[0045] In this embodiment, the unit fuel cost is determined by calculating the fuel cost generated by the AGC command and the expected primary frequency regulation action; the electricity price cost is determined by the settlement deviation cost or benefit caused by the deviation of the unit's power generation plan from the original market plan due to the AGC command and the primary frequency regulation; and the grid frequency deviation is determined by the grid frequency deviation generated by the AGC command and the expected primary frequency regulation action.

[0054] In this embodiment, the weights in the objective function weight set are corrected by calculating the deviation, thereby increasing the weight of grid frequency deviation and reducing the weights of unit fuel cost and electricity price cost. The larger the deviation, the higher the degree of correction, so as to achieve optimal control of the unit.
