Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flexible power transmission technology, specifically a flexible low-frequency-flexible DC hybrid power transmission system and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional high-voltage AC transmission systems face numerous challenges in handling the intermittency and volatility of new energy sources, including low power transmission efficiency, poor stability, and large transmission losses over long distances.

[0003] To address this, flexible high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology has emerged. This technology uses voltage source converters (VSCs) to achieve bidirectional power flow and independent control of active and reactive power, offering advantages such as fast response and flexible control. It has been widely applied in offshore wind farm integration and inter-regional interconnection. HVDC is particularly suitable for long-distance transmission of renewable energy because it can significantly reduce transmission losses and improve capacity utilization in long-distance lines, achieving efficient voltage conversion and fault isolation through topologies such as modular multilevel converters (MMCs). However, in short-distance renewable energy aggregation scenarios, HVDC systems have significant limitations, such as the need for high-cost DC cables and conversion equipment, leading to excessive equipment investment and maintenance costs. Furthermore, in multi-terminal DC systems, DC fault isolation and power coordination control still need optimization to avoid a decline in overall system efficiency. In existing technologies, although MMC has become the mainstream topology, its integrated design in hybrid transmission scenarios is not yet mature, especially when combined with low-frequency AC, lacking effective voltage stabilization and power balancing mechanisms. These problems have hindered the efficient transmission of new energy sources and the intelligent transformation of the power grid. There is an urgent need for a new hybrid power transmission scheme to integrate the advantages of flexible DC and low-frequency AC to achieve more efficient energy transmission.

[0004] Low-frequency AC transmission, as an emerging technology, reduces line impedance and increases transmission capacity and distance by lowering the transmission frequency (e.g., 16.7Hz or 20Hz), making it particularly suitable for accessing nearby renewable energy power plants. Compared to traditional power frequency AC, low-frequency AC significantly reduces cable loss and reactor size, making it suitable for wind power aggregation on offshore platforms or in remote areas. In short-distance transmission, low-frequency AC systems simplify aggregation network design, reduce conversion stages, thereby lowering overall costs and improving efficiency. However, existing low-frequency AC systems face high costs for long-distance applications, such as the need for longer low-frequency lines and larger isolation equipment, leading to reduced economic viability. Furthermore, when mixed with DC systems, interface compatibility issues are prominent, such as low voltage conversion efficiency, difficulties in harmonic suppression, and complex multi-port power coordination control.

[0005] Traditional methods often employ independent converter stations for low-frequency to power frequency or DC conversion, resulting in large footprints, redundant equipment, and high maintenance costs. While low-frequency aggregation and networking at renewable energy power plants simplifies transformer design, the lack of seamless integration with high-voltage DC can easily lead to voltage fluctuations and power imbalances. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a flexible low-frequency-flexible DC hybrid power transmission system and its control method, making it applicable to large-scale power transmission scenarios of new energy power plants at different distances.

The receiving-end converter station provides power frequency AC ports, low-frequency AC ports, and high-voltage DC ports. The power conversion unit of the receiving-end converter station consists of nine bridge arms, each containing N power modules, where N is determined according to the system voltage level; for example, in typical applications, N ranges from 100 to 400. Each power module contains two AC interfaces and two DC interfaces. The DC interfaces are generated from the DC bus of the power module through an isolated DC-DC converter. The AC and DC interfaces of the N power modules in each bridge arm are cascaded to form the total AC and DC interfaces of that bridge arm. The total AC interfaces of each bridge arm form a one-to-one connection between the power frequency AC and low-frequency AC ports of the receiving-end converter station, and the total DC ports of each bridge arm are connected in parallel to form the high-voltage DC port.

Figure 3 As shown, the collection frequency f LF Typically 16.7Hz or 20Hz, the voltage is stepped up by a low-frequency transformer and then connected to a low-frequency AC transmission line. The aforementioned high-voltage DC renewable energy power station adopts an AC aggregation and networking operation mode, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the DC voltage is converted to high voltage DC through a sending-end modular multilevel converter (sending-end MMC). The number of sending-end MMC sub-modules is determined according to the DC voltage. For example, in a ±500kV system, the number of sub-modules is 200-300.

The order m of the polynomial fitting is selected based on the system complexity and accuracy requirements, typically ranging from 2 to 4, to balance computational complexity and control accuracy. For example, when m When = 2, the polynomial form is: f dco = f gn + × p dco + , where the coefficient and The coefficients are determined through offline optimization or real-time adaptive algorithms. In practice, the coefficients can be obtained by fitting historical power data and simulation models, for example, by using the least squares method to fit the power-frequency optimization curve.

It ensures that the frequency is reduced at low power levels to minimize losses, and increased at high power levels to enhance transmission capacity, thereby improving overall efficiency.

[0116] In this embodiment, simulation results demonstrate that the hybrid transmission system exhibits good steady-state and dynamic characteristics when connected to different types of renewable energy power plants. For high-voltage direct current (HVDC) renewable energy power plants, the steady-state waveform at the sending end is as follows: Figure 7 (a) and Figure 7 As shown in (b), both the AC voltage and AC current are three-phase symmetrical sinusoids, exhibiting excellent waveform quality. When the system voltage experiences a 50% drop, as... Figure 7 (c) and Figure 7As shown in (d), the AC voltage and current quickly recover to stability after a brief dynamic adjustment in the early stages of the disturbance, demonstrating the system's strong dynamic response capability. Furthermore, as... Figure 7 (e) and Figure 7 As shown in (f), the active power absorbed by the system can quickly follow the power changes of the DC renewable energy power station; the capacitor voltage of the converter submodule remains within the allowable range during steady state and disturbances, with a small voltage ripple amplitude, and can quickly recover to a stable state under control, indicating that the adopted control strategy is effective in submodule voltage equalization and ripple suppression. For low-frequency AC renewable energy power stations, the steady-state waveforms of the power frequency and low-frequency voltages are as follows: Figure 8 (a) and Figure 8 As shown in (b), its power frequency voltage and low-frequency current are both three-phase symmetrical sinusoids, exhibiting excellent waveform quality. When the system power drops by 50%, as... Figure 8 (c) and Figure 8 As shown in (d), the AC currents on the low-frequency side and the power frequency side undergo a short-time transient process and then quickly recover and stabilize in the new operating state; as Figure 8 (e) and Figure 8 As shown in (f), the active power absorbed by the system can quickly respond to changes in the power of low-frequency renewable energy power plants, while the reactive power remains at zero. The capacitor voltage of the converter submodule remains within the allowable range during both steady state and disturbance processes, with a small voltage ripple amplitude. It can also quickly recover to a stable state under control, further verifying the excellent performance of the adopted control strategy in terms of submodule voltage equalization and ripple suppression.
