Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of distributed energy system planning, and more particularly to a rule-driven method for coupling and optimizing multi-energy complementary distributed energy technologies in rural areas. Background Technology

[0002] Existing rural energy planning has long relied on an experience-driven design paradigm, which has revealed systemic flaws in practical applications.

[0003] First, current planning relies excessively on fixed combinations such as "photovoltaics + batteries" or "wind power + diesel engines," neglecting the spatiotemporal fluctuations in rural resource endowments. For example, when photovoltaic systems are mechanically applied in areas rich in solar energy resources, biogas complementary systems are not designed in conjunction with local biomass resources, resulting in low energy conversion efficiency. Agricultural photovoltaic projects commonly suffer from "abandoned farming due to sunlight," such as photovoltaic panels blocking sunlight leading to reduced crop yields, decreased farmer willingness to plant, and ultimately resulting in idle land resources and a surge in photovoltaic curtailment rates. More seriously, a single technological approach is insufficient to cope with resource fluctuations, especially in wind power-dependent areas where high wind curtailment rates are due to a lack of energy storage infrastructure, while geothermal resource areas lack coupled heat storage and cooling systems, resulting in insufficient utilization of geothermal energy during the non-heating season.

[0004] Secondly, existing planning models overemphasize economic indicators while neglecting environmental benefits and resource recycling needs. A typical contradiction lies in the biomass treatment process, where large amounts of straw and livestock manure are not incorporated into the energy conversion pathway but are instead directly burned in the open or landfilled. Rural straw burning not only wastes resources but also causes PM2.5 emissions to exceed standards. Simultaneously, carbon reduction targets are out of touch with rural realities; planning schemes rarely use carbon emissions per unit of energy as a hard constraint, resulting in rural coal consumption still accounting for a large proportion and pollutant emissions exceeding those in cities. Furthermore, there is a significant gap in rural waste resource utilization, and the energy utilization rate of solid waste is insufficient. For example, the existing invention patent application CN117611382A discloses a method for optimizing rural integrated energy systems that considers multi-layered collaboration and demand response. While this method constructs a multi-layered collaborative framework for rural energy, it lacks an embedded intelligent decision-making rule base and cannot dynamically output a technology coupling matrix based on resource data, still relying on subjective configuration by engineers.

[0005] Furthermore, rural energy systems require coordination of multiple dynamic constraints, including resource distribution, load fluctuations, and grid connection. However, current planning relies on manual trial and error adjustments, resulting in a prolonged solution generation cycle. For example, the load matching process requires manual calculation of the electricity / heat load ratio, but it is difficult to track the peak-valley load differences between winter greenhouse heating and summer agricultural product processing in real time, often leading to equipment capacity mismatch. Patent CN120184906A focuses on hardware optimization for photovoltaic DC access, completely ignoring multi-energy complementary integration and failing to address key technology coupling interfaces such as biomass gasification and geothermal pumps, thus limiting the applicability of the solution in rural multi-resource scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a rule-driven coupling optimization method for rural multi-energy complementary distributed energy technologies, primarily resolving the issues raised in the background technology.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0008] A rule-driven method for coupling optimization of rural multi-energy complementary distributed energy technologies includes the following steps:

[0009] A quantitative assessment of the primary energy endowment and diverse end-use energy demand characteristics of rural areas is conducted to generate standardized resource endowment data and energy demand data.

[0010] Based on a generative system and hierarchical rule construction engine using forward chain reasoning, the resource endowment data and energy demand data are input into the rule engine to generate a preliminary multi-energy complementary technology coupling scheme.

[0011] Verify the feasibility of the preliminary technical coupling scheme, and output the final technical coupling scheme and analysis results.

[0012] In some implementations, the quantitative evaluation process of the resource endowment data includes:

[0013] The available amount of biomass resources is quantified based on preset conditions, and the available amount of biomass resources is classified into rich, average or scarce levels according to preset thresholds.

[0014] Wind energy resource levels are classified based on average wind power density;

[0015] Solar energy resources are classified based on the average annual total solar radiation and peak sunshine hours.

[0016] The exploitable capacity of hydropower resources is assessed using theoretical hydropower output, and the exploitable capacity of the hydropower resources is classified into different levels.

[0017] Geothermal resources are classified according to the temperature of the geothermal fluid.

[0018] In some implementations, the hierarchical rules include three types: resource assessment rules, technology coupling rules, and economic and environmental protection rules. When the rule engine is running, the rules are executed in the basic order of resource assessment rules, technology coupling rules, and economic and environmental protection rules. When a conflict is triggered in the basic order, the priority of economic and environmental protection rules is raised to the highest level, and the priority of technology coupling rules is raised to the lowest level. For conflicts of the same type of rules, the principle of recent use priority is adopted.

[0019] In some implementations, the resource assessment rules incorporate the resource endowment data and further include:

[0020] Calculate the resource fluctuation coefficients for various primary energy sources and label the volatility of the corresponding primary energy sources;

[0021] Assess the complementarity of wind and solar energy resources;

[0022] Calculate the synergy coefficients among various primary energy sources.

