generation of existing single-phase cascaded photovoltaic (PV) systems is inconsistent among PV modules connected to the DC side of the H-bridge module due to factors such as ambient temperature, solar radiation intensity, PV module shading area, and module consistency. When the power generation of each PV module differs significantly, the AC output voltage amplitude of the H-bridge module connected to the PV module with higher power generation is larger due to the series topology, posing a risk of over-modulation. Over-modulation will prevent the H-bridge module from fully transmitting the power generated by the PV modules to the grid, causing grid-connected current distortion, and in severe cases, even causing the PV grid-connected inverter to shut down.

[0020] Based on this, the present invention provides a power coordination control method and device for a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system, which can simplify the hardware architecture and maintain system performance, thereby solving the problems of complex system structure and high overmodulation risk, and thus reducing the overmodulation risk caused by photovoltaic power imbalance.

[0021] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system disclosed in this invention will first be described in detail. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 1 The diagram shows a topology of a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system, which may include, in sequence, a cascaded converter, a photovoltaic module unit, an isolated multi-port DC-DC converter unit, and a battery unit.

[0022] The photovoltaic module unit includes N photovoltaic modules; the cascaded converter includes N first bidirectional DC-AC converters and a grid-connected filter inductor; the isolated multi-port DC-AC converter includes N second bidirectional DC-AC converters, a third bidirectional DC-AC converter and a multi-winding transformer.

[0023] The AC sides of N first bidirectional DC-AC converters are connected in series and then connected to the power grid via a grid-connected filter inductor; the DC sides of the N first bidirectional DC-AC converters are respectively connected to N photovoltaic modules; the DC ports of the N second bidirectional DC-AC converters are respectively connected to the N photovoltaic modules; the AC ports of the N second bidirectional DC-AC converters are connected via a multi-winding transformer; the DC port of the third bidirectional DC-AC converter is connected to a battery cell; the AC port of the third bidirectional DC-AC converter is connected to a multi-winding transformer.

After their AC sides are connected in series, they are filtered by a grid-connected filter inductor L. g Voltage source V connected to the power grid g Each first bidirectional DC-AC converter is connected to its corresponding photovoltaic module via a capacitor (C). 11 C 21 ...) connection. The DC side of the photovoltaic module is connected one-to-one with the DC side of each of the N first bidirectional DC-AC converters in the cascaded converter. Isolated multi-port DC-DC converter ( Figure 1 The multi-port isolated DC-DC converter in the middle) uses a capacitor (C) 12 C 22 ...) connected to photovoltaic modules; the isolated multi-port DC-DC converter also includes: N second bidirectional DC-AC converters and corresponding L1, L2...Ln connected thereto, as well as a multi-winding transformer L... B The AC ports of each of the N second bidirectional DC-AC converters are connected to the multi-winding transformer LB, and the DC ports are connected one-to-one with the aforementioned N photovoltaic modules.

[0025] Furthermore, as a concrete example, Figure 2 A topology diagram of a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system in a preferred embodiment is shown. Each first bidirectional DC-AC converter in the cascaded converter can include four switching transistors (such as S...). 11 S 12 S 13 S 14 The H-bridge circuit unit consists of four switching transistors (such as S). Each second bidirectional DC-AC converter in an isolated multi-port DC-DC converter can include a second switching transistor consisting of four switching transistors (such as S). 15 S 16 S 17 S 18 The H-bridge circuit unit consists of N second bidirectional DC-AC converters, which are not directly connected in series but are each connected to L1, L2...Lr via Lr. n The third bidirectional DC-AC converter in the battery cell consists of T1, T2, T3, and T4.

[0026] The following section provides a detailed description of a power coordination control method for a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention. (See also...) Figure 3The diagram shows a power coordination control method for a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system. This method is applied to the single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system in the above embodiment. The method can be executed by electronic equipment and mainly includes the following steps S302 to S306: Step S302: Determine the modulation factor of the cascade converter when the power of the battery cell is zero, based on the reference power and DC side voltage of the photovoltaic module unit and the reference amplitude of the output voltage of the cascade converter.

[0027] The modulation factor essentially reflects the power distribution ratio and voltage modulation relationship of each converter unit, and its value directly affects whether the system needs battery intervention to balance the power.

[0028] In one embodiment, the modulation factor is calculated using the following formula: ;(Formula 1) in, Z 1i The modulation factor is represented by 1 ≤ i ≤ n; P * PVi This represents the reference power of the i-th photovoltaic module; P * PV This represents the sum of the reference power of N photovoltaic modules; V * C This indicates the reference amplitude of the output voltage of the cascaded converter; V PVi This represents the DC-side voltage of the i-th photovoltaic module.

