Optimal Operation Scheduling of Multi-Energy Complementary Systems Including Offshore Wind Power

Abstract

With the rapid development of offshore wind power in China, offshore wind power is accounting for an increasing proportion of the whole installed power generation in China, which put forward higher requirements for operation scheduling of multi-energy complementary systems including offshore wind power. However, existing studies have paid little attention to the complementary output scheduling of multi-energy systems with a high proportion of offshore wind power, this phenomenon is not conducive to the realization of reasonable operation scheduling. To realize the reasonable operation scheduling of multi-energy systems with a high proportion of offshore wind power. Firstly, the output characteristics of offshore wind power were analyzed and summarized, and modeling was conducted from the perspectives of time distribution, spatial correlation, volatility and randomness, which would serve as the theoretical basis for subsequent researches. Secondly, the complementary rule among offshore wind power and the multi-energy system was analyzed, and the complementary characteristic index was put forward. Then the safety operation was taken as the constraint, and the two-stage operation model of the integrated energy system was established, which considers the auxiliary service costs. In the first stage, the initial generation scheduling was developed according to the day-ahead forecast values of the offshore wind power; in the second stage, the more accurate intra-day operation scheduling was further achieved by considering the intra-day forecast values of offshore wind power and the day-ahead scheduling results. Costs of rotating reserve capacity could be reduced by correcting the deviation of generating capacity, then the revenue-maximizing scheduling strategies were obtained and the output of the pumped-storage power plants was optimized. The effectiveness of the model proposed in this paper was verified based on the simulation examples. Compared with the traditional scheduling strategy, the scheduling strategy considering auxiliary service cost proposed in this paper can promote the consumption of offshore wind power, reduce the wind curtailment proportion and improve the electricity sales revenues in the end. The research results in this paper provide a reference for the reasonable consumption of multi-energy complementary systems with a high proportion of offshore wind power and improving electricity sales revenues
