Abstract: Solar photovoltaic thermal system (SPTS) can fully tap solar energy resources to realize thermal and electric supply for users simultaneously, but the volatility and uncertainty of renewable energy and load cause the imbalance of energy supply. This paper proposes a multi-time scale optimal scheduling method for SPTS based on event-triggered model predictive control (ET-MPC) considering battery performance deterioration. Firstly, SPTS is divided into day-ahead and day-in optimization layers from different time scales. Day-ahead scheduling takes the minimization economic cost as the optimization function to obtain pre-scheduling plan, and day-in scheduling adapts rolling optimization scheme based on model predictive control (MPC) to reduce power fluctuations and achieve optimal scheduling adjustment. Moreover, the battery performance decay parameter is introduced into the MPC model and embedded into the optimization problem to prolong the cyclic life deterioration, and an event-triggered mechanism is introduced into MPC to improve the computational efficiency and reduce the communication frequency. Finally, the results show that the proposed double-layer scheduling method improves 4.15 %, 66 % and 13.39 % respectively regarding cost, power fluctuation and battery maintenance, and improve the calculation efficiency of 48.89 % compared with standard MPC method, which indicates that the proposed method has good economy, stability and execution efficiency.
