This invention belongs to the field of
smart grid technology, specifically relating to a method and apparatus for assessing inter-grid spatiotemporal mutual assistance demand considering the correlation of multiple source loads. The steps include: acquiring and preprocessing basic data of the distribution network to be analyzed; establishing a
power grid operation
simulation model to extrapolate the operating status of each
power grid at different times throughout the year; calculating the local net imbalance power of each
power grid at different times; constructing a multi-grid multi-source load random variable vector to generate a set of typical operating scenarios and
scenario probabilities that satisfy
spatiotemporal correlation characteristics; establishing and solving a spatiotemporal mutual assistance demand assessment model; and based on the solution results, calculating the expected mutual assistance power, mutual assistance dependence, deficit fulfillment rate, and
interconnection capacity demand indicators between grids to form the spatiotemporal mutual assistance demand assessment results between power grids. This invention can accurately quantify inter-grid mutual assistance demand, providing a scientific and practical quantitative basis for distribution network planning and coordinated operation.
