Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of robot control technology, specifically to a method and system for peak shaving using aquifer thermal storage based on wind power curtailment. Background Technology
[0002] As the global energy structure accelerates its transformation towards cleaner and lower-carbon energy, wind power, as an important form of renewable energy, has seen its installed capacity and power generation share grow rapidly. However, the inherent intermittency and strong volatility of wind energy resources often make it difficult to match wind power output with the grid load curve. During periods when the grid's absorption capacity is insufficient, transmission channels are limited, or system peak-shaving resources are scarce, "wind curtailment" measures must be implemented to ensure the safe and stable operation of the grid, resulting in a significant waste of clean energy. At the same time, socio-economic development and changes in electricity consumption patterns have led to a widening gap between peak and valley loads on the grid, making the demand for fast, flexible, and economical peak-shaving resources increasingly urgent.
[0003] Currently, power grid peak shaving mainly relies on traditional thermal power unit regulation, gas turbine start-up and shutdown, and emerging electrochemical energy storage. Traditional thermal power peak shaving has a slow response speed, low efficiency and increased emissions during low-load operation, which contradicts the goals of energy conservation and emission reduction. While gas turbine peak shaving is relatively flexible, its operating fuel costs are high and it is significantly affected by fluctuations in gas supply and prices. Electrochemical energy storage technology, represented by lithium-ion batteries, has a rapid response, but its cost remains high, its cycle life is limited, and it is constrained by energy density, making it more suitable for short-term, high-frequency power regulation and unable to meet large-scale, long-term peak shaving needs. Therefore, exploring an energy storage peak shaving technology that combines large-scale, long-cycle, and low-cost characteristics has become a key breakthrough urgently needed by the industry.
[0004] Aquifer thermal energy storage technology, as a large-scale seasonal energy storage method, utilizes the vast space and heat capacity of underground aquifers to inject and store thermal energy, which can then be extracted and used when needed. It boasts significant advantages such as large storage capacity, long service life, and low unit cost, theoretically providing a highly promising solution for absorbing fluctuating renewable energy. However, existing technologies for using aquifers for thermal energy storage are mostly concentrated in solar thermal storage or industrial waste heat recovery, exhibiting significant disconnect and inadequacy in synergistic coupling with wind power curtailment, failing to resolve the core contradiction between wind power absorption and grid peak shaving.

[0038] The LSTM model incorporating the attention mechanism specifically involves adding an attention weight layer to the hidden layer of the LSTM model, assigning different attention weights to different input parameters.
[0039] The system uses a preset first duration as a sliding window and uses historical user load data within the sliding window as training samples for training. The sliding window slides with a preset second duration as a step size, and the training samples are updated once each time it slides.

[0064] The technical solution of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments and specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solution of this application, rather than limitations thereof. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0065] Example 1
[0066] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment introduces a method for peak shaving using aquifer thermal storage based on wind power curtailment, including:
[0067] S1: Real-time synchronous acquisition of wind power curtailment data and aquifer status data, and preprocessing of the wind power curtailment data and aquifer status data; the wind power curtailment data includes real-time wind power data, load data and grid data; the aquifer status data includes aquifer parameters and real-time data of the thermal storage area;
[0068] Specifically, the real-time wind power data includes real-time curtailment, wind power installed capacity, wind power output fluctuation range, and curtailment duration; the load data includes user-side historical load data, real-time meteorological data, and holiday factors; the user-side historical load data is hourly load data for the past N months, where N is a preset number of months; the real-time meteorological data includes temperature, precipitation, and wind speed; the power grid data includes power grid peak-shaving instructions, power grid conventional heating power, power grid frequency target range, and maximum allowable load fluctuation value of the power grid.
[0069] In this embodiment, the parameters of the aquifer are obtained through geological exploration, including the aquifer thermal conductivity, porosity, effective thickness of the reservoir, permeability, and underground ambient temperature. The real-time data of the reservoir is obtained by deploying temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and capacity monitoring devices in the reservoir area of the aquifer to collect the reservoir temperature, reservoir pressure, and remaining reservoir capacity in real time. The deployment density of the sensors is determined according to the area of the reservoir, with at least 3 sets of sensors deployed per 1000m² to ensure that the real-time data of the reservoir covers the entire reservoir area, and the sensing error is controlled by β to ensure data accuracy.
