Optimal Planning of Multi-Energy System Considering Thermal Storage Capacity of Heating Network and Heat Load

The multi-energy system (MES) is believed to have bright prospects in the future for its advantages of high energy efficiency, flexible operation condition, and environmentally friendly. The heating network and the heat load play an important role in the MES and have great potentials in improving the system performance. In this paper, an optimal planning method is proposed for the MES that considers the thermal storage capacity of the heating network and the heat load. The objective includes the investment cost, the fuel cost, the grid cost, the maintenance cost, and the environmental cost. The constraints of the cogeneration, the heating network, and the heat load are all taken into consideration. The simulation based on the typical working conditions in annual operation is performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed planning method. Four cases are set in order to comprehensively investigate the effect of the thermal storage capacity of the heating network and the heat load on the MES planning. The results indicate that the proposed method can decrease the capacity of the devices and reduce the fuel cost.