[0023] In some embodiments, the technology coupling rules include primary energy conversion / conversion technology coupling rules, secondary energy conversion technology coupling rules, and energy storage technology coupling rules, wherein,

[0024] The primary energy conversion / conversion technology coupling rules are based on the energy characteristics of the resource endowment data, and add the technologies that need to be coupled in combination with preset configuration rules;

[0025] The secondary energy conversion technology coupling rule is based on the conversion characteristics of the energy demand data, and adds the technologies that need to be coupled by combining preset configuration rules;

[0026] The energy storage technology coupling rules are based on the existing energy storage configuration of the system, and add technologies that need to be coupled by combining preset configuration rules.

[0027] In some implementations, the economic and environmental protection rules include economic constraint rules, environmental constraint rules, and comprehensive economic and environmental protection scoring rules.

[0028] In some implementations, the preliminary technology coupling scheme includes a list of energy technologies, a system topology suggestion, and economic and environmental indicators. The system topology suggestion includes: the rule engine creates a topology graph during the reasoning process, inputs the selected coupling technologies into the topology graph, and records the connection relationships between each coupling technology. When a technology is enabled, a new node is created in the topology graph, and directed edges are automatically established between the nodes according to the input and output types of the technologies, integrating them into a coherent directed graph to describe the energy flow and material flow paths of the entire multi-energy complementary system.

[0029] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In the planning stage of rural energy systems, based on the multi-form resource endowment (biomass, wind energy, solar energy, hydropower, geothermal energy) and energy demand (cold, heat, electricity, gas, hydrogen) of rural areas, a smart rule engine outputs coupling suggestions for multiple types of distributed energy technologies, including energy conversion technology and energy storage technology, thereby realizing the automatic generation of technology coupling schemes, significantly improving planning efficiency, and reducing carbon emissions and energy costs.

[0034] Example

[0035] This embodiment proposes a rule-driven optimization method for multi-energy complementary distributed energy technology coupling in rural areas. The core innovation lies in constructing a hierarchical rule base and combining resource assessment, technology coupling, and economic and environmental rules to achieve automatic generation of technology coupling schemes.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown (corresponding to step 1) Figure 1 In the resource-demand analysis layer, step 2 corresponds to Figure 1 In the rule base engine layer, step 3 corresponds to Figure 1 The solution verification layer and solution output layer in the system include the following steps:

[0037] Step 1: Quantitatively assess the local primary energy endowment and diverse end-user energy demand characteristics of rural areas to generate standardized resource endowment data and energy demand data.

[0038] The resource endowment and energy demand data acquired in Step 1 form the data foundation and core input of this method. Its function is to conduct refined collection and quantitative assessment of localized primary energy endowment and diverse end-user energy demands in rural areas, providing standardized and computable data input for the rule engine. This layer transforms the original spatiotemporal distribution data into assessment indicators with clear physical meaning and technical guidance value by establishing a multi-dimensional resource and demand quantification model.

[0039] In one example, resource endowment data requires at least biomass resource abundance, wind speed, light intensity, hydrological data, and geothermal temperature as a quantitative basis before assessment. The quantitative assessment process for resource endowment data includes:

[0040] Step 101: Quantify the available biomass resources based on preset conditions, and classify the available biomass resources into abundant, moderate, or scarce levels according to preset thresholds. Specifically, the available biomass resources... Calculated using the following formula:

[0041]

[0042] in, , For the first The planting area and yield per unit area of ​​similar crops, , , For the first The number of livestock and poultry in stock, the average daily manure production, and the manure collection coefficient.

[0043] Ultimately, according to The value range can be divided into three usable levels: "abundant", "average", and "scarce" by setting a preset threshold.

[0044] Step 102: Classify wind energy resources based on average wind power density. Specifically, wind energy resource level (wind energy resource potential) is determined by average wind power density. Characterization, calculated based on collected wind speed data:

[0045]

[0046] in, air density, The number of wind speed sampling points. For the first Wind speed values ​​at each sampling point; based on IEC standards and local wind conditions, They are divided into different grades, such as >400 W / m² is "excellent", 200~400 W / m² is "good", and <200 W / m² is "poor".

[0047] Step 103: Classify solar energy resource levels based on average annual total solar radiation and peak sunshine hours. Specifically, the solar energy resource level is determined by average annual total solar radiation. and peak sunshine hours Joint assessment:

[0050] in, This represents the number of months for which data was collected (usually 12). For the first The total solar radiation of the month; according to or The numerical range is classified according to the national light resource zoning standards.

