The classical method for selection is usually based only on a single criterion analysis, and it is defined by thermal or economic aspects. The problem of optimal dispatch of DG is typical example of optimization, because it differs from the classical problem of generation dispatch in the power system, due to the specific criteria related to the DG interconnection. The most important goals are to maximize the renewable production and to minimize the total cost, while satisfying additional constraints related to the operation of a distribution network. As there are many DGs in a distribution network, it is very complicated to decide the optimal DG outputs to satisfy all the criteria and constraints imposed by the distribution network. Another problem is the lack of the dispatcher control over DGs, and very often, the only available action is to switch on or off the generator. Finally, network operator and DG owner perspective are often opposed regarding appropriate control action in the network. In this paper, a multicriteria decision support based on AHP (analytical hierarchical processes) method is proposed for the choice of the dispatching action. The method is illustrated on the choice of the DG to be switched off in the case or reverse power flow.展开更多

The circumvention of the use of iterative search schemes for this crucial step is the innovation inherent in the proposed dispatch procedure. The feasible operating region of the CHP unit three is taken into account in the proposed CHPED problem model, whereas the optimal dispatch of power/heat outputs of CHP unit is determined using the direct Lagrange multiplier solution algorithm. The proposed algorithm is applied to a test system with four units and results are provided.

文摘A generalized formulation for short-term scheduling of steam power system in iron and steel industry under the time-of-use(TOU)power price was presented,with minimization of total operational cost including fuel cost,equipment maintenance cost and the charge of exchange power with main grid.The model took into account the varying nature of surplus byproduct gas flows,several practical technical constraints and the impact of TOU power price.All major types of utility equipments,involving boilers,steam turbines,combined heat and power(CHP)units,and waste heat and energy recovery generators(WHERG),were separately modeled using thermodynamic balance equations and regression method.In order to solve this complex nonlinear optimization model,a new improved particle swarm optimization(IPSO)algorithm was proposed by incorporating time-variant parameters,a selfadaptive mutation scheme and efficient constraint handling strategies.Finally,a case study for a real industrial example was used for illustrating the model and validating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

文摘The traditional energy hub based model has difficulties in clearly describing the state transition and transition conditions of the energy unit in the integrated energy system(IES).Therefore,this study proposes a state transition modeling method for an IES based on a cyber-physical system(CPS)to optimize the state transition of energy unit in the IES.This method uses the physical,integration,and optimization layers as a three-layer modeling framework.The physical layer is used to describe the physical models of energy units in the IES.In the integration layer,the information flow is integrated into the physical model of energy unit in the IES to establish the state transition model,and the transition conditions between different states of the energy unit are given.The optimization layer aims to minimize the operating cost of the IES and enables the operating state of energy units to be transferred to the target state.Numerical simulations show that,compared with the traditional modeling method,the state transition modeling method based on CPS achieves the observability of the operating state of the energy unit and its state transition in the dispatching cycle,which obtains an optimal state of the energy unit and further reduces the system operating costs.

文摘This paper presents a finite-time economic model predictive control(MPC)algorithm that can be used for frequency regulation and optimal load dispatch in multi-area power systems.Economic MPC can be used in a power system to ensure frequency stability,real-time economic optimization,control of the system and optimal load dispatch from it.A generalized terminal penalty term was used,and the finite-time convergence of the system was guaranteed.The effectiveness of the proposed model predictive control algorithm was verified by simulating a power system,which had two areas connected by an AC tie line.The simulation results demonstrated the effectiveness of the algorithm.

文摘China consumes significant amount of natural gas in winter.The integrated community energy utilization system(ICEUS)cannot stabilize the output of electricity and heat if there is a shortage of natural gas.The operation cost of the system still needs improvement.An energy supply structure using garbage power as the core of ICEUS was established in the study.The optimal dispatchingmodel of ICEUS was established using the regulating characteristic of the community load.The sine-cosine algorithm(SCA)based on nonlinear factors and segmented weight was presented to solve the optimal dispatching model of ICEUS.From the simulation results,compared with particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO),SCA,exponential sinecosine algorithm(ESCA),and parabolic sine-cosine algorithm(PSCA),the daily operation cost of ICEUS was reduced by the improved SCA by 4.4%,2.9%,2.6%and 4.1%,respectively,in winter.The same was true in summer.The daily system operating cost was effectively reduced by the algorithm proposed in the study.The cost benefits of the optimized ICEUS operation was realized.
文摘In the power market environment, due to the uncertainty of the reservoir inflow and the pool purchase price, it is very important to research power generation risk dispatch of hydropower plants, taking into consideration the benefits and risk control of both sides. This paper investigates power generation risk dispatch of hydropower plants in the market environment, and proposes a mathematical model which considers maximization of benefits and risk control, reflects control willingness of risk and benefits, resolves it with the PSO algorithm, finding more economic and reasonable results. The feasibility and validity of the model and resolving methods are verified by an example.
文摘The optimization process of embedded, or DG (distributed generation) is a very complex task, and it should be evaluated and compared by means of multi-criteria methods of analysis. The classical method for selection is usually based only on a single criterion analysis, and it is defined by thermal or economic aspects. The problem of optimal dispatch of DG is typical example of optimization, because it differs from the classical problem of generation dispatch in the power system, due to the specific criteria related to the DG interconnection. The most important goals are to maximize the renewable production and to minimize the total cost, while satisfying additional constraints related to the operation of a distribution network. As there are many DGs in a distribution network, it is very complicated to decide the optimal DG outputs to satisfy all the criteria and constraints imposed by the distribution network. Another problem is the lack of the dispatcher control over DGs, and very often, the only available action is to switch on or off the generator. Finally, network operator and DG owner perspective are often opposed regarding appropriate control action in the network. In this paper, a multicriteria decision support based on AHP (analytical hierarchical processes) method is proposed for the choice of the dispatching action. The method is illustrated on the choice of the DG to be switched off in the case or reverse power flow.
