The Computing and Information System for Study of Scenarios for Interstate Power Grids Expansion

Energy Systems Research

2021

he paper addresses the visualization and systematization of cartographic material for analyzing energy infrastructure in various world regions. It discusses the technology (architecture) for building maps based on the concept of atlas mapping. An interface was developed for the construction of interactive maps and navigation in any section of the world atlas - from the level of world continents to a detailed map of any region within the country. We have constructed and stored contour maps of all countries of the world in the database of the computing geo-information system (СGIS). CGIS allows constructing hybrid maps, which contain vector and raster map layers with the energy infrastructure overlaid on them in the selected territory. An algorithm was constructed to search for energy objects and administrative entities in any country or region of the world. The atlases built by CGIS are used at Melentiev Energy Systems Institute (MESI) of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences to plot the solutions obtained with the optimization model ORIRES (which reflects the optimal operation of the interconnected power systems in different scenarios) on a map of a selected area or region.

“…A number of computational experiments were carried out on the ORIRES model by using the Geo-information computing system [1][2][3][4][5][6]. In this model the optimization of generation capacities expansion and it operating modes are determined by the minimum cost of their construction, operation and fuel consumption, if all technical constrains are satisfied.…”

Optimization of Capacities of Wind and Solar Power Plants in the Interstate Power Grid in North-East Asia Taking Into Account the Intermittence of Their Power Output

2020

E3S Web Conf.

The paper considers the problems of optimization of wind and solar power plants (WPP and SPP) expansion and it operating modes in the prospective interstate power grid (ISPG) in Northeast Asia, taking into account the intermittence of their power output. A series of experiments with variations in the profiles of WPP and SPP in the model nodes were carried out. Also authors carried out some additional experiments with the increase in fuel costs for fossil fuel power plants due to environmental restrictions. As a result, an assessment of the character of the changes in the solution of the model for new installed capacities and their costs, depending on the variations for the profiles of the contributions generation of WPP and SPP to cover daily electrical load graphs, is obtained.

“…An object database has been developed, which contains contour maps of all world countries with their administrative divisions [1][2][3]. The database contains information about all major power plants in the world, their geographic coordinates, technical and economic parameters, and more.…”

Improvement of the Computing and Geoinformation System in terms of creating maps with detailed settlements

2021

E3S Web Conf.

The article is devoted to refinement (improvement) of the Computing and geoinformation System to create maps with detailed settlements in different regions for visual analyzing their energy infrastructure. The problem of visualization and systematization of cartographic data is being solved. An interface has been developed for constructing interactive maps and navigation in any section of the world atlas. The technology of graphical and cartographic data visualization using the concept of atlas cartography is developed. This concept implies the display of an interactive geographic map of any region of the world at any scale, created in the unified structure and coordinate system, with the layers of raster and vector data and the energy infrastructure applied on it. The data overlaid on the map can be energy facilities (power plants), electric power systems, and data obtained as the results of calculations on the optimization model (not described in this paper).
