Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of integrated energy system optimization scheduling technology, and in particular to a microgrid optimization scheduling method that takes into account hydrogen energy storage and building thermal inertia. Background Technology
[0002] Microgrids, as a key form integrating distributed renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, various types of energy storage, and flexible loads, can significantly improve the local energy consumption rate and the overall energy efficiency of the system. However, the strong randomness and volatility of high-proportion wind and solar power output often lead to severe "wind and solar curtailment" phenomena. At the same time, traditional microgrid dispatching mainly focuses on single-energy balance, neglecting the coupling and complementary potential of multiple energy flows such as thermal energy and energy storage within the system. Therefore, how to deeply explore the flexible regulation resources under the multi-energy system architecture and achieve economical, low-carbon, and efficient synergistic operation is a problem that the academic community urgently needs to solve.
[0003] Hydrogen storage systems (HSS) overcome the shortcomings of traditional energy storage systems with their advantages of high energy density, ultra-long storage and release cycles, zero carbon emissions, and multi-energy compatibility. Utilizing water electrolysis devices to produce hydrogen from surplus wind and solar power can overcome the limitations of immediate electricity consumption, reducing wind and solar curtailment at its source. Hydrogen energy can also be converted back into electricity and heat, deeply coupling multiple energy flows within the microgrid. This approach balances short-term power smoothing and cross-seasonal energy dispatch, effectively improving system operational flexibility, power supply reliability, and the level of local renewable energy consumption. It is a core component for optimizing the operation of microgrids with high renewable energy penetration rates.
[0004] However, existing research on the scheduling of hydrogen energy storage microgrids still has several limitations. On the one hand, in existing studies on the optimal scheduling of hydrogen energy storage microgrids, most literature provides a simplistic and one-sided functional model of the hydrogen energy storage system, often equating it only to a simple electrical energy storage and conversion device. The focus is on its power throughput and renewable energy absorption capacity, neglecting the waste heat continuously generated during the energy conversion process of core equipment such as electrolyzer hydrogen production and fuel cell power generation. This waste heat has significant recovery and utilization value, effectively replenishing the system's heat load and reducing heating energy consumption. However, this significantly reduces the overall energy utilization rate of multi-energy systems, making it difficult to achieve economical and efficient operation of the microgrid. On the other hand, existing models in the optimal scheduling of hydrogen energy storage microgrids have a relatively singular and limited dimension in exploring flexible thermal regulation resources. Scheduling optimization focuses only on traditional active thermal storage devices such as thermal storage tanks, relying on artificial energy storage devices to complete thermal energy storage and cross-time period shift regulation. Most studies, when constructing electricity-heat-hydrogen coupled scheduling models, have generally overlooked the high-quality passive thermal regulation resource of building thermal inertia. This resource possesses significant advantages such as zero operating cost, large thermal storage capacity, and strong flexible heat load transfer capability. Because the natural thermal buffering and heat storage characteristics of the building itself are not fully utilized, the heat load regulation space of multi-energy microgrids containing hydrogen storage is greatly compressed, resulting in insufficient overall system regulation flexibility and making it difficult to fully leverage the synergistic scheduling advantages and optimization potential of electricity, heat, and hydrogen multi-energy coupling.

[0077] A complete hydrogen energy storage system consists of three core modules: water electrolysis for hydrogen production, hydrogen storage, and fuel cell power generation. Compared with traditional electrochemical energy storage, hydrogen energy storage, with its unique advantages of large storage capacity and long-term storage, has become a key support for improving the renewable energy absorption rate and enhancing system resilience in independent microgrids: when wind and solar power output is surplus, the electrolyzer converts redundant electrical energy into hydrogen energy for large-scale storage; when renewable energy output is insufficient or encounters extreme operating conditions, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) quickly starts generating electricity, effectively ensuring the reliability of power supply to the microgrid.

[0088] Considering the ambiguity in human perception of ambient temperature, minor disturbances in the indoor thermal environment will not significantly affect user comfort. Leveraging this characteristic, the indoor temperature boundary can be flexibly relaxed within acceptable limits to guide a flexible response to heat load, which can significantly improve the wind power absorption capacity of microgrids. To accurately quantify the user comfort adjustment margin, this application introduces the Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) as a benchmark for thermal comfort evaluation.
