Methods and Systems for Assessing the Adjustable Capacity Potential of Central Air Conditioning and Electric Vehicles Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of demand-side management technology for power systems, specifically to a method and system for assessing the adjustable capacity potential of central air conditioning and electric vehicle loads. Background Technology

[0002] With the large-scale grid connection of renewable energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics, the randomness and volatility of power grid operation have increased significantly, making traditional generation-side regulation insufficient to meet the demand for rapid response. Electric vehicles and central air conditioning, as two types of flexible loads with significant regulation potential, are subject to complex influences from factors such as battery characteristics, user comfort, and climate conditions. Existing research mostly focuses on assessing the regulation capacity of individual devices or similar loads, neglecting the spatiotemporal coupling effects of electric vehicle mobility and air conditioning thermal inertia. For example, the charging behavior of electric vehicles varies with time and geographical location, while the regulation capacity of central air conditioning depends on the indoor-outdoor temperature difference and building thermal characteristics. Failure to accurately quantify the coupling effect of these two elements at different spatiotemporal scales may lead to overestimation or underestimation of the aggregation potential, affecting the economy and security of power grid dispatch strategies. Therefore, a refined and dynamic method for assessing adjustable capacity potential is urgently needed, which can reflect both the operational constraints of individual devices and the synergistic effect between electric vehicles and air conditioning loads, thereby accurately supporting the optimal allocation of flexible resources in the power grid.

[0094] Taking the sample vehicle as an example and setting:

[0095]

[0096]

[0097] Statistics of all After considering the results for all vehicles, the total adjustable capacity of electric vehicles is approximately 30MW.

[0098] In S3, the central air conditioning adjustable capacity assessment model is as follows:

[0099]

[0100] in, Let j be the adjustable capacity of the j-th central air conditioner. Let J be the rated power of the j-th central air conditioner. Let J be the indoor temperature of the j-th central air conditioner. Set the temperature for the j-th central air conditioner; The maximum allowable temperature deviation for the j-th central air conditioner is set to 2°C.

[0114]

[0115] right By summing the central air conditioning units in Taiwan, we can obtain the total adjustable capacity of the central air conditioning units. .

[0116] This study constructs a coupling characteristic analysis model encompassing temporal coupling, spatial coupling, and load complementarity to quantify the mutual influence between central air conditioning and electric vehicle loads. To avoid overestimating the aggregation potential due to simple addition, a three-dimensional coupling evaluation of time, space, and complementarity is introduced. The flowchart is shown in Figure 2. First, historical load curves of electric vehicles and central air conditioning are obtained, and the temporal coupling is calculated using the Pearson correlation coefficient, reflecting the synchronicity of the central air conditioning and electric vehicle loads in the time dimension. Second, the geographical location information of electric vehicle charging points and central air conditioning is extracted, and the spatial coupling is calculated based on a Gaussian distance decay model, characterizing the degree of aggregation of the two in spatial distribution. Third, the charging and operating periods of the load are identified, and the minimum energy percentage is calculated to obtain the load complementarity, reflecting the peak-shifting and complementary characteristics of the power curves. Finally, the three coupling degrees are weighted and summed to output a comprehensive coupling coefficient and coupling characteristic matrix, providing input for assessing the aggregated adjustable capacity potential. In this embodiment, the statistical window is the past 30 days. ,common Each time period; power units are all in kW.

[0117] In S4, coupling characteristic analysis includes the following steps:

[0118] Calculate the time coupling coefficient: The time coupling coefficient is directly defined as the Pearson correlation coefficient of the aggregated load sequences of electric vehicles and central air conditioning within a historical time window. This coefficient can reflect the degree of synchronous change of the two types of loads in the time dimension. Because it has the characteristics of strong linear correlation, good scale independence, and clear sign interpretability, it can accurately characterize the synergistic or complementary trends of the two. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0119]

[0120]

[0121]

[0122]

[0123]

[0124] in, For time coupling degree; For the first Aggregated historical load of electric vehicles at a given time point; For the first The aggregated historical load of the central air conditioning system at a given time point; the average historical load of electric vehicles; This represents the historical average load of the central air conditioning system. This is the total number of historical time points within the statistics window.

[0125] when When the load changes over time, it indicates that the central air conditioning and electric vehicle loads show consistent trends, indicating a strong synergistic effect; when When, it indicates that the two change in opposite directions and have complementary characteristics; when The closer the value is to 1, the tighter the temporal coupling. To facilitate integration with other normalized indicators, it can be selectively linearly mapped to an interval. ,Right now The normalized time coupling is updated to the latest time coupling.

[0126] Calculating the spatial coupling coefficient: The spatial coupling coefficient is directly defined as the average distance attenuation coefficient between the electric vehicle charging point and the central air conditioning equipment in geographic space. This coefficient measures the degree of aggregation of the two types of loads in physical spatial distribution. The Gaussian distance attenuation model is chosen because it has monotonically decreasing, continuously differentiable, and outlier suppression characteristics, which can smoothly describe the influence of spatial distance on load coupling strength. Its calculation formula is as follows:

[0127]

[0128] in, Spatial coupling degree; For the first electric vehicles and the first The geographical distance between the central air conditioning units is calculated based on the latitude and longitude coordinates collected in step S1. This is the spatial standard deviation parameter used to control the decay rate, typically set to 500 meters. For the number of electric vehicles; This refers to the number of central air conditioning units. When... When the value approaches 1, it indicates that the central air conditioning and electric vehicle loads are highly concentrated in space and strongly coupled; when... When the value is close to 0, it indicates a discrete spatial distribution and weak coupling. This is because the coefficient itself takes values ​​within a certain range. It can directly participate in the comprehensive weight calculation without further normalization.

