Abstract

A distributed energy system integrated with solar and natural gas can achieve cascade energy utilization, high efficiency and energy-saving, and significantly reduce carbon emissions, which is receiving increasing attention. Therefore, this paper establishes an optimization model for primary energy consumption saving rate (PECSR), annual total cost saving rate (ATCSR), carbon dioxide emission reduction rate (CDERR) and exergy efficiency of micro-gas turbine coupled with low-concentrating photovoltaic/thermal (LCPV/T) CCHP system, and analyzes the influence of the parameters, such as solar irradiation, LCPV/T inlet temperature, LCPV/T inlet flow, LCPV/T area, low-temperature water source heat pump capacity, high-temperature water source heat pump capacity, the heat transfer efficiency of waste heat recovery boiler (WHRB) and gas boiler capacity, on the objective functions. The analysis results indicate that when the heat exchange efficiency of WHRB reaches 0.71, the CCHP system is most economical. Based on this, the Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm-II (SPEA-II) optimization algorithm and decision-making method combining Technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) and weight entropy method are employed to solve the model comprehensively, and acquire the optimum solution. After multi-objective optimization and selection, the system exergy efficiency remains around 25 %. Compared with the separation production system, the PECSR and CDERR of the CCHP system are improved by more than 24 % and 41 %, respectively.
