[0010] [Embodiment] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a microgrid MG that is a control target of a supply and demand control device 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing a specific configuration of the supply and demand control device 10.

[0011] The following description will be given of a case where the present disclosure is applied to a supply and demand control device included in an EMS (Energy Management System) of a microgrid installed on a remote island. However, the supply and demand control device of the present disclosure can also be applied to a supply and demand control device that controls supply and demand for power flow in a microgrid that builds a small-scale energy network in an industrial area, for example.

[0012] <Microgrid MG> As shown in FIG. 1, the microgrid MG includes load equipment 1 that consumes power, power generation equipment 2 that generates power, and storage battery 3 that charges and discharges the power. The load equipment 1, power generation equipment 2, and storage battery 3 are interconnected by power lines. The load equipment 1 includes facilities that generate power loads, such as factories and private homes. The power generation equipment 2 includes, for example, renewable energy power generation sources such as solar power generation and wind power generation, and fuel energy power generation sources such as diesel power generation and micro gas turbine power generation. The storage battery 3 is a secondary battery, and charging and discharging are controlled by the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment.

[0013] An external first power system K1 is connected to the microgrid MG at a connection point C1, and the microgrid MG is capable of receiving power from the first power system K1. An external second power system K2 is connected to the microgrid MG at a connection point C2, and the microgrid MG is capable of transmitting power to the second power system K2. The first power system K1 is, for example, a power transmission system of a power company, and includes at least one power transmission system. The second power system K2 is, for example, a power receiving system of a power company, a factory, or the like, and includes at least one power receiving system.

[0014] The supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment acquires received power from the first power system K1 measured at a connection point C1. The supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment also acquires transmitted power from the second power system K2 measured at a connection point C2. Using the acquired received power and transmitted power, the supply and demand control device 10 controls the charging and discharging of the storage battery 3 so that the received power and the transmitted power are offset over a certain period of time.

[0015] <Supply and demand control device 10> 2, the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment includes a received power acquisition unit 11, a transmitted power acquisition unit 12, an integrated received power calculation unit 13, an integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14, a difference calculation unit 15, and a storage battery control unit 16. The received power acquisition unit 11 is a functional block that acquires received power received by the microgrid MG from a first power system K1 as an external power system. The transmitted power acquisition unit 12 is a functional block that acquires transmitted power transmitted by the microgrid MG to a second power system K2 as an external power system.

[0016] The integrated received power calculation unit 13 is a functional block that calculates the integrated received power by integrating the received power acquired by the received power acquisition unit 11 over a predetermined period. The integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 is a functional block that calculates the integrated transmitted power by integrating the transmitted power acquired by the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 over a predetermined period. The predetermined period is set to, for example, any value within a range of 1 second to 60 seconds (e.g., 6 seconds).

[0017] The difference calculation unit 15 is a functional block that calculates the difference between the integrated received power calculated by the integrated received power calculation unit 13 and the integrated transmitted power calculated by the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14. The battery control unit 16 is a functional block that outputs a charge / discharge command value to the battery 3 at each control timing that is shorter than the width of a predetermined period. As will be described in detail later, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value at each control timing using the difference calculated by the difference calculation unit 15.

[0018] The interval between the control timings is set to any value within a range of 0.1 seconds or more and less than 60 seconds (for example, 1 second). In other words, the control timings are output timings at which the supply and demand control device 10 outputs charge / discharge command values ​​to the storage battery 3 at predetermined time intervals, and are output timings of charge / discharge command values ​​for driving the storage battery 3 with the charge / discharge command values ​​output until the next control timing. Furthermore, the interval between the control timings is set to an interval shorter than the width of the above-mentioned predetermined period, and a value smaller than the value of the predetermined period is selected.

[0019] <Example of operation> Next, a characteristic operation of the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing a specific example of the operation of the supply and demand control device 10. The supply and demand control device 10 performs the operation shown in the flowchart of Fig. 3 at predetermined intervals.

[0020] In the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment, the received power acquisition unit 11 acquires received power from the first power system K1 measured at the connection point C1 at each control timing during a predetermined period (step S1). Next, the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 acquires transmitted power to the second power system K2 measured at the connection point C2 at each control timing during the predetermined period (step S2).

[0021] Next, the integrated received power calculation unit 13 calculates the integrated received power by accumulating the received power for each control timing in the predetermined period acquired by the received power acquisition unit 11 (step S3). Next, the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 calculates the integrated transmitted power by accumulating the transmitted power for each control timing in the predetermined period acquired by the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 (step S4).

[0022] Next, the difference calculation unit 15 calculates the difference between the integrated received power calculated by the integrated received power calculation unit 13 and the integrated transmitted power calculated by the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 for the predetermined period (step S5).