[0051] Step 104: Assess the exploitable capacity of hydropower resources using theoretical hydropower output and classify the exploitable capacity of hydropower resources into levels. Specifically, for small-scale hydropower resources, theoretical hydropower output is used. Conduct an assessment:

[0053] in, The density of water, It is the acceleration due to gravity. For traffic, This refers to the net water head (drop). Considering the available technological resources, an efficiency coefficient needs to be introduced. Based on the technologically exploitable capacity value Assess development value:

[0054]

[0055] Step 105: Classify geothermal resources based on geothermal fluid temperature. Specifically, the geothermal resource level is determined based on the geothermal fluid temperature. Classification: High temperature (>150°C): suitable for power generation; Medium temperature (90°C~150°C): suitable for power generation or direct heating; Low temperature (<90°C): suitable for direct use (heating, greenhouses, aquaculture);

[0056] At the same time, the thermal power of the geothermal field needs to be assessed. potential:

[0057]

[0058] in, For the density of geothermal fluid, This refers to the specific heat capacity of the geothermal fluid. This represents the flow rate of geothermal fluid. The outlet temperature of the production well. This refers to the reinjection temperature.

[0059] Finally, using the key parameters and theoretical models obtained in steps 101-105, resource time-series data is dynamically generated to support subsequent rule engine parsing.

[0060] In one example, energy demand data requires at least cooling, heating, electricity, gas, and hydrogen load curves as a basis for quantification before assessment. In the early stages of rural planning or in areas with weak infrastructure, hourly load data is often unavailable. In such cases, a level-based load estimation and modeling strategy can be employed to ensure the completeness of the rule engine's input. The quantitative assessment process for energy demand data includes:

[0061] Collect hourly load data for the whole year or typical days (quarters) to form load curves. ,in It represents load types such as cold, heat, electricity, gas, and hydrogen.

[0062] Step 106: First, extract key feature parameters from the load curve. These key feature parameters include annual maximum load, annual minimum load, annual average load, and load factor, providing input for capacity matching rules.

[0063] Maximum annual load:

[0071] Analyze the coupling relationships between different loads, such as the thermoelectric ratio:

[0072]

[0073] Step 107: Demand restructuring based on limited data and rural energy consumption characteristics:

[0074] Annual total load estimates based on macroeconomic data, such as inversely estimating annual total demand using available macroeconomic data (e.g., electricity bills, annual fuel consumption, population / industry size):

[0075] For the total annual demand of electricity load :

[0076]

[0077] in, For the number of households, Average annual electricity consumption per household For farmland area, Agricultural electricity intensity (e.g., kWh / mu·year). For the number of processing plants, This represents the annual electricity consumption of a single plant.

[0089] in, For the number of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, Hydrogen consumption (kg / km) Average annual mileage The energy required for energy storage For fuel cell efficiency.

[0090] Step 108, Key Parameter-Driven Time Series Generation: Dynamically generate load curves using the key feature parameters obtained in steps 106-107.

[0091] Step 2: Based on the production system and hierarchical rules of forward chain reasoning, construct a rule engine, input resource endowment data and energy demand data into the rule engine, and generate a preliminary multi-energy complementary technology coupling scheme.

[0092] like Figure 2 As shown, the hierarchical rules include three types: resource assessment rules, technology coupling rules, and economic and environmental protection rules. During the rule engine's operation, the rules are executed in the basic order of resource assessment rules, technology coupling rules, and economic and environmental protection rules (RAR→TCR→EER). When a conflict occurs in the basic order, the priority of economic and environmental protection rules (EER) is raised to the highest level, followed by resource assessment rules (RAR), and the priority of technology coupling rules is raised to the lowest level. For conflicts of the same type of rules, the principle of recent use takes precedence.

[0093] Step 201, the resource assessment rules include resource endowment data (i.e., the levels calculated and classified using formulas (1)-(7)), and also include:

[0304] Ultimately, the resulting preliminary technology coupling scheme includes a list of energy technologies, a system topology suggestion, and economic and environmental performance indicators. The system topology suggestion involves the rule engine creating a topology graph during the reasoning process, inputting the selected coupling technologies into the topology graph, and recording the connections between each coupling technology. Each time a technology is activated, a new node is created in the topology graph, and directed edges are automatically established between nodes based on the technology's input and output types, integrating them into a coherent directed graph to describe the energy and material flow paths of the entire multi-energy complementary system. More preferably, the preliminary technology coupling scheme also includes economic and environmental performance indicators (economic, environmental, and comprehensive evaluation results of the scheme).

[0368] Photovoltaics: 120 kWp;

[0369] Ground source heat pump: 100 kW.

[0370] HOMER software was used to conduct an 8760-hour hourly system simulation to verify the system's supply-demand balance and stability. The key performance indicators are assumed to be as follows:

[0371] Energy self-sufficiency rate: 92%;

[0372] Overall system efficiency: 78%;

[0373] Power curtailment rate: <5%.

[0374] The sensitivity of the scheme is analyzed, including the setting of biomass price (±20%), grid electricity price (±20%), and equipment investment cost (±15%). The analysis can obtain the impact of price fluctuations on the economic indicators of the scheme and verify the satisfaction of economic constraints.

[0375] Through the scheme verification layer, conclusions can be obtained regarding the technical feasibility, economic rationality, and environmental compliance of the scheme. If the scheme passes verification, no adjustments are needed. The scheme output layer then transforms the verified scheme into standardized planning outputs, including a list of technical coupling schemes as shown in Table 1, and the system topology (see appendix).