[0029] Step S304: Determine the magnitude of the modulation factor and the target threshold, and determine the magnitude of the state of charge of the battery cell and the state of charge threshold range, and determine the comparison result.

[0030] In some implementations, the output power of the H-bridge module under power imbalance conditions can be increased by modifying its modulation strategy. However, its limitation is that the modulation factor of the H-bridge module can only be increased to a maximum value of 4 / π. When the modulation factor exceeds 4 / π, the H-bridge module will again face the overmodulation problem. Therefore, the aforementioned target threshold can be a predetermined fixed threshold, such as 4 / π.

[0031] In another implementation, the target threshold can be a dynamic threshold, which can be optimized and adjusted in real time by a threshold prediction model to adapt to dynamic environmental conditions. The threshold prediction model can be trained and adjusted based on historical operating data or real-time environmental parameters to generate a dynamic target threshold, thereby improving the accuracy of mode switching and system efficiency.

[0032] Threshold prediction models (such as machine learning models, deep learning models, or reinforcement learning models) can automatically adjust mode switching thresholds by learning from historical operational data or real-time environmental parameters, making the system more adaptable to dynamic environments. As a concrete example, the specific implementation of obtaining dynamic thresholds may include the following steps: (S301) Data Acquisition and Input: Acquire multi-source data as input to the threshold prediction model. This multi-source data may include historical photovoltaic power generation (e.g., P*PVi), DC side voltage (VPVi), battery state of charge (SOC) value, environmental parameters (e.g., irradiance, temperature), and historical records of operating modes. This data can be acquired in real time from system sensors or monitoring platforms to generate a time-series dataset.

[0033] (S302) Algorithm selection and training; Supervised learning processes can use regression models (such as support vector machines or neural networks) to train threshold prediction models. Inputs can include current environmental data and system states, with the output being the optimized threshold. Training data can come from historical best-case scenarios, where "best" is defined by metrics such as system efficiency and battery life. Furthermore, reinforcement learning processes more suitable for dynamic environments can be included, specifically implemented through trial-and-error learning optimization strategies. After training, the model can be deployed in electronic devices or the controller of a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system to achieve real-time threshold updates.

[0034] In addition, the state of charge threshold range can be dynamically optimized by combining external parameters. For example, in high-temperature environments, the upper limit of the state of charge threshold, SOCmax, can be lowered to prevent the battery from overheating, or in cloudy weather, the lower limit of the state of charge threshold, SOCmin, can be increased to ensure backup power.

[0035] Step S306: Based on the comparison results, determine the corresponding power coordination control strategy to control the operating mode of the single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system; the power coordination control strategy includes: the operating mode of the photovoltaic module unit and the operating mode of the battery unit.

[0036] In this embodiment, the relationship between the modulation factor and the target threshold, and the relationship between the battery cell's state of charge (SOC) and the upper limit of the battery cell's SOC can be determined. max The relationship between the magnitudes, and the determination of the State of Charge (SOC) of the battery cell and the lower limit of the SOC of the battery cell. min Based on the magnitude relationship and the above judgment results, the single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system is operated according to mode I, mode II, mode III and mode IV respectively.

[0037] (Mode I) When the comparison result is that the modulation factor is not greater than the target threshold and the state of charge of the battery cell is less than the upper limit of the state of charge threshold range, the power coordination control strategy is: the photovoltaic module cell operates in maximum power point tracking mode and the battery cell operates in charging mode.

[0038] When the photovoltaic module unit operates in the mode of exiting maximum power point tracking mode, the reference power of the i-th photovoltaic module is... P * PVi The calculation formula is: ;(Formula 2) in, P * PV V represents the sum of the reference power of N photovoltaic modules; pvi V represents the DC-side voltage of the i-th photovoltaic module; * C This indicates the reference amplitude of the output voltage of the cascaded converter.

[0039] Figure 4 This embodiment provides an equivalent circuit diagram of a battery cell operating in charging mode within a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system. When the battery cell operates in charging mode, the reference power of the battery cell is... P * B The calculation formula is: ;(Formula 3) in, P * PV This represents the sum of the reference power of N photovoltaic modules; P * PVmax Z represents the reference power of the photovoltaic module with the highest power generation. 1max This represents the modulation factor of the bidirectional DC-AC converter with the highest power generation in the cascaded converter when the power of the battery cell is zero.

[0040] (Mode II) When the comparison result is that the modulation factor is not greater than the target threshold and the state of charge of the battery cell is not less than the upper limit of the state of charge threshold range, the power coordination control strategy is: the photovoltaic module cell operates in maximum power point tracking mode and the battery cell operates in exit system operation mode.

[0041] Figure 5 This embodiment provides an equivalent circuit diagram of a battery cell in a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system when it exits system operation. Correspondingly, when the battery cell operates in the exit system operation mode, the reference power of the battery cell is... P* B =0.