[0023] Next, the battery control unit 16 determines a charge / discharge command value to be output to the battery 3 at each control timing in the next predetermined period. In this case, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value so that the difference value calculated by the difference calculation unit 15 is offset by charging / discharging in accordance with the charge / discharge command value at each control timing in the next predetermined period.

[0024] Furthermore, the battery control unit 16 determines each charge / discharge command value so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value at each control timing from the previous charge / discharge command value is equal to or less than a predetermined value (e.g., 10 kW) (step S6). The fluctuation range refers to the magnitude (absolute value) of the fluctuation of the charge / discharge command value from the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing.

[0025] <Operation result> Next, the operational results of the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment will be specifically described with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5. Fig. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific operational result of the supply and demand control device 10. Fig. 5 is a diagram illustrating another example of a specific operational result of the supply and demand control device 10.

[0026] First, with reference to FIG. 4, a case will be described in which received power P1 and transmitted power P2 do not fluctuate within each predetermined period.

[0027] 4, in the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment, the received power acquisition unit 11 acquires 110 kW as the received power P1 every second (every control timing) during a predetermined period of six seconds from 9:58:54 to 9:59:00. Similarly, the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 acquires 100 kW as the transmitted power P2 every second (every control timing).

[0028] As shown schematically by arrow A1 in Fig. 4, the integrated received power calculation unit 13 calculates 660 kW as the integrated received power (P1 integrated value P1S) for the predetermined period. As shown schematically by arrow A2 in Fig. 4, the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 calculates 600 kW as the integrated transmitted power (P2 integrated value P2S) for the predetermined period.

[0029] The difference calculation unit 15 calculates 60 kW as the difference value PD (=P1S-P2S) obtained by subtracting the P2 integrated value P2S from the P1 integrated value P1S. The battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value for each control timing in the next predetermined period (the period from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06) so that the difference value PD is offset by the charge / discharge in accordance with the charge / discharge command value for each control timing. Furthermore, when determining the charge / discharge command value for each control timing, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value from the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing is 10 kW (predetermined value) or less.

[0030] Specifically, when the battery control unit 16 acquires the difference value PD of 60 kW from the difference calculation unit 15, it obtains an average value of 10 kW by dividing the difference value PD of 60 kW by the number of control timings during the predetermined period, which is six. Then, the battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the obtained average value 10 kW from the charge / discharge command value (0 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: 9:58:59) is less than the predetermined value of 10 kW. Then, the battery control unit 16 determines the obtained average value 10 kW as the charge / discharge command value at each control timing during the next predetermined period and outputs it to the battery 3 at each control timing.

[0031] Thus, as shown schematically by the arrow F1 in Figure 4, the battery control unit 16 allocates the accumulated charging power of 60 kW to offset the difference value PD to the charge / discharge command value at each control timing for a predetermined period of 6 seconds from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06, and determines 10 kW as the charge / discharge command value at each control timing.

[0032] That is, the battery control unit 16 outputs a charge / discharge command value to the battery 3 to instruct the battery 3 to charge at 10 kW at each control timing during the next predetermined period. As a result, the battery 3 is controlled to charge at 10 kW at each control timing from 9:59:00 to 9:59:05.

[0033] 4, the received power acquisition unit 11 acquires 80 kW as the received power P1 every second (every control timing) during a predetermined period of six seconds from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06. Similarly, the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 acquires 100 kW as the transmitted power P2 every second (every control timing).

[0034] As shown schematically by arrow A3 in Fig. 4, the integrated received power calculation unit 13 calculates 480 kW as the integrated received power (P1 integrated value P1S) for the predetermined period. As shown schematically by arrow A4 in Fig. 4, the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 calculates 600 kW as the integrated transmitted power (P2 integrated value P2S) for the predetermined period.

[0035] The difference calculation unit 15 calculates a difference value PD (=P1S-P2S) of -120 kW by subtracting the P2 integrated value P2S from the P1 integrated value P1S. The battery control unit 16 determines a charge / discharge command value for each control timing so that the difference value PD is offset by charging / discharging in accordance with the charge / discharge command value for each control timing in the next predetermined period (the period from 9:59:06 to 9:59:12). Furthermore, when determining the charge / discharge command value for each control timing, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value from the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing is 10 kW (predetermined value) or less.

[0036] Specifically, if the difference between the calculated average value and the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing exceeds a predetermined value, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value at the first control timing in the next predetermined period so that the fluctuation range from the previous charge / discharge command value is equal to or less than the predetermined value. Thereafter, the battery control unit 16 subtracts the determined charge / discharge command value from the difference value PD to update the average value and sequentially determine the charge / discharge command value at the next control timing.

[0037] As shown schematically by the arrow F2 in Figure 4, the battery control unit 16 appropriately allocates the accumulated discharge power of -120 kW to offset the difference value PD to the charge / discharge command value at each control timing for a predetermined period of 6 seconds from 9:59:06 to 9:59:12, thereby determining the charge / discharge command value at each control timing.

