Abstract:
According to the complementary characteristics of electrochemical energy storage and hydrogen storage, an integrated optimization model for the configuration and operation of a hybrid energy storage system is given, including electrochemical energy storage, hydrogen storage proposed and an intelligent algorithm. The model is based on a two-layer decision optimization problem, in which two different time dimensions of the hybrid energy storage system configuration and operation are solved in upper and lower layers, and the interaction between them is considered. A reinforcement learning proximal policy optimization(PPO) algorithm is used to solve the two-layer optimization model. By comparing the results of applying various traditional algorithms to solve the scenery data of a region in Gansu Province, it is verified that the used algorithm has the highest adaptability and the fastest convergence speed in a complex environment. The results show that the application of this model can reduce the abandoning rate of wind and solar power by 24% and effectively improve the comprehensive benefit of the system, and that hydrogen storage as a capacity-based energy storage configuration is not limited by topographical factors and is suitable for diverse application scenarios, thus providing an application demonstration for the widespread deployment of hydrogen storage, a new form of energy storage, in the whole country.
