In response, shared energy storage systems (SESSs) offer a more cohesive and efficient use of ESS, providing more accessible and cost-effective energy storage solutions to overcome these obstacles. To enhance the profitability of SESSs, this paper designs a multi-time-scale resource allocation strategy based on long-term contracts and real-time rental business models. We initially construct a life cycle cost model for SESS and introduce a method to estimate the degradation costs of multiple battery groups by cycling numbers and depth of discharge within the SESS. Subsequently, we design various long-term contracts from both capacity and energy perspectives, establishing associated models and real-time rental models. Lastly, multi-time-scale resource allocation based on the decomposition of user demand is proposed. Numerical analysis validates that the business model based on long-term contracts excels over models operating solely in the real-time market in economic viability and user satisfaction, effectively reducing battery degradation, and leveraging the aggregation effect for SESS can generate an additional increase of 10.7% in net revenue.","PeriodicalId":51326,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy","volume":"12 2","pages":"454-465"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10460468","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140291021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the potential value of MG with ES in the reserve market has not been well realized. From the viewpoint of reserve provider, a novel day-ahead model is proposed comprehensively considering the effect of the real-time scheduling process, which differs from the model that MG with ES acts as a reserve consumer in most existing studies. Based on the proposed model, MG with ES can schedule its internal resources to give reserve service to other external systems as well as to realize optimal self-scheduling. Considering that the proposed model is just in concept and cannot be directly solved, a multi-stage robust optimization reserve provision method is proposed, which leverages the structure of model constraints. Next, the original model can be converted into a mixed-integer linear programming problem and the model is tractable with guaranteed solution feasibility.

A multi-stage provincial power expansion planning (PPEP) model is proposed to simulate the power expansion planning at different stages of the power systems rich in renewable energy generation. This model covers 16 types of power supply, considering macro-policy demands and micro-operation constraints. The stand-alone capacity aggregation model for coal-based units within the PPEP model allows for accurate construction and retirement with different stand-alone capacities. Moreover, the soft dynamic time warping (soft-DTW) based \u0000<tex>$K-text{medoids}$</tex>\u0000 technique is adopted to generate typical scenarios for balancing the model accuracy and solution efficiency. Additionally, a multi-market trading equilibrium (MMTE) mechanism is proposed to address the differences in the levelized cost of energy between the coal-based and renewable-based units by participating in energy and ancillary service markets. Since the coal-based units take on the task of providing ancillary services from renewable-based units in the ancillary service market, the MMTE mechanism can effectively equalize the profits of both by having renewable-based units purchase ancillary services from coal-based units and pay for them, thus improving the motivation of coal-based units. A case study in Xinjiang province, China, verifies the effectiveness of the planning results of the PPEP model and the profit equilibrium realization of the MMTE mechanism.","PeriodicalId":51326,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy","volume":"12 5","pages":"1652-1665"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10520020","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142328378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the stochastic and volatile charging behaviors pose a challenge for EV fleets to engage directly in multi-agent cooperation. To unlock the scheduling potential of EVs, this paper proposes a source-load-storage cooperative low-carbon scheduling strategy considering V2G aggregators. The uncertainty of EV charging patterns is managed through a rolling-horizon control framework, where the scheduling and control horizons are adaptively adjusted according to the availability periods of EVs. Moreover, a Minkowski-sum based aggregation method is employed to evaluate the scheduling potential of aggregated EV fleets within a given scheduling horizon. This method effectively reduces the variable dimension while preserving the charging and discharging constraints of individual EVs. Subsequently, a Nash bargaining based cooperative scheduling model involving a distribution system operator (DSO), an EV aggregator (EVA), and a load aggregator (LA) is established to maximize the social welfare and improve the low-carbon performance of the system. This model is solved by the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm in a distributed manner, with privacy of participants fully preserved. The proposed strategy is proven to achieve the objective of low-carbon economic operation.","PeriodicalId":51326,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy","volume":"12 2","pages":"440-453"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10453376","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140291201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the intelligent classification of SM fault types faces significant challenges owing to the complexity of features and the imbalance between fault categories. To address these issues, this study presents a fault diagnosis method for SM incorporating three distinct modules. The first module employs a combination of standardization, data imputation, and feature extraction to enhance the data quality, thereby facilitating improved training and learning by the classifiers. To enhance the classification performance, the data imputation method considers feature correlation measurement and sequential imputation, and the feature extractor utilizes the discriminative enhanced sparse autoencoder. To tackle the interclass imbalance of data with discrete and continuous features, the second module introduces an assisted classifier generative adversarial network, which includes a discrete feature generation module. Finally, a novel Stacking ensemble classifier for SM fault diagnosis is developed. In contrast to previous studies, we construct a two-layer heuristic optimization framework to address the synchronous dynamic optimization problem of the combinations and hyper-parameters of the Stacking ensemble classifier, enabling better handling of complex classification tasks using SM data. The proposed fault diagnosis method for SM via two-layer stacking ensemble optimization and data augmentation is trained and validated using SM fault data collected from 2010 to 2018 in Zhejiang Province, China. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in improving the accuracy of SM fault diagnosis, particularly for minority classes.","PeriodicalId":51326,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy","volume":"12 4","pages":"1272-1284"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10433422","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141769433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on this, an evaluation system for the environmental benefits of DES is constructed to balance the interests between the aggregator and the power system operator. Then, an optimal low-carbon dispatching for a virtual power plant (VPP) with aggregated DES is constructed, where-in energy value and cleanness value are both considered. To achieve the goal, a green attribute labeling method is used to establish a correlation constraint between the nodal carbon potential of the distribution network (DN) and DES behavior, but as a cost, it brings multiple nonlinear relationships. Subsequently, a solution method based on the convex envelope (CE) linear re-construction method is proposed for the multivariate nonlinear programming problem, thereby improving solution efficiency and feasibility. Finally, the simulation verification based on the IEEE 33-bus DN is conducted.
