“…The combined heat and power (CHP) unit is the key to linking multi-energy coupling synergy and increasing energy efficiency in HRIES [9]. However, its inherent heat-electricity coupling feature limits the flexible regulation ability of HRIES, which makes it difficult to handle uncertain fluctuations in renewable energy and loads.…”

The insufficient flexibility of the hybrid renewable integrated energy system (HRIES) causes renewable power curtailment and weak operational performance. The regulation potential of flexible buildings is an effective method for handling this problem. This paper builds a regulation model of flexible heat load according to the dynamic heat characteristics and heat comfort elastic interval of the buildings, as well as a regulation model of the flexible electrical load based on its transferability, resectability, and rigidity. An operation optimization model, which incorporates flexible regulation of multiple loads and a variable load of devices, is then developed. A case study is presented to analyze the regulation and synergy mechanisms of different types of loads. Its results show a saturation effect between heat and electrical loads in increasing renewable energy consumption and a synergistic effect in decreasing the operating cost. This synergy can reduce the operating cost by 0.73%. Furthermore, the operating cost can be reduced by 15.13% and the curtailment rate of renewable energy can be decreased by 12.08% when the flexible electrical and heat loads are integrated into the operation optimization of HRIES.

“…Energy is a critical foundation for social development. As global fossil fuel supplies dwindle and environmental protection pressures increase, comprehensive energy systems characterized by multi-energy flow coupling, multi-system integration, and multi-regional coordination are anticipated to mitigate the current pattern of extensive energy utilization and the conflicts between environmental protection and economic development [1]. In the resource-rich Yangtze River Basin, WSHP energy stations represent an innovative technological approach to the creation of a comprehensive urban energy supply.…”

To address the challenges posed by global climate change, developing green energy systems characterized by informatization, digitalization, and intelligence is crucial for achieving carbon neutrality. This article is a research report type paper on water source heat pump (WSHP) energy stations, aiming to use digital twin technology and other information technologies to resolve conflicts between clean energy development and efficient energy utilization. The primary objective of this study is to identify and analyze issues in traditional energy station operations and management systems. Based on this analysis, specific technical solutions are proposed, including pathways for technological research, methodologies, and content. The results provide a comprehensive theoretical framework for the intelligent transformation of energy station systems and essential technical support for the WSHP energy station project in the Hankou Binjiang International Business District. The findings have significant implications for the widespread adoption of WSHP energy stations and the achievement of national carbon neutrality goals.