[0129] Calculating the load complementarity coefficient: The load complementarity is directly defined as the complementarity index of the load complementarity relationship between electric vehicles and central air conditioning within the same time period. This index can characterize whether the two types of loads have peak-shifting and complementary characteristics in the power time series. The minimum energy percentage form is chosen because it can intuitively reflect the proportion of heavy and light loads, has clear dimensions, and is applicable to load groups of different sizes. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0130]

[0131] in, For load complementarity; For the first Aggregate load of electric vehicles at a given time point; For the first The aggregate load of central air conditioning at a given time point; This represents the total number of historical time points. When... When the value is close to 1, it indicates that the power curves of the two types of loads are highly complementary, and a significant peak-shaving and valley-filling effect can be achieved; when... When the value is close to 0, it indicates that the two types of load changes are highly synchronized and have weak complementarity. Because... Defined in Within the interval, it can be directly used for the weighted calculation of the comprehensive coupling coefficient.

[0132] Calculate the overall coupling coefficient:

[0133]

[0134] in, This refers to the overall coupling coefficient; This is the time coupling coefficient; This is the spatial coupling coefficient; This is the load complementarity coefficient; , , The corresponding weighting coefficients for the time coupling degree, spatial coupling degree, and load complementarity degree are set respectively, and satisfy the following conditions: .

[0135] For example, (1) calculate the time coupling degree:

[0136] The aggregated historical load of electric vehicles within the 30-day statistical window was calculated from historical data of S1. The central air conditioning aggregate historical load is 36,000,000 kW.

[0137]

[0138]

[0139]

[0140]

[0141] This indicates a moderate positive correlation between the two types of loads over time. Indicator weighting allows for linear mapping. .

[0142] (2) Calculate spatial coupling: Based on the geographical locations of electric vehicle charging points and central air conditioning, calculate the average distance attenuation coefficient.

[0143]

[0144] in, Spatial coupling degree; The geographical distance between the i-th electric vehicle and the j-th central air conditioner is calculated from the location coordinates collected by S1. The spatial standard deviation is set to 500 meters; N is the total number of electric vehicles; M is the total number of central air conditioning units; in this embodiment, Due to the large sample size, the average of all EV-AC distances is used. As a representative value for the whole, it is approximately calculated as follows:

[0145]

[0146] (3) Calculate the load complementarity: Calculate the load complementarity index based on the historical load sequence.

[0147]

[0148] in, For load complementarity; Aggregate historical loads for electric vehicles at the k-th time point; The central air conditioning aggregated historical load is the k-th time point; L is the number of historical time points.

[0149] The total aggregate load of electric vehicles within the 30-day statistical window was calculated from historical data of S1. The total aggregate load of the central air conditioning system is .but:

[0150]

[0151] The calculated load overlap ratio is as follows:

[0152]

[0153] By inverse calculation, we can obtain:

[0154]

[0155] Substituting into the load complementarity formula:

[0156]

[0157] This indicates that electric vehicles and central air conditioning have a moderately strong complementary relationship in terms of power time series, which can achieve peak shaving and valley filling effects to a certain extent.

[0158] (4) Calculate the overall coupling coefficient:

[0159]

[0160] in, This refers to the overall coupling coefficient; For time coupling degree; Spatial coupling degree; For load complementarity; , , The corresponding weighting coefficients for the time coupling degree, spatial coupling degree, and load complementarity degree are set respectively, and satisfy the following conditions: Preferably, the values ​​are set to 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 respectively.

[0161] Substitute and calculate step by step:

[0162]

[0163]

[0177]

[0178] In this embodiment (urban weekdays, the next 24 hours), Under these conditions, the tunable capacity potential of the aggregate after considering coupling loss is approximately [value missing]. MW.

[0179] This embodiment fully demonstrates the innovation and superiority of the present invention in the assessment of adjustable capacity for flexible loads. Traditional methods typically use the summation of the independent capacities of electric vehicles and central air conditioning, failing to consider the coupling effects of the two types of loads in terms of time, space, and operating characteristics. This easily leads to duplicate capacity calculations and scheduling mismatches, resulting in assessment results that are overestimated by approximately 8% to 12%. The present invention, however, introduces three-dimensional indices of time coupling degree, spatial coupling degree, and load complementarity, establishing an aggregated adjustable capacity model that considers time delay characteristics and electric vehicle battery characteristics, achieving accurate quantification of the collaborative constraint relationships between different resources. Experimental results show that, under the same data conditions, the adjustable capacity obtained by the traditional independent superposition method is 33 MW, while the result obtained by the present invention after comprehensive coupling correction is 29.67 MW, reducing the error by approximately 10%. The deviation between the predicted result and the actual scheduling feasibility is reduced from 12.4% to 4.8%, improving the capacity assessment accuracy by approximately 61%. Furthermore, this method was simulated and validated under typical high-temperature, high-load day scenarios. Compared to traditional static assessment methods, this method improves the load response rate by approximately 15% and the peak-shaving effect by approximately 1.3 MW, effectively avoiding duplicate responses and resource conflicts. In summary, this invention, by constructing an assessment framework that considers the dynamic coupling relationship between electric vehicles and central air conditioning, outperforms existing technologies in terms of model structure, data association, and assessment accuracy, providing more accurate and reliable technical support for the flexible resource scheduling of urban integrated energy systems.
