Description

本発明は、電源システムおよび当該電源システムにおいて用いられる電源装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a power supply system and a power supply device used in the power supply system.

従来の電源システムとして、例えば、特許文献1に記載のものが知られている。図2に示すように、特許文献1に記載の電源システム100は、太陽電池101と、第1パワーコンディショナ装置102と、蓄電池103と、第2パワーコンディショナ装置104とを備える。 As a conventional power supply system, for example, the one described in Patent Document 1 is known. As shown in FIG. 2, the power supply system 100 described in Patent Document 1 includes a solar cell 101, a first power conditioner device 102, a storage battery 103, and a second power conditioner device 104.

電源システム100では、第2パワーコンディショナ装置104の制御下で蓄電池103を充放電させることにより、太陽電池101の発電電力(第1パワーコンディショナ装置102で交流に変換された発電電力)の変動成分を吸収し、商用電力系統に送電される送電電力を平滑化している。 In the power supply system 100, by charging and discharging the storage battery 103 under the control of the second power conditioner device 104, the generated power of the solar cell 101 (the generated power converted into alternating current by the first power conditioner device 102) fluctuates. It absorbs components and smoothes the transmitted power transmitted to the commercial power system.

ところで、蓄電池103には充放電容量があり、充電または放電の一方向の動作のみを長時間継続させることはできないため、蓄電池103の充放電容量を常に監視し、例えば、充電動作を一定時間行ったら、放電動作を行う等の制御が必要になる。 By the way, since the storage battery 103 has a charge / discharge capacity and cannot be continuously charged or discharged in only one direction for a long time, the charge / discharge capacity of the storage battery 103 is constantly monitored, for example, the charging operation is performed for a certain period of time. Then, control such as performing a discharge operation is required.

この点、蓄電池103の代わりに水電解装置を用いることで、制御にかかる負荷を軽減することができる。しかしながら、水電解装置は、蓄電池103の充電動作に相当する一方向の動作しかできず、蓄電池103の放電動作に相当する動作(第2パワーコンディショナ装置104側に電力を出力する動作)はできない。このため、単に蓄電池103を水電解装置に置き換えただけでは、太陽電池101の発電電力の変動成分を安定して吸収することができず、送電電力を平滑化できないおそれがある。 In this respect, by using a water electrolyzer instead of the storage battery 103, the load on the control can be reduced. However, the water electrolyzer can only operate in one direction corresponding to the charging operation of the storage battery 103, and cannot perform the operation corresponding to the discharging operation of the storage battery 103 (the operation of outputting electric power to the second power conditioner device 104 side). .. Therefore, if the storage battery 103 is simply replaced with a water electrolyzer, the variable component of the generated power of the solar cell 101 cannot be stably absorbed, and the transmitted power may not be smoothed.

以下、添付図面を参照して、本発明に係る電源システムおよび電源装置の実施形態について説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of a power supply system and a power supply device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

図1に、本発明の一実施形態に係る電源システム1を示す。電源システム1は、発電装置2と、水電解装置3と、本発明の一実施形態に係る電源装置4とを備える。 FIG. 1 shows a power supply system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The power supply system 1 includes a power generation device 2, a water electrolysis device 3, and a power supply device 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

発電装置2は、再生可能エネルギーを利用して発電し、直流の発電電力を出力する。発電装置2は、本実施形態では、太陽電池で構成される。 The power generation device 2 uses renewable energy to generate power, and outputs DC power generation. In the present embodiment, the power generation device 2 is composed of a solar cell.

水電解装置3は、電気エネルギー(本実施形態では、電源装置4から出力される直流の水電解電力)により水を分解して水素を生成する。水電解装置3によって生成された水素は、産業プロセス、材料加工、添加剤、水素ステーション、燃料電池装置、ボイラー、パイプラインなど多様な需要用途に向けて供給される。 The water electrolyzer 3 decomposes water by electric energy (in this embodiment, DC water electrolysis power output from the power supply device 4) to generate hydrogen. The hydrogen produced by the water electrolyzer 3 is supplied for various demand applications such as industrial processes, material processing, additives, hydrogen stations, fuel cell devices, boilers, and pipelines.

電源装置4は、第1電力変換装置10と、第2電力変換装置20と、第3電力変換装置30と、これらの装置を相互に接続する直流バス40とを備える。 The power supply device 4 includes a first power conversion device 10, a second power conversion device 20, a third power conversion device 30, and a DC bus 40 that connects these devices to each other.

第1電力変換装置10は、第1DC/DC電力変換部11および第1制御部12を備え、第2電力変換装置20は、第2DC/DC電力変換部21および第2制御部22を備え、第3電力変換装置30は、DC/AC電力変換部31および第3制御部32を備える。第1制御部12、第2制御部22および第3制御部32は、相互に通信可能に構成されている。発電装置2が風力発電など交流を出力する場合、第1電力変換装置10は、AC/DC電力変換部またはAC/DC電力変換部とDC/DC電力変換部と、制御部を備えてもよい。 The first power conversion device 10 includes a first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 and a first control unit 12, and the second power conversion device 20 includes a second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 and a second control unit 22. The third power conversion device 30 includes a DC / AC power conversion unit 31 and a third control unit 32. The first control unit 12, the second control unit 22, and the third control unit 32 are configured to be able to communicate with each other. When the power generation device 2 outputs alternating current such as wind power generation, the first power conversion device 10 may include an AC / DC power conversion unit or an AC / DC power conversion unit, a DC / DC power conversion unit, and a control unit. ..

