Distributed Energy Management Strategy for Integrated Energy System Towards Lower Carbon Emission

To decrease the degree of dependence on fuel-based resources, it is necessary to reform the energy system. Integrated energy system (IES) combined heating and power networks, realizes the cooperation of heterogeneous energies. To improve the efficiency of energy utilization, an energy management problem is investigated in this paper. Firstly, an energy management model of IES is constructed with the considerations of economy benefits and carbon emissions. Moreover, the carbon capture device and carbon storage device are installed in IES as well, which introduces a tax trading mechanism. Then, based on the method of alternating multipliers, a fully distributed energy management algorithm is designed to acquire the optimal solutions. Finally, simulation results prove the effectiveness of the constructed model and the distributed algorithm,

I. Introduction

With the gradual depletion of fossil energy resources, and the gradual increase in environmental awareness, the conventional energy supply-demand structure only depended on fuel-based resources needs to be changed [1], [2]. The integrated energy system (IES) combined heating and power networks is regarded as a potential manner to increase the efficiency of energy utilization. Therefore, it can raise the economic economy and decrease the carbon emission, simultaneously. Because of the great performances, IES has received wide attention in recent years.
