Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electrified railway traction power supply system and new energy access technology, specifically involving a method for assessing the compatibility of a photovoltaic energy storage system with the railway traction network. Background Technology
[0002] Electrified railway traction power supply systems generally adopt single-phase AC power, which has inherent limitations such as a single energy source, susceptibility to power quality problems, and large load fluctuations. Driven by the "dual carbon" goal, integrating photovoltaic and energy storage systems into the traction power supply system has become an effective way to achieve railway decarbonization. Photovoltaic and energy storage systems can provide clean electricity, smooth load fluctuations, and recover braking energy, playing an important role in improving system energy efficiency.
[0003] However, traditional traction power supply system architectures do not fully consider the access requirements of distributed energy sources such as photovoltaics and energy storage in their design and operation. This makes it difficult for photovoltaic-storage systems to meet the diverse requirements of flexible and efficient renewable energy consumption in different railway scenarios when actually connected to the grid. Current research mainly focuses on two directions: one is to optimize power quality by making partial improvements to the existing traction power supply system, such as adding compensation devices; the other is to propose new power supply system standards through architectural innovation. Although these studies have improved the local performance of the system, they have common shortcomings: they fail to systematically consider the differentiated needs of different railway scenarios, the compatibility between various photovoltaic-storage access topologies and specific railway scenarios is still unclear, and there is a lack of targeted evaluation systems and methods, making it difficult to select the optimal access scheme according to the characteristics of the scenario in actual engineering. This lack of adaptability evaluation methods restricts the accurate deployment and efficient utilization of photovoltaic-storage systems in the railway field. Especially when facing the complex needs of different railway scenarios, the lack of effective evaluation methods leads to resource waste and poor system performance.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish a scientific and systematic adaptability assessment method that can quantitatively analyze the adaptability of different photovoltaic-storage topologies in various railway scenarios, and provide a basis for decision-making for the planning, design and transformation of photovoltaic-storage systems for access to railway traction networks.

This system covers three dimensions: power quality, reliability, and economy. The railway scenarios include heavy-haul railways, conventional railways, and high-speed railways; the analysis of operating characteristics and power supply requirements is based on the differentiated characteristics of various scenarios in terms of traction load, power demand, and power quality requirements; various photovoltaic-storage access topologies include: three-phase high-voltage access, three-phase medium-voltage access, single-phase access, two-phase access, in-phase combined access, in-phase through access, and DC access, such as...

[0037] The normalized quantized values of the performance indicators of each optical-storage topology were obtained through calculation, as shown in Table 2: Table 2 Normalized Quantitative Values of Photovoltaic-Storage Topology Indicators
[0038] S2: Based on the Bayesian optimal and worst-case method, and by combining the judgments of multiple experts, the comprehensive weight of each indicator in the suitability evaluation index system is determined. S2 includes the following steps: S21: Define the set of indicators for assessing the compatibility of photovoltaic and energy storage systems, including... m Three different evaluation indicators, denoted as... ; S22: Identify the optimal indicator from the set of indicators through multiple experts. With worst indicators The optimal and worst comparison vectors are constructed, and the elements in these vectors are represented using a scale of 1 to 9. Relative importance; The optimal comparison vector and the worst comparison vector are represented as follows:

[0041] in, For the first n The expert's first j The weight of each indicator The weight of the most important indicator The weight given to the least important indicator. This is the absolute error; S24: Based on the Bayesian model, and considering the needs of the photovoltaic storage system to access different railway scenarios, the individual weight vectors of all experts are integrated to obtain a global comprehensive weight vector, ensuring that the weight allocation can reflect the actual needs of each scenario. The comprehensive weight vector for:
[0042]
[0043] in, For the first j Individual weight vectors of each indicator, This is the consistency adjustment coefficient. This represents the consensus coefficient among experts.
[0044] S3: Based on the comprehensive weight of each indicator, a compromise solution is adopted to quantitatively evaluate and rank the adaptability of various optical-storage access topologies, and determine the optimal adaptable topology for a specific railway scenario.
[0045] S3 includes the following steps: S31: Construct the initial decision matrix Its row corresponds k Photovoltaic storage topology, corresponding to the column m Evaluation indicators Representing the i The topology in the first j The values of each indicator; S32: Normalize the initial decision matrix, and multiply the normalized decision matrix by the comprehensive weight vector to obtain the weighted decision matrix. ; S33: Determine the ideal solution and the anti-ideal solution from the weighted decision matrix; The ideal solution With anti-ideal solution Represented as:

[0050]
[0051]