[0038] The battery control unit 16 obtains the difference value PD of -120kW for a predetermined period of 6 seconds from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06 from the difference calculation unit 15, and then calculates an average value of -20kW by dividing the difference value PD of -120kW by the number of control timings during the predetermined period, which is 6.

[0039] Then, the battery control unit 16 determines that the difference between the calculated average value -20 kW and the charge / discharge command value of 10 kW at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: time 9:59:05) exceeds the predetermined value of 10 kW. Thereafter, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value at time 9:59:06 to be 0 kW so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value at time 9:59:05 from 10 kW is the maximum predetermined value of 10 kW, and outputs the determined charge / discharge command value to the battery 3. As a result, the battery 3 will not perform charging or discharging from the control timing at time 9:59:06.

[0040] Next, when determining the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:07, battery control unit 16 subtracts the charge / discharge command value of 0 kW at 9:59:06 from the difference value PD (-120 kW), and calculates an average value of -24 kW by dividing the subtracted value by the remaining number of control timings, which is 5. Battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the determined average value of -24 kW from the charge / discharge command value (0 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: 9:59:06) exceeds the predetermined value of 10 kW.

[0041] Then, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:07 to be -10 kW so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:06 from 0 kW becomes the maximum predetermined value of 10 kW, and outputs the determined charge / discharge command value to the battery 3. As a result, the battery 3 discharges 10 kW from the control timing at 9:59:07.

[0042] Next, when determining the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:08, battery control unit 16 subtracts the charge / discharge command value of 0 kW at 9:59:06 and the charge / discharge command value of -10 kW at 9:59:07 from the difference value PD (-120 kW), and calculates an average value of -27.5 kW by dividing the subtracted value by the remaining number of control timings, which is 4. Battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the determined average value of -27.5 kW from the charge / discharge command value (-10 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: 9:59:07) exceeds the predetermined value of 10 kW.

[0043] Thereafter, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:08 to be -20 kW so that the fluctuation range from -10 kW of the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:07 becomes the maximum predetermined value of 10 kW, and outputs the determined charge / discharge command value to the battery 3. As a result, the battery 3 discharges 20 kW from the control timing at 9:59:08.

[0044] Next, when determining the charge / discharge command value at 9:59:09, battery control unit 16 subtracts the charge / discharge command value of 0 kW at 9:59:06, the charge / discharge command value of -10 kW at 9:59:07, and the charge / discharge command value of -20 kW at 9:59:08 from the difference value PD (-120 kW), and calculates an average value of -30 kW by dividing the subtracted value by the remaining number of control timings, which is 3. Battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the determined average value of -30 kW from the charge / discharge command value (-20 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: 9:59:08) is less than the predetermined value of 10 kW.

[0045] Thereafter, the battery control unit 16 determines the calculated average value of -30 kW as the charge / discharge command value at each remaining control timing in the predetermined period, and outputs it to the battery 3. As a result, the battery 3 discharges 30 kW from each of the control timings at 9:59:09, 9:59:10, and 9:59:11.

[0046] Next, with reference to FIG. 5, a case where transmission power P2 fluctuates within each predetermined period will be described as an example.

[0047] 5, in the supply and demand control device 10 of this embodiment, the received power acquisition unit 11 acquires, for example, 110 kW as the received power P1 every second (every control timing) during a predetermined period of six seconds from 9:58:54 to 9:59:00. Similarly, the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 acquires 80 kW, 120 kW, 110 kW, 100 kW, 90 kW, and 120 kW as the transmitted power P2 every second (every control timing).

[0048] As shown schematically by arrow A5 in Fig. 5, the integrated received power calculation unit 13 calculates 660 kW as the integrated received power (P1 integrated value P1S) for the predetermined period. As shown schematically by arrow A6 in Fig. 5, the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 calculates 620 kW as the integrated transmitted power (P2 integrated value P2S) for the predetermined period.

[0049] The difference calculation unit 15 calculates 40 kW as the difference value PD obtained by subtracting the P2 integrated value P2S from the P1 integrated value P1S. The battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value for each control timing in the next predetermined period (the period from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06) so that the difference value PD is offset by the charge / discharge in accordance with the charge / discharge command value for each control timing. Furthermore, when determining the charge / discharge command value for each control timing, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value from the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing is 10 kW (predetermined value) or less.

[0050] Specifically, when battery control unit 16 acquires difference value PD of 60 kW from difference calculation unit 15, it calculates an average value of 6.7 kW by dividing difference value PD of 40 kW by the number of control timings in the predetermined period, which is 6. Then, battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the calculated average value of 6.7 kW from the charge / discharge command value (0 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: time 9:58:59) is equal to or less than the predetermined value of 10 kW.

