Abstract
In order to solve the problem that allocating the whole virtual power station is not centralized and promoting the free access of power distribution, a research on distributed scheduling of urban power network based on blockchain technology is proposed. and a scheme is proposed. Based on the consistency of decentralized virtual power plant and blockchain in decentralized point-to-point interaction and decentralized cooperation, this paper proposes to use blockchain consensus mechanism to realize distributed scheduling of virtual power plant. According to the principle of continuous micro- increment cost, the optimal economic dispatch of virtual power system is realized by taking the micro- increment characteristic as the variable. and the optimal economic dispatch strategy is realized. As a node of the blockchain, each distributed energy in the virtual power plant has a complete backup of the key data of the whole network. When the load changes, each node uses the PBFT consensus algorithm to independently calculate the new power of each unit. The new power data is stored on the chain, and the global consistency of micro incremental features is maintained to realize the reasonable load distribution among units. The experimental results show that, when the initial t = 1, the λ the values of each unit are different. The system does not meet the principle of constant consumption micro-increase rate, and the system does not operate in the optimal state. After a PBFT consensus, λ variable reaches the same value at t=8, and the system reaches the optimal operating state. Conclusion: The simulation experiment verifies the effectiveness of the algorithm, realizes distributed scheduling by using blockchain, and provides a feasible reference scheme for the operation mode of decentralized virtual power plant.
