Abstract

To better reduce the carbon emissions of a park-integrated energy system (PIES), optimize the comprehensive operating cost, and smooth the load curve, a source-load flexible response model based on the comprehensive evaluation index is proposed. Firstly, a source-load flexible response model is proposed under the stepped carbon trading mechanism; the organic Rankine cycle is introduced into the source-side to construct a flexible response model with traditional combined heat and power (CHP) unit and electric boiler to realize the flexible response of CHP to load; and the load-side categorizes loads into transferable, interruptible, and substitutable loads according to the load characteristics and establishes a comprehensive demand response model. Secondly, the analytic network process (ANP) considers the linkages between indicators and allows decision-makers to consider the interactions of elements in a complex dynamic system, resulting in more realistic indicator assignment values. Considering the economy, energy efficiency, and environment, the PIES optimization operation model based on the ANP comprehensive evaluation index is constructed to optimize the system operation comprehensively. Finally, the CPLEX solver in MATLAB was employed to solve the problem. The results of the example show that the source-load flexible response model proposed in this paper reduces the operating cost of the system by 29.90%, improves the comprehensive utilization rate by 15.00%, and reduces the carbon emission by 26.98%, which effectively enhances the system’s economy and low carbon, and the comprehensive evaluation index based on the ANP reaches 0.95, which takes into account the economy, energy efficiency, and the environment, and is more superior than the single evaluation index.
