  • Publication number: 20240097443
    Abstract: A source-network-load-storage coordination dispatching method in a background of a coupling of renewable energy sources, including: taking an expectation of a minimum grid operating cost in a dispatching cycle as an objective function; generating an approximate value function of an output of a set for generating electricity from renewable energy sources and a user load, and constructing a source-network-load-storage coordination dispatching model with combination of the objective function; obtaining forecast data of the output of a set for generating electricity from renewable energy sources and the user load, and inputting the forecast data into the dispatching model for solving; performing iterative updating on the approximate value function, importing the approximate value function after the iterative updating into the dispatching model for iterative solving, and terminating an iterative process until a solving result satisfies a preset convergence condition; and using a solving result of a last iteration
