Review on low carbon planning and operation of integrated energy systems

Abstract

Abstract The integrated energy system is an important prerequisite for the sustainable transformation to the low‐carbon power system. Therefore, this paper aims to provide readers with insights into the existing research about the planning and operation models of integrated energy systems. First, the general structure of integrated energy systems is elaborated, and the new issues faced by the low‐carbon planning and operation for the integrated energy systems are represented. Next, the technical framework and the general model are proposed. Furthermore, the typical models and solution technologies of the low‐carbon planning and operation are summarized based on specific models operating in multiple scenarios. Finally, based on the characteristics and framework of the integrated energy system, the future research direction is given, which is expected to guide the sustainable development and low‐carbon transformation of energy systems.
