Bi-Layer Planning of Integrated Energy System by Incorporating Power-to-Gas and Ground Source Heat Pump for Curtailed Wind Power and Economic Cost Reduction

Abstract

The popularization of renewable energy is limited by wasteful problems such as curtailed wind power and high economic costs. To tackle these problems, we propose a bi-layer optimal planning model with the integration of power to gas and a ground source heat pump for the existing integrated energy system. Firstly, the inner layer optimizes the daily dispatch of the system, with the minimum daily operation cost including the penalty cost of curtailed wind power. Then, the enumeration method of outer-layer optimization determines the device capacity of various schemes. After that, optimal planning can be achieved with the minimum daily comprehensive cost. The result of this example shows that the improved system can reduce curtailed wind power and system costs, thus improving the overall economy. Finally, the influences of algorithms and gas prices on planning optimization are studied.
