A comprehensive energy system optimization method considering variable operating condition characteristics of equipment

Abstract

The economy of the Regional Integrated Energy System (RIES) scheduling scheme is affected by the parameter accuracy of different energy conversion equipment models. The traditional static energy hub (EH) model regards the equipment efficiency as a constant and ignores the variable condition characteristics of the equipment efficiency changing with the load rate. This paper presents an optimal scheduling method of RIES considering the characteristics of equipment under variable operating conditions. Firstly, the architecture of the integrated energy system is analyzed. Secondly, based on the DEH model, an optimal scheduling method of RIES was proposed considering the characteristics of equipment under variable operating conditions. Finally, an optimal scheduling analysis is performed for a typical RIs. The results show that the proposed method can improve the accuracy of the equipment model and reduce the cost prediction error by considering the variable operating conditions of the equipment, thus providing a more economical scheduling scheme for Ries.
