Coordinated Flexibility Scheduling For Urban Integrated Heat And Power Systems By Considering The Temperature Dynamics Of Heating Network

The coordinated heat-electricity dispatch of the urban integrated energy system (UIES) helps to improve the system flexibility, thereby overcoming the adverse effects caused by the random fluctuations of renewable energy (RE) and promoting the penetration of RE. Among them, the dynamic characteristics of the urban heat network (UHN) are important features that need to be considered for the operating scheduling of the UIES. This paper aims to establish a flexibility scheduling model for UIES based on the dynamic characteristics of the UHN. First, the typical structure and key equipment model of the urban integrated heat and power system (UIHPS) with the dynamic characteristics of the UHN is proposed. Then, the definition and model of the UIHPS flexibility and the assessment index of the flexibility are developed. Moreover, a flexibility scheduling model for a UIHPS that considers the dynamic characteristics of a UHN is established. Finally, the validity of the proposed model is validated by case studies, and the applicability of flexibility scheduling and the effect of heat load (HL) are analyzed.