[0070] The specific method for preprocessing the wind power curtailment data and aquifer status data is as follows: Kalman filtering is applied to the real-time wind power data to eliminate random noise; outlier detection and removal are performed on the aquifer status data to filter out interference; and the units and formats of the load data and grid data are standardized to ensure data format consistency.
[0071] S2: Based on the wind power curtailment data, an LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) network model incorporating an attention mechanism is used to calculate hourly load forecasts and update the LSTM model in real time. Specifically, the LSTM model incorporating an attention mechanism adds an attention weight layer to the hidden layers of the LSTM model, assigning different attention weights to different input parameters to focus on key influencing factors and reduce interference from irrelevant features. For example, the attention weight of the load is increased by 0.1 for every 1°C drop in winter temperature, and the attention weight of the load is adjusted to 1.2 times that of weekdays during holidays.
[0072] The hourly load forecast is calculated as follows: based on the input parameters, an LSTM model with an attention mechanism is used for sliding window training to obtain the hourly load forecast for the next day; the LSTM model with an attention mechanism not only improves the prediction accuracy of long sequences, but also reduces the prediction error.
[0073] The input parameters of the LSTM model include historical load data from the user side, real-time meteorological data, and holiday factors. The historical load data from the user side includes categorized load data such as residential load, commercial load, and industrial load. This historical load data is stored at an hourly granularity, and data from abnormal periods such as power outages and equipment failures is excluded to ensure data validity. The real-time meteorological data includes temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and sunshine duration. This real-time meteorological data is obtained from local meteorological stations or meteorological data platforms and updated at a preset frequency. The holiday factors are quantized using binary quantization.
[0074] Specifically, holidays are set to 1, and working days are set to 0; holidays include weekends; if the holidays are special holidays, such as Spring Festival and National Day, the holiday factor value is further refined, and special holidays are set to 2 to reflect the load differences of different holidays.
[0075] The specific method of the sliding window training is as follows: a preset first duration is used as the sliding window, and historical load data of the user side within the sliding window is used as training samples for training; the sliding window slides with a preset second duration as the step size, and the training samples are updated once each slide; in this embodiment, the preset first duration is 24 hours, and the preset second duration is 1 hour, to adapt to the daily cycle variation of the load; for example, for the characteristics of the morning and evening peak loads of residents, the sliding window training can enhance the prediction accuracy of the load during peak hours and stabilize the prediction error.
[0076] The LSTM model is updated as follows: A preset third time interval is used as the update interval. The real-time collected load data is compared with the hourly load forecast for the corresponding time period, and the root mean square error (RMSE) between the load data and the hourly load forecast for the corresponding time period is calculated. Based on the RMSE, the attention weights of the LSTM model are adjusted using a backpropagation algorithm. For example, when the RMSE between the actual load data and the hourly load forecast for the corresponding time period is greater than a preset error threshold, the attention weights of the corresponding meteorological data are increased to ensure that the LSTM model dynamically optimizes with load changes.
[0077] S3: Extract the real-time abandoned power and set the abandoned power threshold; based on the real-time abandoned power and the abandoned power threshold, make matching decisions on abandoned power, thermal storage and load supply;
[0078] Specifically, based on the minimum stable operating load of the power grid and the maximum daily thermal storage capacity of the aquifer, the power curtailment threshold is determined and the real-time power curtailment is extracted. For example, if the minimum stable load of the power grid in a certain area is 20MW and the maximum daily thermal storage capacity of the aquifer corresponds to a power curtailment of 15MW, then the power curtailment threshold is set to 5MW to ensure that the portion of the power curtailment exceeding the stable load of the power grid can be absorbed by thermal storage.
[0079] The specific method of the matching decision is as follows: if the real-time abandoned power is greater than or equal to the abandoned power threshold, then abandoned power consumption and thermal storage are carried out; if the real-time abandoned power is less than the abandoned power threshold, then thermal storage and load supply are carried out.