第1DC/DC電力変換部11は、入力側に発電装置2が接続され、出力側に直流バス40を介して第2DC/DC電力変換部21およびDC/AC電力変換部31が接続される。第1DC/DC電力変換部11は、第1制御部12の制御下で、入力された直流の発電電力を昇圧または降圧して直流バス40に出力する。 In the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11, the power generation device 2 is connected to the input side, and the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 and the DC / AC power conversion unit 31 are connected to the output side via the DC bus 40. Under the control of the first control unit 12, the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 boosts or lowers the input DC generated power and outputs it to the DC bus 40.

第1制御部12は、例えば、マイコンおよび/または専用のICからなり、第1DC/DC電力変換部11に入力される発電装置2の発電電力が最大になるように、第1DC/DC電力変換部11に対してMPPT制御(最大電力点追従制御)を行う。 The first control unit 12 is composed of, for example, a microcomputer and / or a dedicated IC, and the first DC / DC power conversion is performed so that the power generated by the power generation device 2 input to the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 is maximized. MPPT control (maximum power point tracking control) is performed on the unit 11.

第2DC/DC電力変換部21は、入力側に直流バス40が接続され、出力側に水電解装置3が接続される。第2DC/DC電力変換部21は、第2制御部22の制御下で、入力された直流電力を昇圧または降圧し、当該昇圧または降圧した直流電力を水電解電力として水電解装置3に出力する。 In the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21, the DC bus 40 is connected to the input side, and the water electrolyzer 3 is connected to the output side. Under the control of the second control unit 22, the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 boosts or lowers the input DC power, and outputs the boosted or lowered DC power to the water electrolyzer 3 as water electrolysis power. ..

第2制御部22は、例えば、マイコンおよび/または専用のICからなる。第2制御部22は、発電電力の変動成分に相当する直流の変動電力が第2DC/DC電力変換部21に入力されるように、水電解電力が発電電力を超えない範囲で第2DC/DC電力変換部21に入力される変動電力を制御する。 The second control unit 22 includes, for example, a microcomputer and / or a dedicated IC. The second control unit 22 has a second DC / DC within a range in which the water electrolytic power does not exceed the generated power so that the DC fluctuating power corresponding to the fluctuating component of the generated power is input to the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21. It controls the variable power input to the power conversion unit 21.

具体的には、第2制御部22は、まず発電電力の電力値を取得する。例えば、第2制御部22は、発電装置2の出力電流および出力電圧を検出する不図示の電流検出手段および電圧検出手段の検出結果に基づいて、発電電力の電力値を算出してもよいし、第1制御部12と通信を行い、第1制御部12から発電電力の電力値を取得してもよい。また、発電電力の電力値の代わりに、第1DC/DC電力変換部11で昇圧または降圧された後の発電電力の電力値を取得してもよい。 Specifically, the second control unit 22 first acquires the power value of the generated power. For example, the second control unit 22 may calculate the power value of the generated power based on the detection results of the current detecting means and the voltage detecting means (not shown) that detect the output current and the output voltage of the power generation device 2. , The power value of the generated power may be acquired from the first control unit 12 by communicating with the first control unit 12. Further, instead of the power value of the generated power, the power value of the generated power after being boosted or stepped down by the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 may be acquired.

発電電力の電力値を取得した第2制御部22は、平滑化電力(発電電力から変動電力を差し引くことで平滑化された電力)の目標値を算出する。例えば、第2制御部22は、発電電力の電力値の移動平均を算出し、上記のとおり水電解電力が発電電力を超えないように当該移動平均から所定のバイアス値を差し引くことで、平滑化電力の目標値を算出する。 The second control unit 22 that has acquired the power value of the generated power calculates the target value of the smoothed power (the power smoothed by subtracting the variable power from the generated power). For example, the second control unit 22 calculates a moving average of the power value of the generated power, and as described above, smoothes by subtracting a predetermined bias value from the moving average so that the water electrolysis power does not exceed the generated power. Calculate the target value of electric power.

第2制御部22は、上記バイアス値を水電解装置3の定格電力よりも小さい値(例えば、定格電力の1/2)に設定する。第2制御部22は、発電電力の変動が小さいときはバイアス値を設定値に維持する一方、発電電力の変動がプラス側に大きくなれば水電解装置3の定格電力を超えない範囲でバイアス値を大きくし、発電電力の変動がマイナス側に大きくなればバイアス値を小さくする。 The second control unit 22 sets the bias value to a value smaller than the rated power of the water electrolyzer 3 (for example, 1/2 of the rated power). The second control unit 22 maintains the bias value at the set value when the fluctuation of the generated power is small, while the bias value does not exceed the rated power of the water electrolyzer 3 when the fluctuation of the generated power becomes large on the positive side. If the fluctuation of the generated power becomes large on the negative side, the bias value is reduced.

