Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power system optimal scheduling, in particular to a virtual power plant source-load interaction optimal scheduling model and solving algorithm fusing a low-carbon response mechanism. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the traditional distribution network scheduling model, distributed power sources (such as photovoltaic, wind power), energy storage systems and loads are usually regulated as independent units, lacking a collaborative optimization mechanism based on carbon emissions and power fluctuations. For example, CN110323785B points out that the interactive load in the prior art can only participate in scheduling through simple peak-valley transfer, and is not linked with the charging and discharging strategy of energy storage and carbon trading cost, resulting in that when photovoltaic output is excessive, the load cannot be effectively guided to be consumed or the energy storage cannot be effectively charged, and the light rejection rate is as high as 15%-20%. The traditional model does not introduce a dynamic carbon emission factor, and cannot reflect the real-time influence of energy structure changes on carbon emissions. For example, when the proportion of renewable energy in a region increases, the carbon emission intensity per unit of electricity should decrease, but the existing model usually uses a fixed carbon emission coefficient, resulting in that the scheduling result deviates from the actual low-carbon target.

[0003] The carbon trading mechanism is separated from the scheduling decision, and the carbon quota allocation and price fluctuation are not included in the optimization target. As described in CN110323785B, the existing method does not consider the influence of carbon cost on power generation combination, and high-carbon thermal power may still be preferentially scheduled under the economic target, which cannot achieve the "double carbon" target.

[0004] Non-convex non-linear functions (such as energy storage life attenuation model, carbon trading cost function) in the distribution network scheduling model cause the traditional algorithms (such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm) to easily fall into local optimum, and the solving time is long. For example, when CN110323785B uses a multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve a distribution network model containing 19 nodes, the time consumption of a single iteration is more than 30 minutes, which is difficult to meet the real-time scheduling demand.

[0005] The coding mode of mixed variables (continuous power value and discrete device switching state) is single, and the traditional binary coding cannot efficiently process continuous variables (such as wind power, energy storage SOC), resulting in that the algorithm search space is redundant and the convergence speed is slow. The prediction error of photovoltaic / wind power output usually reaches 10%-15%, and the existing model relies on fixed parameters to correct the error without establishing a "data acquisition-prediction-optimization-feedback" closed loop. For example, when the average photovoltaic prediction error in CN110323785B is more than 5%, the LSTM model parameters are not dynamically adjusted, resulting in that the subsequent scheduling strategy continuously deviates from the actual situation.

[0006] The load side response lags behind, and the regulation strategy of industrial and residential loads is not dynamically adjusted according to the real-time carbon emission intensity. For example, commercial loads may still use high-carbon thermal power during the photovoltaic low valley period, and cannot fully utilize low-carbon power. SUMMARY

[0007] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art above, the purpose of the present application is to propose a virtual power plant source-load interaction optimization scheduling model and solving algorithm based on low-carbon response, aiming to solve the blank of the prior art in low-carbon scheduling, source-load-storage depth interaction, algorithm efficiency and dynamic response, and to provide a systematic solution for the low-carbonization and intelligent operation of the distribution network.

The coupling mechanism of dynamic carbon emission factors and energy costs, combined with the economic incentives of carbon trading, enables the virtual power plant to dynamically optimize power generation combinations and load strategies in response to carbon price fluctuations and changes in energy structure, thereby achieving a simultaneous reduction in operating costs while achieving the "double carbon" goal and economic benefits.

[0112] The bidirectional reinforcement of renewable energy consumption and system stability significantly improves the system's ability to accommodate intermittent power sources through a "source-storage-load" collaborative interaction mechanism: the energy storage system responds in real time to power fluctuations, charging when there is excess photovoltaic / wind power and discharging during peak load periods, thereby mitigating power supply and demand imbalances; industrial, commercial, and residential flexible loads are classified and regulated (such as industrial peak-shifting electricity and residential smart electricity control), forming a "peak clipping and valley filling" collaborative chain with energy storage, effectively reducing the phenomenon of wind and light curtailment, and enhancing the efficiency and stability of the power system in accommodating clean energy and reducing the risk of power grid fluctuations.

[0113] The balanced optimization of intelligent scheduling and user experience significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of multi-objective optimization (operating costs, wind and light curtailment, and user satisfaction) through a hybrid algorithm that combines genetic algorithms and commercial solvers, mixed coding, and "global-local" collaborative search, ensuring the real-time generation of high-quality scheduling schemes. The "prediction-optimization-feedback" closed-loop mechanism, combined with real-time data acquisition and error correction, enables the system to dynamically adapt to changes in power output, load demand, and carbon prices; the user satisfaction model based on the analytic hierarchy process considers both power supply reliability and user experience during load regulation, achieving a dynamic balance between system optimization and user demand, and promoting the upgrading of virtual power plants towards low-carbon, efficient, and user-friendly.

At the same time, corresponding coding conversion and genetic operation rules are designed to ensure that continuous variables and discrete variables can co-evolve during the operation of the genetic algorithm. S313. Multi-objective transformation into a single objective: Multi-objective functions are transformed into a single objective function by weighting with preference factors.

To improve convergence, an elite retention strategy is introduced. In each generation of evolution, the best individual in the current population is retained and directly enters the next generation, avoiding the loss of the optimal solution. Simultaneously, an adaptive mutation operator is used, with the mutation probability adjusted according to the population's fitness variance, as shown in the formula: ,in It is the basic mutation probability. It is an adjustment factor. It is the maximum fitness variance; When the fitness variance of the population is small, increase the mutation probability to expand the search range and avoid the algorithm getting stuck in local optima; when the fitness variance is large, decrease the mutation probability to speed up the convergence speed and improve the algorithm efficiency.

Real-time updates and closed-loop construction; Update the dynamic carbon emission factor by collecting data in real time from distributed power generation output, energy storage system SOC, flexible load power and carbon market price through smart meters and sensors. Input the collected data into the multiple linear regression model in S122 and update the model parameters through real-time data to dynamically adjust the carbon emission intensity per unit of power generation. The closed-loop optimization process uses an LSTM neural network, taking historical light intensity, wind speed, and load curves as inputs, and outputs predicted wind / solar power output and load demand for future periods. Based on the prediction results, the hybrid solution algorithm of S3 is called to generate a scheduling plan. The objective function is the multi-objective optimization model of S2, and the constraints include power balance, unit ramp rate, and energy storage SOC limit. The actual output is compared with the predicted value to calculate the error. S412. Prediction Error Correction: Statistically analyze the prediction errors of photovoltaic / wind power. If the mean of the prediction error of photovoltaic / wind power is equal to 0, it indicates that there is a bias in the model. Use the random forest algorithm to train historical error data, generate compensation terms to correct systematic errors, and superimpose the error compensation terms onto the original prediction values ​​to obtain the corrected power output prediction. Set a deviation tolerance in the scheduling model to avoid constraint violations due to prediction errors. S413. Scheduling strategy adjustment; S414.

Single objective function in the next iteration When the rate of change is less than 1%, the algorithm is considered to have converged, and the optimal scheduling scheme is output.