[0080] S4: Based on the aquifer state data and hourly load forecasts, and combined with the matching decision results, thermal storage control and heat release control are performed; if the matching result is power curtailment and thermal storage, then thermal storage control is performed; the specific method of thermal storage control is as follows:
[0081] The underground ambient temperature is obtained, and the temperature difference between the underground ambient temperature and the temperature of the thermal storage area is calculated, i.e., the underground ambient temperature minus the temperature of the thermal storage area; the thermal conductivity of the aquifer is calculated by measuring the aquifer core sample in the laboratory, and the thermal conductivity of the aquifer is multiplied by the dimensionless temperature difference to obtain the first product;
[0082] In this embodiment, the underground ambient temperature is obtained by drilling holes around the thermal storage area to deploy depth sensors and monitoring the temperature of the underground constant temperature layer for at least 30 consecutive days to obtain monitoring data; the average value of the monitoring data is calculated to obtain the underground ambient temperature.
[0083] Calculate the effective thickness of the thermal storage zone and obtain the porosity; multiply the effective thickness of the thermal storage zone and the porosity after removing the dimensions to obtain a second product; the effective thickness of the thermal storage zone is calculated as follows: by ground-penetrating radar exploration or core drilling analysis, the effective thickness of the thermal storage medium distribution is determined, and the thickness of rock layers without thermal storage medium is excluded to obtain the effective thickness of the thermal storage zone;
[0084] The heat loss rate is obtained by calculating the ratio of the first product to the second product. The heat loss rate reflects the proportion of heat loss from the heat storage area to the surrounding environment per unit time. When the temperature of the heat storage area is greater than the temperature of the underground environment, the heat loss rate is greater than 0.
[0085] The thermal storage power is calculated based on the real-time abandoned power, and the heat loss compensation power is calculated based on the thermal storage power.
[0086] Specifically, the remaining thermal storage capacity, specific heat capacity of the thermal storage medium, and allowable temperature rise of the thermal storage medium are obtained; the thermal storage power is less than or equal to the cumulative product of the remaining thermal storage capacity, specific heat capacity of the thermal storage medium, and allowable temperature rise of the thermal storage medium; the thermal storage power refers to the power input from the electric heating device to the aquifer, and its calculation method is as follows: determine the electrothermal conversion efficiency according to the type of electric heating device, and multiply the real-time abandoned power by the electrothermal conversion efficiency to obtain the thermal storage power;
[0087] The thermal compensation power is calculated as follows: obtain the historical heat loss compensation effect, and set the compensation coefficient according to the historical heat loss compensation effect; calculate the cumulative product of the heat loss rate, the thermal storage power and the compensation coefficient to obtain the thermal compensation power;
[0088] Specifically, the temperature fluctuation value of the thermal storage area is calculated, and a compensation coefficient is set based on the temperature fluctuation value; the compensation coefficient is positively correlated with the temperature fluctuation value to ensure that the compensation power covers the actual heat loss.
[0089] The initial thermal storage power is obtained, and the thermal compensation power is added to the initial thermal storage power to obtain the actual thermal storage power; the output current or voltage of the electrothermal conversion device is adjusted to control the thermal storage area to store heat with the actual thermal storage power, so as to improve the thermal storage efficiency of the aquifer thermal storage area; the adjustment process is smooth to avoid the impact of power change on the power grid or thermal storage device.
[0090] If the matching result is heat storage and load supply, then heat release control is performed; the specific method of heat release control is as follows:
[0091] The current heat storage capacity is calculated based on the temperature, volume, and specific heat capacity of the heat storage medium in the heat storage area, and the remaining heat storage capacity is calculated based on the current heat storage capacity; the remaining heat storage capacity is the difference between the remaining heat storage capacity and the current heat storage capacity, that is, the remaining heat storage capacity minus the current heat storage capacity.
[0092] Obtain the conventional heating power of the power grid, and calculate the load gap based on the conventional heating power of the power grid and the hourly load forecast; the load gap is the difference between the hourly load forecast and the conventional heating power of the power grid, that is, the hourly load forecast minus the conventional heating power of the power grid.
[0093] If the thermal storage capacity is greater than or equal to the load gap, the thermal storage capacity is converted into actual heat release power through the heat release device of the aquifer to supplement the load gap; the actual heat release power is dynamically adjusted according to the load gap to ensure supply and demand balance.
[0094] If the thermal storage capacity is less than the load gap, an auxiliary heating request is sent to the power grid dispatch center to call on the heating reserve capacity of conventional power sources such as thermal power units and gas turbines to fill the remaining load gap. At the same time, the load gap data is recorded for subsequent optimization of thermal storage strategies, such as raising the curtailment threshold or increasing thermal storage capacity.
