Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system planning and operation, specifically to a method for constructing and solving a collaborative scheduling optimization model of a computing center and power grid based on energy consumption elasticity space. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing, the Internet of Things, 5G communication, and virtual reality, the demand for computing centers and cloud computing services continues to grow, and their operating energy consumption accounts for a significant proportion of total social electricity consumption. There are approximately 8 million computing centers globally, consuming about 460 terawatt-hours of electricity, accounting for 1.4% of global energy consumption. Computing centers have gradually become a major consumer of electricity in the power system.
[0003] As a core infrastructure of the digital economy, computing centers are characterized by large load capacity, strong regulation capabilities, and stable energy demand. They possess rapid and flexible load control capabilities and are valuable demand-side response resources in the power system. Computing centers have the potential for flexible load control; their tasks are divisible, highly mobile in time and space, and have a high load elasticity coefficient, enabling them to respond to peak-valley regulation needs of the power grid. The participation of computing centers in grid collaborative dispatch not only effectively reduces the cost of computing centers but also improves the operational stability and resource utilization of the power grid, facilitating the integration of new power systems with the digital economy. The collaborative dispatch mechanism provides flexible regulation resources for power grid operation, effectively smoothing grid load fluctuations, reducing peak loads, and thus reducing power grid investment costs and operational losses.
[0004] Accurately constructing a collaborative scheduling optimization model between computing centers and the power grid has become a key research challenge. In the field of energy consumption optimization management, existing research focuses on hardware upgrades, cooling technology innovation, and algorithm scheduling to drive the transformation of computing centers from energy consumption reduction to low-carbon and high-efficiency operation. Research on computing-power collaborative planning mainly revolves around spatial layout planning and infrastructure collaborative planning, optimizing power grid resource allocation through targeted absorption of new energy sources to achieve collaborative scheduling between computing centers and the power grid. In summary, current research is mostly concentrated on energy consumption optimization management within computing centers, computing-power collaborative planning, and optimized operation of integrated energy systems in computing centers. There is relatively little research on collaborative scheduling models between computing centers and the power grid, and a lack of a systemic collaborative perspective: either focusing on economic scheduling on the power grid side or limited to energy efficiency optimization on the data center side, there is a lack of models that place both under a unified framework for joint optimization, and the value of computing load as a flexible resource for bidirectional regulation cannot be fully explored.

[0278] To ensure the computing efficiency, and are linearized from the original quadratic expression, and finally form a mixed integer linear programming model.
[0279] In step 2), for the energy consumption optimization model, it is converted into a linear programming model with the energy consumption feasible region as the optimization space. Based on the multi-parameter programming theory, the energy consumption elasticity space capable of representing the power supply boundary required by the regional computing center is calculated, and the steps are as follows:
[0280] First, the energy consumption optimization model is converted into a feasibility analysis problem in the following form to determine the feasible energy consumption value:

A, B, C, D are determined by the computing power center energy consumption model.
[0284] Secondly, the theoretical knowledge of optimal partition and critical region is clarified.
[0285] Concept 1: Optimal Partition
[0286] Let L be the set of constraint numbers of formula (19). For any subset , A, B and D represent the block sub-matrix of A, B and D corresponding to the constraint row number C. The active constraints and inactive constraints in formula (19) can be expressed as:
[0287] Active constraints:

[0290] (21)
[0291] That is: , and . For the parameter w in the feasible space W, an optimal partition (ξ(w), ξ c (w)) about the number set C is defined as:
[0292] (22)
[0293] Concept 2: Critical Region
[0294] Given the parameter w0∈W, define , then the critical region CR ξ0 about w0 is defined as:
[0295] (23)
[0296] The concept of optimal partitioning provides a standard for optimally partitioning the parameter space: dividing the space according to the effective and ineffective constraint sets of the optimization problem. The concept of critical region merges parameter spaces with the same effective constraint set into a critical region. Therefore, by solving through optimal partitioning and critical regions, the parameter feasible space W, i.e., the energy consumption elasticity space, can be obtained.
[0297] In step 3), the energy consumption elasticity space calculated based on multi-parameter programming theory is effectively embedded into the grid unit combination scheduling model. The goal is to minimize the output and start-up / shutdown costs of the grid units, with the feasible domain equation of the energy consumption elasticity space and the grid operation safety constraints as constraints, thereby realizing the collaborative scheduling between the computing center and the grid.
[0298] The optimization model for collaborative scheduling between computing centers and power grids takes minimizing the output and start-up / shutdown costs of power grid units as its objective function.
[0299] (twenty four)
[0300] Where: continuous variables They represent the generating units. At any moment The costs of power output, startup, and shutdown; Indicates the unit The cost of labor; and This represents the set of generating units and scheduling periods. The objective function is... The physical meaning is: to minimize the unit output and start-up / shutdown cost coefficient.
[0301] The feasible domain of energy consumption elasticity space and grid operation safety constraints are determined as constraints. The grid operation safety constraints include upper and lower limits of unit output, unit ramping constraints, minimum start-up and shutdown time limits of units, start-up and shutdown cost constraints, power balance constraints, and branch power flow constraints.
[0302] Energy consumption elasticity space feasible region constraint for computing centers:
[0303] The energy consumption elastic space of the computing center, as a convex polyhedron, can be completely characterized by a set of boundary hyperplanes. The hyperplane equation is expressed as:
[0304] (25)
[0305] In the formula, HA is the normal vector matrix of the hyperplane, and HB is the constant term vector of the hyperplane; together, they describe the boundary of the feasible region; P DC = {P DC,1 , P DC,2 ,…,P DC,m} represents the power consumption vector of each computing center.
[0306] Unit output upper and lower limit constraints:
[0307] (26)
[0308] In the formula, For the unit At any moment The start / stop status, with a value of 1 indicating the unit's start / stop status. At any moment When the unit is in the "on" state, a value of 0 indicates that the unit is in the "on" state. At any moment The device is currently powered off. and For the unit The upper and lower limits of power output. This constraint limits the unit's output; for thermal power units, The output space is discontinuous, which leads to the discreteness of the unit combination problem. It is the only discrete variable in the unit combination model modeled in a single-variable manner. Its properties are 0-1 variables, and it can be called a binary variable.
[0309] Unit ramp-up constraints:
[0310] (27)
[0311] In the formula, and This is the unit's ramp rate. This constraint limits the output increment between adjacent time periods under different start-up and shutdown states of the unit.

