Optimal Capacity Allocation of Integrated Agricultural Energy Network with Enhanced Geothermal System Considering Seasonal Differences

As an essential direction of agricultural development in the future, the energy demand for facility agriculture varies significantly in different seasons. In this paper, an integrated energy network structure for independent facility agriculture with combined heat and power enhanced geothermal system (CHP-EGS) is proposed. Based on the CHPEGS cogeneration model and stochastic optimization method, the optimal analysis model for capacity allocation of independent facility agricultural integrated energy network is established. Taking the energy supply of facility agriculture in the hot dry rock resource-rich area of the Gonghe basin in China as an example, the optimal allocation scheme and operation characteristics of integrated energy networks for facility agriculture are analyzed considering the difference of seasonal energy consumption. The results show that, under the same capacity configuration, facility agriculture has sufficient energy support in summer, and its income can be increased by expanding the area of greenhouse or developing product processing. In winter, if the basic energy supply-demand of facility agriculture is to be ensured, the emergency heating system should be configured according to about 30% of the maximum heating demand. The optimization model and case analysis can provide meaningful guidance for seasonal energy sources planning of facility agriculture.
