Robust Optimal Framework of Carbon Capture, Storage and Utilization in a Microgrid with Power to Gas Facilities

This paper provides a scheduling strategy that is designed to ensure the robustness of a multi-energy microgrid that has power to gas facilities. The microgrid is composed of hydrogen, electricity, and gas as energy carriers, and demands are met by means of electrolysis as the central point. In order to mitigate CO

emissions from gas-fired units and promote the methanation process, carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) is employed. The employed energy transformations comprise P2H (power to hydrogen), H2P (hydrogen to power), and H2G (hydrogen to gas). To enhance the energy system, a hydrogen storage system (HSS) is implemented and hydrogen vehicles (HV) are also considered as a demand. Information gap decision theory (IGDT) is used to create a solid plan of action to deal with the risks associated with renewable energy sources. The effectiveness of the suggested approach is assessed by a series of studies that are examined on a test system.
