Distributed Photovoltaic–Storage Hierarchical Aggregation Method Based on Multi-Source Multi-Scale Data Fusion

Accurate model aggregation is pivotal for the efficient dispatch and control of massive distributed photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage (ES) resources. However, the lack of unified standards across equipment manufacturers results in inconsistent data formats and resolutions. Furthermore, external disturbances like noise and packet loss exacerbate the problem. The resulting data are massive, multi-source, and heterogeneous, which poses severe challenges to building effective aggregation models. To address these issues, this paper proposes a hierarchical aggregation method based on multi-source multi-scale data fusion. First, a Multi-source Multi-scale Decision Table (Ms-MsDT) model is constructed to establish a unified framework for the flexible storage and representation of heterogeneous PV-ES data. Subsequently, a two-stage fusion framework is developed, combining Information Gain (IG) for global coarse screening and Scale-based Trees (SbT) for local fine-grained selection. This approach achieves adaptive scale optimization, effectively balancing data volume reduction with high-fidelity feature preservation. Finally, a hierarchical aggregation mechanism is introduced, employing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and a weight-guided improved K-Means algorithm to perform targeted clustering tailored to the specific control requirements of different voltage levels. Validation on an IEEE-33 node system demonstrates that the proposed method significantly improves data approximation precision and clustering compactness compared to conventional approaches.
