Power Trading System Shortening Transmission Distance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing power trading systems face limitations in shortening the power transmission and distribution distance, which restricts the efficiency of power trading and increases consignment charges.
Innovation Solution
A power trading system that includes an order reception unit and a power supply and demand planning unit, which plans power supply and demand between contractors by utilizing power from third and fourth contractors with shorter transmission and distribution distances, thereby reducing the overall transmission distance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Length of moving object
If power trading is conducted between first contractor and second contractor directly, then trading simplicity is maintained, but power transmission and distribution distance cannot be shortened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces third and fourth contractors as intermediary entities to facilitate power trading between the first and second contractors. By routing power through these intermediaries with closer proximity, the transmission distance is reduced while maintaining the original trading relationship structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the direct power transmission path into two separate transmission paths: one from the first contractor to the fourth contractor, and another from the third contractor to the second contractor. This segmentation allows for shorter individual transmission distances compared to the direct path.
2Productivity
If consignment charge increases with power transmission and distribution distance, then network utilization is fairly compensated, but trading efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameter of transmission distance by utilizing third and fourth contractors positioned closer to the original trading partners. This parameter change reduces the transmission distance, thereby reducing consignment charges while maintaining trading efficiency.
3Length of moving object
If order matching is performed at the point of time, then trading simplicity is maintained, but power transmission and distribution distance cannot be optimized
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by pre-identifying third and fourth contractors who can serve as intermediaries before the actual power trading occurs. This preliminary identification enables optimized transmission path selection while maintaining the simplicity of the order matching process.

AI summary
A power trading system includes an order reception unit configured to receive a sell order and a purchase order of power, and a power supply and demand planning unit configured to plan power supply and demand between a first contractor and a second contractor. When a total value of a power transmission and distribution distance between a third contractor who sells power and the second contractor and a power transmission and distribution distance between a fourth contractor who purchases power and the first contractor is shorter than a power transmission and distribution distance between the first contractor and the second contractor, the power supply and demand planning unit plans the power supply and demand including power supply from the third contractor to the second contractor and power supply from the first contractor to the fourth contractor.