平滑化電力の目標値を算出した第2制御部22は、所定の周期で平滑化電力の電力値を取得する。例えば、第2制御部22は、DC/AC電力変換部31の入力電流および入力電圧を検出する不図示の電流検出手段および電圧検出手段の検出結果に基づいて、平滑化電力の電力値を算出してもよいし、第3制御部32と通信を行い、第3制御部32から平滑化電力の電力値を取得してもよい。また、平滑化電力の電力値の代わりに、商用電力系統に送電される送電電力の電力値を取得してもよい。その場合、第2制御部22は、送電電力の目標値を算出しておくことが好ましい。 The second control unit 22 that has calculated the target value of the smoothing power acquires the power value of the smoothing power at a predetermined cycle. For example, the second control unit 22 calculates the power value of the smoothing power based on the detection results of the current detecting means and the voltage detecting means (not shown) that detect the input current and the input voltage of the DC / AC power conversion unit 31. Alternatively, the power value of the smoothing power may be obtained from the third control unit 32 by communicating with the third control unit 32. Further, instead of the power value of the smoothing power, the power value of the transmitted power transmitted to the commercial power system may be acquired. In that case, it is preferable that the second control unit 22 calculates the target value of the transmitted power.

第2制御部22は、平滑化電力(または送電電力)の電力値が目標値に近づくように、第2DC/DC電力変換部21に入力される変動電力の制御(例えば、フィードバック制御)を行う。これにより、水電解装置3は、変動電力に応じた水電解電力を吸収することができる。なお、第2制御部22は、電力変換部21の出力電力(水電解電力)を制御することで、第2DC/DC電力変換部21に入力される変動電力を間接的に制御してもよい。 The second control unit 22 controls the variable power input to the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 (for example, feedback control) so that the power value of the smoothing power (or transmitted power) approaches the target value. .. As a result, the water electrolysis device 3 can absorb the water electrolysis power corresponding to the fluctuating power. The second control unit 22 may indirectly control the variable power input to the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 by controlling the output power (water electrolysis power) of the power conversion unit 21. ..

また、第2制御部22は、上記の制御(例えば、フィードバック制御)と併せて、発電電力の増減に応じて水電解電力を増減させつつ、直流バス40の電圧を一定に保つ制御を行うことが好ましい。 In addition to the above control (for example, feedback control), the second control unit 22 controls to keep the voltage of the DC bus 40 constant while increasing or decreasing the water electrolysis power according to the increase or decrease of the generated power. Is preferable.

DC/AC電力変換部31は、入力側に直流バス40が接続され、出力側に商用電力系統が接続される。DC/AC電力変換部31は、第3制御部32の制御下で、入力された直流の平滑化電力を交流の送電電力に変換し、当該送電電力を商用電力系統に送電させる。 In the DC / AC power conversion unit 31, the DC bus 40 is connected to the input side, and the commercial power system is connected to the output side. Under the control of the third control unit 32, the DC / AC power conversion unit 31 converts the input DC smoothing power into AC power transmission power, and transmits the power transmission power to the commercial power system.

第3制御部32は、例えば、マイコンおよび/または専用のICからなり、平滑化された緩やかな変化の送電電力が商用電力系統に送電されるように、DC/AC電力変換部31のDC/AC変換動作を制御する。 The third control unit 32 is composed of, for example, a microcomputer and / or a dedicated IC, and the DC / of the DC / AC power conversion unit 31 is such that the smoothed and slowly changing transmission power is transmitted to the commercial power system. Controls AC conversion operation.

結局、本実施形態では、水電解電力が発電電力を超えないように、第2制御部22が第2DC/DC電力変換部21に入力される変動電力の制御を行うので、水電解装置3だけでも(例えば、蓄電池を並設しなくても)送電電力を平滑化することができる。 After all, in the present embodiment, since the second control unit 22 controls the variable power input to the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 so that the water electrolysis power does not exceed the generated power, only the water electrolysis device 3 is used. However, the transmitted power can be smoothed (for example, without arranging storage batteries side by side).

さらに、本実施形態では、第1DC/DC電力変換部11と第2DC/DC電力変換部21とが直流バス40で接続されている。これにより、第1DC/DC電力変換部11がMPPT動作(最大電力点追従動作)を行って直流の発電電力を出力し、当該発電電力を交流に変換することなく、第2DC/DC電力変換部21が直流の水電解電力を生成して水電解装置3に供給することができる。したがって、本実施形態に係る電源システム1および電源装置4は、変換効率に優れている。 Further, in the present embodiment, the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 and the second DC / DC power conversion unit 21 are connected by a DC bus 40. As a result, the first DC / DC power conversion unit 11 performs MPPT operation (maximum power point tracking operation) to output DC generated power, and the second DC / DC power conversion unit does not convert the generated power into AC. 21 can generate DC water electrolysis power and supply it to the water electrolysis device 3. Therefore, the power supply system 1 and the power supply device 4 according to the present embodiment are excellent in conversion efficiency.
