Optionally, in this embodiment, the controllable loads are divided into necessary operating loads and unnecessary operating loads, so that when determining the operating time period of each operating combination according to the predicted power generation amount of each time period and the single predicted power consumption amount of each operating combination, the control center may further obtain, by the first processor, the predicted power generation amount of each time period and the single predicted power consumption amount of each controllable load, and divide all the time periods into a low-power-price time period and a high-power-price time period according to the charging time period of the power grid; determining the operation time periods of the operation combinations of the necessary operation loads in the low electricity price zone time periods according to the predicted electricity production amount of each low electricity price zone time period and the single predicted electricity consumption of the operation combinations of the necessary operation loads, wherein the absolute value of the difference between the predicted electricity production amount and the predicted electricity consumption in each low electricity price zone time period is smaller than a first difference threshold value, the first difference threshold value is used for avoiding that the predicted electricity consumption is too high or too low, and the predicted electricity consumption is calculated by the operation time period of each operation combination and the single predicted electricity consumption; when the absolute value of the difference between the predicted power generation amount and the predicted power consumption amount of the low-electricity-price section is greater than or equal to a second difference threshold, wherein the second difference threshold is used for predicting whether the predicted power generation amount corresponding to each section is consumed by the controllable load or not; and determining the operation time period of the operation combination of each necessary operation load remained in the high electricity price section according to the predicted electricity generation amount of each high electricity price section and the single predicted electricity consumption amount of the operation combination of each necessary operation load remained.

The first processor generates a scheduling proportion according to the predicted power supply curve, wherein the scheduling proportion is a schedulable proportion of the predicted power supply amount and can be 20%; the scheduling proportion is obtained according to the fluctuation condition of the predicted power supply curve, and the scheduling electric quantity of each time period is obtained through calculation according to the scheduling proportion and the predicted power supply curve; and determining the operation time period of the unnecessary operation load in each time period according to the scheduling electric quantity of each time period and the operation combination of the unnecessary operation load, wherein the unnecessary operation load is set to operate in each time period.

In the technical scheme disclosed in the embodiment, a certain proportion of unnecessary operation loads are operated in each time period, so that when the first difference is too large, the control center adjusts the power supply condition of the virtual power plant by adjusting the operation state of the unnecessary operation loads.

Optionally, in this embodiment, since the control center needs to perform operation control on the distributed power supplies and the controllable loads in the energy node, after generating the predicted power supply curve, the first processor may further obtain power supply information and a predicted power curve of each of the distributed power supplies, and then generate a distributed power supply control instruction table according to the power supply information and the predicted power curve of each of the distributed power supplies, where the control instruction table may include: device identification, operating time period, and control instructions.

The first processor acquires a control instruction set and an operation time period of each controllable load, and then generates a controllable load control instruction table according to the control instruction set and the operation time period of each controllable load, wherein the control instruction set is generated by the first processor according to operation combination of the controllable loads.

And the first processor enables the distributed power supply control instruction list and the controllable load control instruction list to form second control information according to the operation time period. The first processor can also disassemble the second control information into second control information corresponding to the energy node according to the equipment identifier, that is, the equipment identifier can be composed of an energy node identifier and an equipment unique identifier; and then, the second control information is sent to the corresponding energy node controller, so that the energy node controller can control the operation state of the distributed power supply or the controllable load corresponding to each equipment identifier in each time period according to the second control information.

In the technical scheme disclosed in this embodiment, the distributed power supply and the control instruction table of the controllable load are generated according to the predicted power supply curve, and are sorted into the second control information corresponding to the energy node and sent to the energy node, so that the effect of controlling the operation of the virtual power plant within the preset time interval is achieved.

Optionally, in this embodiment, since the control center needs to obtain the first difference when generating the first control information, the first processor may receive the second difference sent by each energy node controller when obtaining the first difference, where the second difference is a difference between an actual power supply amount and a predicted power supply amount of the energy node in the current time period where the energy node controller is located. And the first processor accumulates each received second difference value to obtain a total difference value, and the total difference value is used as a first difference value of the actual power supply amount of the virtual power plant in the current time period and the predicted power supply amount of the virtual power plant in the current time period.

Optionally, before obtaining the energy storage information of each energy storage device, the first processor may further receive the energy storage capacity and the maximum output power of each energy storage device, and then input the energy storage capacity and the maximum output power of each energy storage device into the energy storage device model, so that the energy storage device model calculates the predicted charging curve and the predicted discharging curve of each energy storage device according to the energy storage capacity and the maximum output power of each energy storage device.

The first processor obtains a predicted power supply curve stored in the first memory, obtains a predicted power supply amount of the next time period according to the predicted power supply curve, calculates the sum of the first difference and the predicted power supply amount of the next time period, and obtains the adjusted predicted power supply amount of the next time period; then judging whether the first difference value is positive or not; when the first difference is determined to be positive, generating first control information of the next time period according to the predicted charging curve and the adjusted predicted power supply amount of the next time period; and when the first difference is determined to be negative, generating first control information of the next time interval according to the predicted discharge curve and the adjusted predicted power supply amount of the next time interval.