[0053] In Implementation Case 1 of this invention, taking the Shenchi South to Xibaipo section of the Shuohuang Railway as an example, this line is approximately 300 kilometers long, with an annual transport volume exceeding 300 million tons and an average of over 40 pairs of trains running daily, representing a typical heavy-haul railway scenario. The BBWM method was used to determine the index weights, and five experts were invited to participate in the evaluation and scoring to obtain the optimal and worst comparison vectors: ,
[0054] The comprehensive weights are calculated by solving the hierarchical Bayesian model to obtain the index. C 1 to C The weighting results for 5 are: 0.1602, 0.3587, 0.1099, 0.2232, 0.1479, indicating that reliability is the most important indicator and cost is the least important, which is consistent with expectations. The Credal ranking of the indicators for heavy-haul railways is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the Credal ranking values among all indicators reached 0.8 or higher.
[0055] Based on this, and using Table 2 and the MARCOS compatibility evaluation method, the compatibility ranking from highest to lowest is shown in Table 3: three-phase high-voltage access, three-phase medium-voltage access, DC access, in-phase continuous access, in-phase combined access, two-phase access, and single-phase access. Heavy-haul railways, due to the large impact power during train startup and climbing, have extremely high requirements for the reliability and stability of the power supply system. Three-phase high-voltage access is suitable for long-distance, high-power power supply with low loss; medium-voltage access has low cost and low maintenance difficulty, making it suitable for medium-scale photovoltaic and energy storage systems. Two-phase and single-phase access have limited transmission capacity, making it difficult to meet high-power demands, resulting in low compatibility and risks of insufficient power supply and transportation interruptions.

[0057] In the second implementation case of this invention, taking the Hujiaying-Dazhou section of the Xiangyu Railway as an example, its total length is approximately 255 kilometers, its operating speed is 160 km / h, and it operates more than 49 pairs of trains daily, representing a typical conventional-speed railway scenario. The BBWM method was used to determine the index weights, and five experts were invited to participate in the evaluation and scoring to obtain the optimal and worst comparison vectors: ,
[0058] The comprehensive weights are calculated by solving the hierarchical Bayesian model to obtain the index. C 1 to C The weighting results for 5 are: 0.1433, 0.0985, 0.1785, 0.2272, 0.3525, indicating that cost is the most important indicator and negative sequence current is the least important indicator, which is consistent with expectations. The Credal ranking of the indicators for conventional speed railways is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the Credal ranking values among all indicators reached 0.8 or higher.
[0059] Based on this, and using Table 2 and the MARCOS compatibility evaluation method, the compatibility ranking from highest to lowest is shown in Table 4: three-phase medium-voltage access, three-phase high-voltage access, two-phase access, single-phase access, in-phase combined access, in-phase continuous access, and DC access. Conventional railways have stable power supply demands, prioritizing continuous and stable power supply over rapid response. Three-phase medium-voltage access, due to its low cost and high flexibility, meets the needs of conventional railways; while high-voltage access is efficient, its high cost and maintenance difficulty limit its compatibility. In-phase and DC access have poor compatibility due to the difficulty of modification.

[0061] In the third implementation case of this invention, taking the Bengbu South to Xuzhou East section of the Beijing-Shanghai Railway as an example, its total length is approximately 156 kilometers, its operating speed is 350 km / h, and it operates more than 150 pairs of trains daily, representing a typical high-speed railway scenario. The BBWM method is used to determine the index weights, and five experts are invited to participate in the evaluation and scoring to obtain the optimal and worst comparison vectors: ,
[0062] The comprehensive weights are calculated by solving the hierarchical Bayesian model to obtain the index. C 1 to C The weighting results for 5 are: 0.2762, 0.0796, 0.1263, 0.3249, 0.1930, indicating that reliability is the most important indicator and negative sequence current is the least important indicator, which is consistent with expectations. The Credal ranking of the indicators for high-speed railways is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the Credal ranking values among all indicators reached 0.8 or higher.
[0063] Based on this, and using Table 2 and the MARCOS compatibility evaluation method, the compatibility ranking from highest to lowest is shown in Table 5: three-phase high-voltage access, three-phase medium-voltage access, DC access, in-phase continuous access, in-phase combined access, single-phase access, and two-phase access. High-speed railways experience large and rapid load fluctuations, placing extremely high demands on power supply response and power quality. Three-phase high-voltage access offers high efficiency and excellent power quality, making it suitable for high-speed railways; medium-voltage access has low cost but slightly lower efficiency. Single-phase and two-phase accesses have small capacities, making it difficult to meet load demands, resulting in low compatibility and potential power shortages that affect train operation.
