The present invention relates to a control apparatus, a control method, and a program.
An electric power generation apparatus on a consumer side is connected to an electric power distribution network through a device such as a Home Energy Management System (HEMS) or a distribution board. An electric power company receives information on a manufacturer name, a model name, a rated output, and the like of each apparatus from a manufacturer of various electric power generation apparatuses, and performs an examination by a power-system interconnection deliberation with respect to each apparatus. By permitting only apparatuses having a certain level of electric power quality to connect to the electric power distribution network, fluctuation of electric power quality (fluctuation of electric power value, a voltage value, and values of a frequency and the like) of the electric power distribution network caused by the electric power generation apparatus is suppressed within a predetermined range.
Related techniques are disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2.
Patent Document 1 discloses a system control system that determines a control target value by a moving average of a voltage value of an interconnection point of an electric power system, and determines a charge and discharge instruction to an electric power storage apparatus that performs a charge and a discharge of electric power on the electric power system through the above-described interconnection point, on the basis of a deviation between the determined control target value and a current voltage value.
Patent Document 2 discloses electric power supply system including a prediction unit that predicts an electric power consumption amount and a generation electric power amount at an electric power consumption point on the basis of weather information at the electric power consumption point at a predetermined future time, a voltage distribution estimation unit that estimates a voltage distribution in an electric power system based on the electric power consumption amount at the electric power consumption point predicted by the prediction unit and a generation electric power amount by a distribution-type electric power generation apparatus, and a supply determination unit that determines whether or not it is possible to normally execute an electric power supply to the electric power consumption point at the predetermined future time on the basis of the voltage distribution.
In the future, in a case where electric power generation apparatuses connected to the electric power distribution network rapidly increase, it is expected that it is physically difficult to perform the described-above examination (power-system interconnection deliberation) on all the electric power generation apparatuses.

First, the overall image and a problem to be solved of a system of the present example embodiment will be described using
The electric power generation apparatus 20 has an electric power generation element and a power conditioner. As an example, the electric power generation apparatus 20 is an apparatus that generates electric power using natural energy such as sunlight, wind power, and geothermal power. In this case, the electric power generation element is a solar cell panel or the like, and generates electric power using natural energy. The power conditioner adjusts electric power supplied from the electric power generation element to an electric power distribution network.
The energy accumulation apparatus 30 is an apparatus that accumulates the supplied electric power as predetermined energy. For example, a storage battery that accumulates the supplied electric power as electric power, a heat pump water heater that converts the supplied electric power into thermal energy and accumulates the electric power, and the like are considered, however, the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is not limited thereto.
The control apparatus 10 reduces a fluctuation of electric power quality of the electric power distribution network caused by the electric power generation apparatus 20 by controlling an accumulation of energy to the energy accumulation apparatus 30 and an output of energy from the energy accumulation apparatus 30.
In the present example embodiment, the control apparatus 10 provides adjustment power using the energy accumulation apparatus 30 in a case where a change amount of a total generation electric power [W] with respect to time of a plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 is large. The electric power accumulated to or consumed from the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is controlled corresponding to a time change amount of the total generation electric power. Therefore, it is possible to stabilize the electric power [W] supplied from the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 to the electric power distribution network.
However, in the above-described control, the energy accumulation apparatus 30 having an energy input and output amount sufficient to cope with the time change amount of the total generation electric power [W] of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 is required. In a case where the situation of securing the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is not suitable, a situation in which the time change amount cannot be coped with may occur due to an input and output shortage or the like.
In addition, in a case where the situation of securing the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is not suitable, a situation in which accumulation or output of the energy cannot be executed may occur due to a shortage of an empty capacity [Wh], a shortage of an accumulated energy amount [Wh], or the like.
The problem can be solved, for example, by acquiring an electric power generation schedule of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 in advance, calculating a necessary amount of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 based on the electric power generation schedule, and suitably securing the energy accumulation apparatus 30.
