Abstract

[Objective] To address the negative impacts of renewable energy and load uncertainty on the economic performance and low-carbon optimization operation of multi-energy microgrids,this paper explores the potential of comprehensive demand response and proposes a low-conservatism robust solution method for the electric-thermal microgrid. [Methods] Firstly,a low-carbon scheduling model for multi-energy microgrids is constructed based on the constraints of the power grid and thermal network,as well as the characteristics of the combined electric-thermal demand response and the electric-thermal conversion process. To enhance the robustness and disturbance resistance of the operation mode in complex uncertainty environments,a theory of constructing uncertain sets based on high-dimensional linear polyhedra is proposed,which transforms the proposed model into a low-conservatism robust optimization model for solution; further,using the strong duality theory,the proposed robust model is transformed into a mixed integer optimization model for solution. This paper uses the IEEE 33-node multi-energy microgrid test system for calculation. [Results] The calculation results show that,compared with the traditional optimization scheduling strategy,the proposed scheduling method reduces the operation cost and carbon emission by 5.30% and 6.46%; considering the comprehensive demand response,the proposed model reduces the operation cost by 4.11%. [Conclusions] The calculation results verify the economic and low-carbon performarce of the proposed method.

Abstract
随着“双碳”目标的不断推进,为改善电-热园区综合能源系统(IES)供需矛盾,平抑负荷波动及降低碳排放量,提出了计及电热负荷特性的IES低碳经济调度策略。采用能源集线器模型对园区IES进行建模,体现用户侧电热柔性负荷的特性。目标函数为碳交易成本及IES运行成本之和最小,采用Cplex求解器进行求解,得到2种场景下的IES日前运行成本及碳交易成本,通过对仿真结果对比分析电热柔性负荷在碳交易机制下降低IES日前运行成本及碳交易成本的作用。电热柔性负荷参与调度的结果,柔性负荷特性能够减少IES日前运行成本,起到平滑负荷曲线、减小负荷峰谷差的作用,还能够改善源荷矛盾,减少碳排放。

With the continuous advancement of "double carbon" target,to alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand of a power-thermal integrated energy system(IES),and stabilize load fluctuations and reduce carbon emissions,a low-carbon economy dispatch strategy for the IES taking the characteristics of power and heat loads into account is proposed. An energy hub model of the IES can reflect the characteristics of flexible power and heat loads on user side. The objective function aims at minimizing the sum of carbon trading cost and operation cost of the IES. Solved by Cplex solver,the day-ahead operation cost and carbon trading cost of the IES under two scenarios are obtained. According to the simulation results,the reduction of the IES day-ahead operation cost and carbon trading cost made by flexible power and heat loads under carbon trading mechanism is expounded. Flexible loads can lower the IES day-ahead operation cost by smoothing the load curve and diminishing peak-valley difference, so as to alleviate the source-load contradiction and carbon emissions.

Abstract
针对风光出力的不确定性容易对虚拟电厂调度产生影响的问题,提出了基于信息间隙决策理论(information gap decision theory,IGDT)的新型虚拟电厂优化调度模型。为了降低系统的碳排放,对热电联产机组加装碳捕集(carbon capture and storage,CCS)系统;为了提高可再生能源的利用率,在系统中引入电转气(power to gas,P2G)装置,提出CCS-P2G耦合的运行模式;在CCS-P2G耦合运行的基础上基于信息间隙决策理论考虑了风光出力的不确定性。通过CPLEX求解器对所建模型进行求解,结果表明,在CCS-P2G耦合运行下,风光出力的利用率达到100%,系统的运行成本降低了12.3%,有效提升了系统的经济性和低碳性;在IGDT策略下通过成本预留,在风光出力的不确定度不超过上限时,能实现调度周期内对虚拟电厂运行的有效管控。

In order to solve the problem that the uncertainty of wind power and photovoltaic power generation output easily affects the scheduling of virtual power plant, a new optimal scheduling model of virtual power plant is proposed based on information gap decision theory (IGDT). In order to reduce the carbon emission of the system, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is installed on the combined heat and power units; in order to improve the utilization rate of renewable energy, the power to gas (P2G) device is introduced into the system, and the operation mode of CCS-P2G coupling is proposed; based on the operation of CCS-P2G coupling, the uncertainty of wind power and photovoltaic power generation output is considered based on the information gap decision theory. The model is solved by CPLEX solver, and the results show that under the coupled operation of CCS-P2G, the utilization rate of solar and wind power reaches 100%, the operating cost of the system is reduced by 12.3%, and the economy and low carbon of the system are effectively improved; under the IGDT strategy, when the uncertainty of wind power and photovoltaic power generation output does not exceed the upper limit through cost reservation, the virtual power plant operation can be effectively controlled within the scheduling cycle.
