Abstract
The widespread use of fossil fuels has substantially contributed to global climate change. One of the most crucial ways to address climate change is to minimize carbon emissions in the energy sector. Power-to-Gas (P2G) technology provides a potential solution. In this context, this paper introduces a novel two-stage P2G planning method for the electric-gas coupling system, using carbon emission flow technology. The carbon emission flow model employed facilitates the distribution of carbon emissions across the entire energy network. Central to our planning strategy is the identification of nodes with reduced carbon emissions for the siting of P2G facilities, predicated on the premise that such nodes are indicative of significant renewable energy utilization. Constructing P2G systems at these particular nodes is strategically advantageous for augmenting renewable energy consumption. In the initial phase, a P2G siting planning methodology predicated on a low-carbon criterion is advanced, resulting in a definitive siting scheme. Subsequently, the second phase involves establishing a P2G capacity optimization model that seeks to strike an economic equilibrium between the utilization of surplus wind power and P2G operational investment. An enhanced pigeon optimization algorithm is employed to resolve the proposed model. Our method is verified by simulation. Compared with other conventional models, the accommodation capacity of renewable energy with the proposed method is enhanced, and the carbon emissions and operating costs of IES are also reduced.