However, in a case where the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 include an electric power generation apparatus 20 with poor quality, the fluctuation of the total generation electric power [W] may occur. In a case where the necessary amount of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is calculated based on the electric power generation schedule of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 without the consideration of such fluctuation, a shortage of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 may occur. The control apparatus 10 of the present example embodiment includes a unit for solving the problem. Hereinafter, as an example, a control apparatus, a control method, and a program for compensating for electric power quality by output control will be described in detail. Note that it is possible to compensate for the electric power quality using the present invention by the control of a voltage or a frequency as well.
The information acquisition unit 11 acquires the electric power generation schedule and the fluctuation amount of the output of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20.
The electric power generation schedule is a schedule for a predetermined time (for example, one day) and indicates a plan value of the generation electric power [W]. The electric power generation schedule is determined according to the weather of the day, the performance of each electric power generation apparatus 20, or the like. In a method of determining the electric power generation schedule, any technique may be adopted.
The information acquisition unit 11 may acquire the electric power generation schedule of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 from the external apparatus. In addition, the information acquisition unit 11 may hold attribute information such as installation positions and performances of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 in advance, and generate the electric power generation schedule of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 using the information or information (for example, a weather forecast at a predetermined position or the like) acquired on the basis of the information.
The fluctuation amount of the output is a change amount of an actual output value [W] with respect to time. For example, the fluctuation amount is indicated by ±a (a≥0) [W/sec]. Another example of the fluctuation amount includes a frequency component excluding a commercial frequency in a power spectrum (frequency characteristic) of time-varying output, and the like. For example, such a fluctuation amount is considered to be caused by an output performance of the power conditioner.
In a case where the fluctuation amount of each electric power generation apparatus 20 is measured by a manufacturer or the like of the electric power generation apparatus 20 and is published, the fluctuation amount may be used in the present example embodiment.
As another example, the fluctuation amount of each electric power generation apparatus 20 may be measured by causing the electric power generation apparatus 20 to perform a test operation. For example, the electric power generation apparatus 20 may be caused to perform a test operation of outputting a predetermined electric power [W], and an actual output value [W] at that time may be measured for a predetermined time. In addition, the frequency component excluding the commercial frequency in the power spectrum (frequency characteristic) of time-varying output, and the like may be calculated in addition to ±a [W/sec] obtained from the measurement result.
The control apparatus 10 may store the fluctuation amount of each electric power generation apparatus 20 obtained as described above in a storage unit (not shown) in association with each electric power generation apparatus 20 in advance. The storage unit may be included in the control apparatus 10 or may be included in another external apparatus configured to be communicable with the control apparatus 10. In addition, the information acquisition unit 11 may acquire the fluctuation amount of each electric power generation apparatus 20 from the storage unit.
In addition, each electric power generation apparatus 20 may store the fluctuation amount of own apparatus (each electric power generation apparatus 20) obtained as described above. In addition, the information acquisition unit 11 may acquire the fluctuation amount of each control apparatus 10 from each control apparatus 10.
The first calculation unit 12 calculates the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 on the basis of the electric power generation schedule of each electric power generation apparatus 20 acquired by the information acquisition unit 11. In addition, the first calculation unit 12 calculates the total fluctuation amount at each timing in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 on the basis of the electric power generation schedule and the fluctuation amount of each electric power generation apparatus 20 acquired by the information acquisition unit 11.
The electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 is obtained by adding the generation electric power [W] of each electric power generation apparatus 20 at each timing.
It is possible to calculate the total fluctuation amount at each timing in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20, for example, as follows.
“First Calculation Method”
The first calculation unit 12 may calculate ±(sum of a's value of electric power generation apparatuses 20 scheduled to perform an electric power generation operation at a first timing) as the total fluctuation amount at the first timing in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20.
For example, it is assumed that first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 are present as the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 and respective fluctuation amounts of the first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 are ±a1 to ±a3. In addition, it is assumed that the electric power generation schedule determines that the first and second electric power generation apparatuses 20 perform the electric power generation operation at the first timing (for example, 9 o'clock 00 minutes) and the third electric power generation apparatus 20 does not perform the electric power generation operation at the first timing (for example, 9 o'clock 00 minutes). In this case, the first calculation unit 12 calculates ±(a1+a2) as the total fluctuation amount of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 at the first timing.