[0051] The battery control unit 16 then appropriately determines the charge / discharge command values ​​at each control timing during the next specified period and outputs them to the battery 3 so that the average value of the charge / discharge command values ​​at each control timing during the next specified period becomes the calculated average value of 6.7 kW.

[0052] 5, the battery control unit 16 divides the integrated charging power of 40 kW for offsetting the difference value PD into, for example, 6 kW, 6 kW, 7 kW, 7 kW, 7 kW, and 7 kW for a predetermined period of 6 seconds from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06, and determines these as charge / discharge command values ​​at each control timing. That is, the battery control unit 16 outputs charge / discharge command values ​​that instruct the storage battery 3 to charge at 6 kW or 7 kW at each control timing from 9:59:00 to 9:59:05.

[0053] 5, the received power acquisition unit 11 acquires 80 kW as the received power P1 for each second (each control timing) during a predetermined period of six seconds from 9:59:00 to 9:59:06. Similarly, the transmitted power acquisition unit 12 acquires 90 kW, 80 kW, 70 kW, 60 kW, 70 kW, and 80 kW as the transmitted power P2 for each second (each control timing).

[0054] As shown schematically by arrow A7 in Fig. 5, the integrated received power calculation unit 13 calculates 480 kW as the integrated received power (P1 integrated value P1S) for the predetermined period. As shown schematically by arrow A8 in Fig. 5, the integrated transmitted power calculation unit 14 calculates 450 kW as the integrated transmitted power (P2 integrated value P2S) for the predetermined period.

[0055] The difference calculation unit 15 calculates a difference value PD of 30 kW by subtracting the P2 integrated value P2S from the P1 integrated value P1S. The battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value for each control timing in the next predetermined period (the period from 9:59:06 to 9:59:12) so that the difference value PD is offset by charging / discharging in accordance with the charge / discharge command value for each control timing. Furthermore, the battery control unit 16 determines the charge / discharge command value so that the fluctuation range of the charge / discharge command value from the charge / discharge command value at the previous control timing is 10 kW (predetermined value) or less.

[0056] Specifically, when battery control unit 16 acquires difference value PD of 30 kW from difference calculation unit 15, it calculates an average value of 5 kW by dividing difference value PD of 30 kW by the number of control timings during the predetermined period, which is six. Then, battery control unit 16 determines that the fluctuation range of the calculated average value of 5 kW from the charge / discharge command value (7 kW) at the previous control timing (the last control timing of the previous predetermined period: 9:59:05) is less than the predetermined value of 10 kW. Then, battery control unit 16 determines the calculated average value of 5 kW as the charge / discharge command value at each control timing during the next predetermined period, and outputs it to battery 3 at each control timing.

[0057] 5, the battery control unit 16 allocates the integrated charging power of 30 kW for offsetting the difference value PD to the charge / discharge command values ​​at each control timing for the predetermined period of 6 seconds from 9:59:06 to 9:59:12, and determines 5 kW as the charge / discharge command value at each control timing. That is, the battery control unit 16 outputs charge / discharge command values ​​that instruct the storage battery 3 to charge at 5 kW at each control timing from 9:59:06 to 9:59:12.

[0058] As described above, the supply and demand control device 10 of the microgrid MG of this embodiment includes the storage battery control unit 16 that outputs charge and discharge command values ​​to the storage batteries 3 provided in the microgrid MG at each control timing that is shorter than the width of the predetermined period. The storage battery control unit 16 determines and outputs charge and discharge command values ​​at each control timing so that the difference calculated by the difference calculation unit 15 is offset by charging and discharging in accordance with the charge and discharge command value at each control timing in the next predetermined period, and so that the fluctuation range of the charge and discharge command value at each control timing from the previous charge and discharge command value is equal to or less than a predetermined value. As a result, the supply and demand control device 10 of the microgrid MG of this embodiment can reliably balance supply and demand in the microgrid MG by appropriately responding to changes in power flow on the order of seconds, as exemplified in FIG. 4 or 5.

[0059] On the other hand, in the comparative example in which the charge / discharge command value is changed at each control timing, as shown in the comparative example column of Figure 5, the charge / discharge command value increases or decreases in accordance with changes in the value PD of the difference between the received power P1 and the transmitted power P2 at each control timing. Therefore, in the comparative example, the charge / discharge command value had to be changed, for example, from a charge / discharge command value for charging 30 kW at 9:58:55 to a charge / discharge command value for discharging 10 kW at 9:58:56, thereby increasing the fluctuation of the charge / discharge command value. Therefore, in the comparative example, the charge / discharge power of the storage battery fluctuated significantly on the order of seconds, placing an excessive burden on the storage battery, and it was difficult to balance the supply and demand of the microgrid MG by appropriately responding to changes in power flow on the order of seconds.
