Optimization of regional distributed energy system under discrete demand distribution

Abstract

This study break through the idealized demand-side distribution and build an optimization model of regional distributed energy systems under discrete conditions. Aiming at minimizing the system comprehensive cost, which includes the annual conversion cost of the initial investment and the annual operation and maintenance cost, the optimization model can determine the number, site, capacity of the energy station and the optimal pipe network layout path from the energy station to the load center, and make a comparative analysis of the annual costs in different situations. The main impact of the energy station site is the cost difference caused by the pipe network layout.
