Aggregation Dispatch and Control Strategies for Multi-Type Loads in Industrial Parks

Abstract

With the continuous expansion of renewable energy construction, the power system requires a larger-scale flexible dispatchable and controllable resource for power balance. Fully tapping into the power regulation capability of multi-type loads in industrial parks, making them a low-cost flexible dispatchable and controllable resource, is an effective approach to establish power regulation capability at scale in the new power system. However, the control characteristics of multi-type loads in industrial parks vary greatly, and their control delay characteristics, response speed, and sustainable response time are all different. Traditional dispatch and control methods cannot achieve precise control of the massive and multi-type loads in industrial parks. Therefore, this paper establishes unified models for the control characteristics of multi-type loads in industrial parks, quantitatively characterizes their control delay characteristics, start–stop characteristics, and control response speed. Based on this, the aggregated dispatch and control model and dispatch and control strategy for multi-type loads in industrial parks are developed, which provide a predictive control rate for individual loads considering the delay and segmented response characteristics to achieve precise aggregation control of multi-type loads in industrial parks. Simulation results show that the aggregated dispatch and control model and its aggregated dispatch and control strategy achieve precise control of multi-type loads in industrial parks. Flexible dispatchable and controllable loads can provide low-cost power regulation capability for the new power system.
