A demand-side integrated flexible load regulation optimization strategy for clean energy consumption

Abstract

In order to absorb large-scale clean energy for power grid, the use of energy storage technology is paid more and more attention. However, most of the current researches are focused on a single kind of energy storage forms, and few are involved in the joint use of multiple energy storage devices. This paper aims at the insufficient application of a single energy storage device and the conflict between multiple energy storage technologies. A demand-side integrated flexible load regulation optimization method is proposed. For the heat storage electric boiler system and the ice storage air conditioning system, the combined algorithm is used to optimize their operation. It is clear that the combined algorithm based on genetic algorithm combined with cold, hot and electrical system has a more significant effect of absorbing clean energy than the single energy storage system. And, the example result proves the correctness and feasibility of the proposed comprehensive demand side response strategy.
