Abstract

The coordination of pumped storage and renewable energy is regarded as a promising avenue for renewable energy accommodation. Considering wind power output uncertainties, a collaborative capacity optimization method for wind–pumped hydro storage hybrid systems is proposed in this work. Firstly, considering the fluctuation of wind power generation caused by the natural seasonal weather and inherent uncertainties of wind power outputs, a combined method based on the generative adversarial network and K-means clustering algorithm is presented to construct wind power output scenarios. Then, a multi-objective wind–pumped storage system capacity optimization model is established with three objectives consisting of minimizing the levelized cost of energy, minimizing the net load peak–valley difference of regional power grids, and minimizing the power output deviation of hybrid systems. An inner and outer nested algorithm is proposed to obtain the Pareto frontiers based on the strength of the Pareto evolutionary algorithm II. Finally, the complementarity of wind power and pumped storage is illustrated through an analysis of numerical examples, and the advantages of variable-speed pumped storage in complementary operation with wind power over fixed-speed units are verified.
