Period Cycle Optimization of Integrated Energy Systems with Long-Term Scheduling Consideration
The economy and energy saving effects of integrated energy system dispatch plans are influenced by the coupling of different energy devices. In order to consider the impact of changes in equipment load rates on the optimization and scheduling of the system under long-term operation, a method for energy and component cycle optimization considering energy device capacity and load has been proposed. By improving the initial parameters of the components, energy economic parameters, and operational optimization parameters, the system is subjected to long-term scheduling and multi-cycle operational optimization analysis to evaluate the energy saving and emission reduction potential as well as the economic feasibility of the system. Finally, through numerical analysis, the effectiveness of this optimization approach in achieving energy savings, emission reductions, and cost benefits for the system is validated. Furthermore, compared to existing optimization methods, this approach also assesses the economic feasibility of the system. The case study resulted in a pre-tax IRR of 23.14% and a pre-tax NPV of 66.38 million. It is inferred that the system could generate profits over a 10-year operation period, thereby offering a more rational and cost-effective scheduling scheme for the integrated energy system
