Abstract:

To promote low-carbon and cost-effective operations of regional integrated energy systems(RIES), a low-carbon economic dispatch model under green certificate and carbon trading mechanisms was proposed considering tiered demand response. Carbon capture and power-to-gas technologies were introduced into combined heat and power(CHP) units to establish an integrated operation model for CHP units, carbon capture systems, and power-to-gas equipment. The carbon and green certificate trading mechanisms and their interactive models were analyzed. Additionally, tiered demand response was employed on the user load side to achieve peak load shaving for electricity, heat, and gas loads. The system's total operating cost over a single day was set as the objective function, and various case scenarios were analyzed using the Gurobi solver. The results demonstrate that the proposed model effectively enhances the system's low-carbon performance and economic efficiency, facilitates the output and consumption of renewable energy units, and provides superior peak-shaving effects.
