Generalized Modeling of Self-scheduling Demand Resource in Multi-Energy System

摘要

Demand response (DR) is a framework that allows flexible load (FL) to self-schedule, including being curtailed or shifted to maintain system balance between energy supply and demand. With the integration of multi-energy system (MES) and development of information and communication technologies (ICTs), multi-energy infrastructures have expanded the ways FL participates in DR program. FL can shift to another energy carrier without noticeable delay. However, the chronological behavior and economic assessment for such DR methods have not been comprehensively discussed yet. This paper proposed a generalized self-scheduling model for demand side in MES. Firstly, the chronological response potentials for multi-energy FLs are explored. Moreover, the appliance-level economic loss of both load curtailment and shifting are calculated based on customer damage function. The optimization of self-scheduling is formulated as a mixed integer programing problem and solved by genetic algorithm. A test case based on energy hub is formed to illustrate the proposed modeling technique.