[0095] S5: Receive the power grid peak shaving command; perform adaptive peak shaving control based on the peak shaving command and the results of the thermal storage control and heat release control, and calculate the result of the peak shaving control;
[0096] Upon receiving the power grid peak-shaving command, the peak-shaving type is determined; the peak-shaving type includes thermal storage peak-shaving and thermal release peak-shaving; the peak-shaving control specifically includes:
[0097] If the power grid peak-shaving command is thermal storage peak-shaving, then obtain the real-time maximum power curtailment; multiply the real-time maximum power curtailment by the electrothermal conversion efficiency to obtain the target thermal storage power;
[0098] The maximum thermal storage power of the aquifer is calculated based on the rated power of the electric heating device and the heat dissipation capacity of the aquifer. If the target thermal storage power is less than the maximum thermal storage power of the aquifer, a PID algorithm is used to adjust the actual thermal storage power to the target thermal storage power by controlling the electric heating device. Otherwise, the difference between the maximum thermal storage power of the aquifer and a preset safety threshold is calculated, i.e., the maximum thermal storage power of the aquifer minus the preset safety threshold, and a PID algorithm is used to adjust the actual thermal storage power to the difference by controlling the electric heating device.
[0099] If the power grid peak-shaving command is heat release peak-shaving, the maximum heat release power of the aquifer is determined based on the rated power of the heat release device and the maximum transmission capacity of the user-side heating network. If the maximum heat release power of the aquifer is greater than the load gap, a PID algorithm is used to adjust the actual heat release power to the load gap by regulating the flow rate and temperature of the heat exchanger. Otherwise, the difference between the maximum heat release power of the aquifer and the safety threshold is calculated, i.e., the maximum heat release power of the aquifer minus the safety threshold, and a PID algorithm is used to adjust the actual heat release power to the difference by regulating the flow rate and temperature of the heat exchanger.
[0100] Optionally, a peak-shaving response time parameter can be set. Regardless of the peak-shaving type, the response speed must be controlled by the peak-shaving response time parameter. The time from receiving the peak-shaving command to the power adjustment being completed should not exceed the peak-shaving response time parameter to avoid delaying the grid's peak-shaving opportunity. At the same time, during the adjustment process, the changes in actual thermal storage power or actual thermal release power are monitored in real time. If the actual thermal storage power exceeds the preset ratio of the target thermal storage power or the actual thermal release power exceeds the preset ratio of the target thermal release power, fine-tuning is triggered immediately to ensure peak-shaving accuracy.
[0101] The results of the peak shaving control include wind power curtailment rate, aquifer thermal storage efficiency, grid peak shaving command fulfillment rate, and user-side load supply rate. The wind power curtailment rate reflects the utilization efficiency of curtailed power resources. It is calculated by obtaining the amount of curtailed power consumed and taking the ratio of the consumed curtailed power to the total curtailed power as the wind power curtailment rate.
[0102] The aquifer thermal storage efficiency is calculated as follows: the actual heat storage capacity of the storage area is obtained, and the ratio of the actual heat storage capacity to the theoretical maximum heat storage capacity is taken as the aquifer thermal storage efficiency; the theoretical maximum heat storage capacity is determined by the volume of the thermal storage medium, the specific heat capacity of the thermal storage medium, and the allowable temperature rise of the thermal storage medium.
[0103] The grid peak-shaving command satisfaction rate reflects the system's responsiveness to grid peak-shaving demands. It is calculated by obtaining the number of times peak-shaving requirements are met and the total number of peak-shaving commands, and using the ratio of the number of times peak-shaving requirements are met to the total number of peak-shaving commands as the grid peak-shaving command satisfaction rate.
[0104] The user-side load supply rate reflects the degree to which load demand is met. It is calculated by calculating the actual heat supply and taking the ratio of the actual heat supply to the total load demand on the user side as the user-side load supply rate.
[0105] S6: Based on the results of the peak shaving control, iteratively execute steps S3 to S5; when the preset iteration conditions are met, stop the iteration and output the peak shaving control results obtained in the last iteration; the iteration conditions include: the results of the peak shaving control are all greater than or equal to the preset threshold, or the number of iterations is greater than or equal to the preset maximum number of iterations;