In addition, it is assumed that the electric power generation schedule determines that the first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 perform the electric power generation operation at a second timing (for example, 13 o'clock 00 minutes). In this case, the first calculation unit 12 calculates ±(a1+a2+a3) as the total fluctuation amount of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 at the second timing.
“Second Calculation Method”
The first calculation unit 12 may calculate ±amax as the total fluctuation amount at the first timing in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20. The amax means the largest value among a's value of electric power generation apparatuses 20 scheduled to perform the electric power generation operation at the first timing.
For example, it is assumed that first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 are present as the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20, the respective fluctuation amounts of the first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 are ±a1 to ±a3, and a relation of a1<a2<a3 is satisfied. In addition, it is assumed that the electric power generation schedule determines that the first and second electric power generation apparatuses 20 perform the electric power generation operation at the first timing (for example, 9 o'clock 00 minutes) and the third electric power generation apparatus 20 does not to perform the electric power generation operation at the first timing (for example, 9 o'clock 00 minutes). In this case, the first calculation unit 12 determines ±a2 as the total fluctuation amount of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 at the first timing.
In addition, it is assumed that the electric power generation schedule determines that the first to third electric power generation apparatuses 20 perform the electric power generation operation at a second timing (for example, 13 o'clock 00 minutes). In this case, the first calculation unit 12 determines ±a3 as the total fluctuation amount of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 at the second timing.
Returning to
For example, the second calculation unit 13 generates the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 so as to satisfy the following two conditions. Hereinafter description will be made with the assumption that the generation electric power P [W] and a predetermined value M [W] corresponding to each timing are values averaged for every 30 minutes.
The description will be given using
The second calculation unit 13 generates the control schedule for causing the energy accumulation apparatus 30 to output (discharge) (M −P) [W] at the timing when the generation electric power P [W] in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 is smaller than the predetermined value M (M ≥0) corresponding to each timing, that is, in the time slots from 0 o'clock to 10 o'clock and from 15 o'clock to 24 o'clock (refer to D of
In addition, the second calculation unit 13 generates the control schedule for accumulating (charging) (P−M) [W] in the energy accumulation apparatus 30 at the timing when the generation electric power P [W] in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 is larger than the predetermined value M (M ≥0) corresponding to each timing, that is, in the time slot from 10 o'clock to 15 o'clock (refer to D of
As described above, the second calculation unit 13 calculates the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30, and thus it is possible to secure supply reserve.
Note that the second calculation unit 13 may generate the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 in consideration of the total fluctuation amount. That is, the second calculation unit 13 may calculate the fluctuation amount at each timing in the control schedule (refer to D of
For example, the second calculation unit 13 may adopt (determine) the total fluctuation amount at each timing as the fluctuation amount at each timing in the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 calculated as described above. In a case the determination is made as described above, the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 of D of
For example, in a time slot when the energy accumulation apparatus 30 is caused to output (M −P) [W] as the supply reserve (hereinafter, an output time slot), in a case where the total fluctuation amount at each timing is calculated as ±An [W/sec], the second calculation unit 13 may calculate the control schedule by setting (M −P+k*An) [W] at each of a plurality of timings as a lower limit of the output [W] to be secured by the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 (refer to E of
In addition, the second calculation unit 13 may calculate an electric power amount [Wh] output in a case where an output continues in (M −P+k*An) [W] during the output time slot, as a lower limit value of an electric power amount [Wh] to be accumulated in the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30.
In addition, in a time slot when energy accumulation apparatus 30 is caused to accumulate (P−M) [W] (hereinafter, an accumulation time slot), in a case where the total fluctuation amount at each timing is calculated as ±An [W/sec], the second calculation unit 13 may calculate the control schedule by setting (P−M+k*An) [W] at each of the plurality of timings as the lower limit of the charge (accumulation) electric power [W] to be secured by the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 (refer to E of
In addition, the second calculation unit 13 may calculate an electric power amount [Wh] accumulated in a case where an accumulation continues in (P −M+k*An) [W] during the accumulation time slot, as a lower limit value of an empty capacity [Wh] to be prepared in the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30.