[0042] (Mode III) When the comparison result is that the modulation factor is greater than the target threshold and the state of charge of the battery cell is greater than the lower limit of the state of charge threshold range, the power coordination control strategy is: the photovoltaic module cell operates in maximum power point tracking mode and the battery cell operates in discharge mode.

[0043] Figure 6 This embodiment provides an equivalent circuit diagram of a battery cell operating in discharge mode within a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system. When the battery cell operates in discharge mode, the reference power of the battery cell is... P * B The calculation formula is: ;(Formula 4) in, P * PV This represents the sum of the reference power of N photovoltaic modules; P * PVmax Z represents the reference power of the photovoltaic module with the highest power generation. 1max This represents the modulation factor of the bidirectional DC-AC converter with the highest power generation in the cascaded converter when the power of the battery cell is zero.

[0044] (Mode IV) When the comparison result is that the modulation factor is greater than the target threshold and the state of charge of the battery cell is not greater than the lower limit of the state of charge threshold range, the power coordination control strategy is: the working mode of the photovoltaic module cell is to exit the maximum power point tracking mode, and the working mode of the battery cell is to exit the system operation mode.

[0045] In the above embodiments, controlling the photovoltaic module to operate in maximum power point tracking mode and controlling the photovoltaic module to exit maximum power point tracking mode are achieved by a cascaded converter; controlling the battery cell to operate in charging mode, controlling the battery cell to exit system operation, and controlling the battery cell to operate in discharging mode are achieved by an isolated multi-port DC-DC converter.

[0046] In an isolated multi-port DC-DC converter, the N second bidirectional DC-AC converters connected to N photovoltaic modules have equal reference power. That is, the reference power of each second bidirectional DC-AC converter is equal.

[0047] As a concrete example, see Figure 7 The flowchart shown represents a power control method for a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system in a preferred embodiment. This method may include the following steps: Step X1: Calculate the power output of the cascaded converter when the battery cell power is zero. N Modulation factor of a bidirectional DC-AC converter Z 1i (1≤ i ≤ n The calculation formula is: (Formula 1) in, P * PVi Indicates the first i Reference power of each photovoltaic module P * PV Indicates all n The sum of the reference power of each photovoltaic module, V * C This indicates the reference amplitude of the output voltage of the cascaded converter. V PVi Indicates the first i DC-side voltage of each photovoltaic module; Step X2: Determine the modulation factor Z 1i The relationship between the value of 4 / π and the value of π is used to determine the state of charge (SOC) of the battery cell and the upper limit of the SOC for battery cell operation. max The relationship between the magnitudes of the states of charge (SOC) and the lower limit of the battery cell's state of charge (SOC) is used to determine the relative values ​​of the SOC and the battery cell's state of charge. min Based on the above judgment results and considering the magnitude relationship, the single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system operates according to Mode I, Mode II, Mode III, and Mode IV, respectively: Step X2.1: If the modulation factor Z 1i ≤4 / π, SOC <SOC max The single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system operates in mode I, controlling the photovoltaic modules to operate in maximum power point tracking mode and controlling the battery cells to operate in charging mode.

[0048] Step X2.2: If Z 1i ≤4 / π, SOC≥SOC max The single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system operates in Mode II, controlling the photovoltaic modules to operate in maximum power point tracking mode and controlling the battery cells to exit system operation.

[0049] Step X2.3: If Z 1i >4 / π, SOC>SOC minThe single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system operates in mode III, controlling the photovoltaic modules to operate in maximum power point tracking mode and controlling the battery cells to operate in discharge mode.

[0050] Step X2.4: If Z 1i >4 / π, SOC≤SOC min The single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system operates in mode IV, controlling the photovoltaic modules to exit maximum power point tracking mode and controlling the battery cells to exit system operation.

[0051] In summary, this invention provides a power coordination control method for a single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system. At the control strategy level, this method establishes four operating modes based on dual criteria of modulation factor and battery state of charge (SOC). This strategy can dynamically adjust the charging and discharging power of the battery or the output power of the photovoltaic system, thereby intelligently stabilizing the modulation factor of each H-bridge within a safe range, thus avoiding overmodulation and ensuring the autonomous safety management of the battery. Furthermore, without excessively increasing system complexity and manufacturing costs, it can reliably and effectively solve the problem of unbalanced photovoltaic power.

The judgment module is used to judge the magnitude of the modulation factor and the target threshold, and to judge the magnitude of the state of charge of the battery cell and the range of the state of charge threshold, and to determine the comparison result. The control strategy determination module is used to determine the corresponding power coordination control strategy based on the comparison results, so as to control the operating mode of the single-phase cascaded photovoltaic-storage hybrid system.