[0313] (28)
[0314] In the formula, and Indicates the unit The minimum continuous on or off time. and Indicates the unit At any moment The constraint limits the minimum continuous start-up or shutdown time of the unit.
[0315] Unit start-up and shutdown cost constraints:
[0316] (29)
[0317] In the formula, and Indicates the unit The start-up and shutdown costs. This constraint defines the unit start-up and shutdown costs, which can be linearly represented by the unit's start-up and shutdown states.
[0318] Power balance constraints:
[0319] (30)
[0320] Equation (35) represents the power balance equation for node i, where: The injected power offset for node i. For the unit At any moment Contributing to the cause at the time For nodes At any moment The active power load demand; For nodal admittance matrix terms; Let be the voltage angle of the j-th node during time period t; Let i be the set of generators located at node i; The set of computing power centers located at node i.
[0321] Branch flow constraints:
[0322] (31)
[0323] In the formula, These are the upper and lower limits of the branch power flow, respectively. Associating susceptance with the nodes of the branch circuit. Let k be the flow admittance between line k and node i; To inject additional active power into the branch circuit, This is an injection correction for line k. This is the voltage angle.
[0324] In step 4), the optimization model for coordinated scheduling between the computing center and the power grid is solved. Since this model is a mixed-integer linear programming problem, the branch and bound method is used for solving it.
[0325] Branch and bound is a core algorithm in commercial solvers such as GUROBI and CPLEX. After model preprocessing, the optimal solution to a mixed-integer linear programming problem is searched using the branch and bound process. Essentially, the branch and bound process is a strategic enumeration of combinations of discrete variables. Taking a mixed-integer linear programming problem with a minimum objective function as an example, in the branch and bound search tree, each node represents a different combination of discrete variable values. When a node in the search tree is assigned a new discrete variable with a discrete value, a new node will branch out. The branch and bound process solves a relaxation model at each node, that is, it solves a relaxation model that relaxes the unassigned discrete variables into continuous variables. If all discrete variables in the obtained solution are integer values, then the solution is a feasible solution to the optimization problem, and its corresponding objective function value is an upper bound. If there are discrete variables with non-integer values in the obtained solution, then the solution is called a relaxation solution, and its corresponding objective function value is called a lower bound. The branch and bound process updates the obtained upper and lower bounds and reduces the gap between them by continuously branching and relaxing the solution. When the solution gap converges to 0, that is, when the upper and lower bounds coincide, it will be impossible to find a feasible solution with the target value better than the current lower bound. The feasible solution corresponding to the current upper bound is the optimal solution.
[0326] By employing the branch-and-bound method to solve the collaborative scheduling optimization model between computing centers and the power grid, the optimal solution P for the power consumption of each computing center after collaborative optimization can be obtained. DC = {P DC,1 , P DC,2 ,…,P DC,m}
[0327] In step 5), the power consumption of each computing center obtained from solving the collaborative scheduling optimization model is substituted into the computing center energy consumption optimization model constructed in step 1). That is, in the computing center power consumption P DC = {P DC,1 , P DC,2 ,…,P DC,m Given a fixed set of conditions, by jointly optimizing the operating status of key energy-consuming equipment (IT equipment, air conditioning system) and the migration strategy of computing tasks, we can optimize the equipment control parameters such as the number of IT equipment to be turned on in the computing center and the air supply temperature of the air conditioning system under the condition of the lowest IT equipment startup cost.