In addition, after the second calculation unit 13 calculates the control schedule (the electric power [W] to be secured, the charge (accumulation) electric power [W] to be secured, the electric power amount [Wh] to be accumulated, the empty capacity [Wh] to be prepared, and the like) in the whole of the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 as described above, the second calculation unit 13 may determine the control schedule of each energy accumulation apparatus 30.
For example, a case is considered in which in the output time slot when the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 are caused to output (M −P) [W] as the supply reserve, in a case where the total fluctuation amount at each timing is calculated as ±An [W/sec], the second calculation unit 13 calculates (M −P+k*An) [W] as a lower limit of the output [W] to be secured by the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 and calculates (M −P+k*An)/2 [Wh] that is an electric power amount [Wh] output when output is continued with a 30-minute average value of (M −P+k*An) [W], as a lower limit of the electric power amount [Wh] to be accumulated in the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30. In a case where the number of controllable energy accumulation apparatuses 30 is N, when a sum value [W] of the output of the energy accumulation apparatuses 30 is larger than (M −P+k*An) [W], (M −P+k*An)/N [W] is distributed to each energy accumulation apparatus 30. In addition, when the accumulated electric power amount [Wh] is larger than (M −P+k*An)/2 [Wh]. (M −P+k*An)/2N [Wh] is distributed to each energy accumulation apparatus 30.
In addition, a case is considered in which in the accumulation time slot when the energy accumulation apparatuses 30 are caused to charge (accumulate) (P−M) [W] as the supply reserve, in a case where the total fluctuation amount at each timing is calculated as ±An [W/sec], the second calculation unit 13 calculates (P−M+k*An) [W] as a lower limit of the charge (accumulation) electric power [W] to be secured by the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 and calculates (P−M+k*An)/2 [Wh] that is a charge (accumulation) electric power amount [Wh] when output is continued with a 30-minute average value of (P −M+k*An) [W], as a lower limit of the empty capacity [Wh] to be prepared in the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30. In a case where the number of controllable energy accumulation apparatuses 30 is N, when a sum value [W] of the charge (accumulation) electric power of the energy accumulation apparatuses 30 is larger than (P−M+k*An) [W], (P−M+k*An)/N [W] is distributed to each energy accumulation apparatus 30. In addition, when the empty capacity [Wh] to be prepared is larger than (P−M+k*An)/2 [Wh]. (P−M+k*An)/2N [Wh] is distributed to each energy accumulation apparatus 30.
Here, although the example in which the equal distribution is performed on the N energy accumulation apparatuses 30 is shown, a proportional distribution may also be performed according to a ratio of the empty capacity [Wh], a ratio of the accumulated electric power amount [Wh], a ratio of a rated output [W], or the like.
The second calculation unit 13 determines the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 as described above on the basis of the electric power generation schedule of the electric power generation apparatus 20.
Next, an example of a flow of a process of the control apparatus 10 of the present example embodiment will be described using a flowchart of
First, the information acquisition unit 11 acquires the electric power generation schedule and the fluctuation amount of the output of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 (S10).
Then, The first calculation unit 12 calculates the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 and the total fluctuation amount at each timing in the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20, on the basis of the electric power generation schedule and the fluctuation amount of each of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 acquired in S10 (S11).
Then, the second calculation unit 13 determines the control schedule of the whole of the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 based on the electric power generation schedule and the total fluctuation amount of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 (S12).
After S12, the second calculation unit 13 determines the control schedule of each energy accumulation apparatus 30 based on the control schedule of the whole of the plurality of energy accumulation apparatuses 30 (S13). Details are as described above.
According to the present example embodiment described above, it is possible to calculate not only the electric power generation schedule of the whole of the plurality of electric power generation apparatuses 20 but also the total fluctuation amount at each timing indicated by the electric power generation schedule. In addition, it is possible to determine the control schedule of the energy accumulation apparatus 30 based on the calculation result.
The control schedule of each energy accumulation apparatus 30 is determined in order to output or accumulate electric power on the basis of the control schedule and the fluctuation amount described above. Therefore, it is possible to reduce an occurrence of an output shortage, an energy shortage, an empty capacity shortage, and the like caused by a fluctuation amount. As a result, it is possible to cause the energy accumulation apparatus 30 to perform a suitable operation and to stabilize electric power quality of an electric power distribution network.
