Under China's vigorous development of integrated energy services, the Integrated Energy Service Agency (IESA) is responsible for purchasing energy from external markets and selling energy to multi-energy users (MEUs). Currently, an increase in the various forms of energy in industrial parks has caused great uncertainty for MEUs participating in an integrated demand response (IDR) but has also provided an opportunity for industrial parks to optimize energy conservation. Therefore, determining how to build an elastic energy cloud model with IDR uncertainty and add the uncertainty and randomness of the cloud model to the optimal scheduling of an industrial park integrated energy system is a key problem. In this paper, an optimal economic dispatch model of an industrial park is proposed and considers the uncertain elastic energy of IDR. In this model, the IESA is responsible for the reasonable scheduling of equipment for optimal operation, the establishment of integrated energy retail prices for MEUs, and the goal of maximizing the net income of the IESA. First, the functional relationship among the self-elastic coefficient, retail energy prices, and IDR variation is considered. A cloud model of the self-elastic coefficient is constructed to indirectly represent the multiple uncertainties of the elastic energy in the industrial park. Second, this paper compares and analyzes the economic benefits and IDR potential of the industrial park by considering only single power users in different intervals and the selection of cloud drop elements of MEUs in all intervals. Finally, a new scene random sampling method based on interval contributions (SRS-IC) is employed to solve the optimization model, and a typical example is used to demonstrate that the model and method can guarantee the overall economy of the industrial park, improve the computational efficiency, and explore the IDR potential of MEUs.
Based on the real-time environmental constraints in urban regional construction, this paper constructed a bi-level decentralized low-carbon optimal dispatching model of the urban regional integrated energy system (RIES), including the park integrated energy systems (IESs). In this model, a bi-level optimal allocation model of carbon emission constraints between the urban and the park is proposed for the first time. The upper urban will formulate the real-time carbon emission constraints based on real-time environmental monitoring, decomposing the historical carbon emissions to the lower park IESs; the lower park will meet the real-time carbon emission constraints during optimization. We through the upper urban with the lower park between the bi-level decentralized optimization to ensure that the objective function's upper urban power, natural gas, and heat distribution network system is minimum total network loss. In addition, it is necessary to ensure the minimum operating cost of each park IESs and focus on how to meet the requirements of the overall environment of urban RIES. Furthermore, we study the influence of optimal allocation strategy of carbon emission constraints on network loss, and operating cost of urban RIES under different scenarios. Then, an improved analytical target cascading (ATC) method is applied to solve the bilevel decentralized optimal dispatching model of urban RIES. Finally, an example under three different scenarios is given to verify the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed model and the improved method.
