Optimal Operation of Integrated Multi-Energy Systems Under Uncertainty discusses core concepts, advanced modeling and key operation strategies for integrated multi-energy systems geared for use in optimal operation. The book particularly focuses on reviewing novel operating strategies supported by relevant code in MATLAB and GAMS. It covers foundational concepts, key challenges and opportunities in operational implementation, followed by discussions of conventional approaches to modeling electricity, heat and gas networks. This modeling is the base for more detailed operation strategies for optimal operation of integrated multi-energy systems under uncertainty covered in the latter part of the work. Reviews advanced modeling approaches relevant to the integration of electricity, heat and gas systems in operation studies Covers stochastic and robust optimal operation of integrated multi-energy systems Evaluates MPC based, real-time dispatch of integrated multi-energy systems Considers uncertainty modeling for stochastic and robust optimization Assesses optimal operation and real-time dispatch for multi-energy building complexes

With the combined impact of concerns about energy usage and environmental deterioration, integrated energy systems (IESs) are acknowledged to be a promising approach to increasing the efficiency of energy utilization by exploiting complementary (alternative) energy sources and storages. IESs show favorable performance for improving the penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) and accelerating the low-carbon transition. However, as more renewables penetrate the energy system, their highly uncertain characteristics challenge the system scheduling and operation with significant impacts on safety and economic issues. To this end, this book will provide systematic method to address the aggravating uncertainties in IESs from two aspects: distributionally robust optimization and online operation.

This book discusses the optimal design and operation of multi-carrier energy systems, providing a comprehensive review of existing systems as well as proposing new models. Chapters cover the theoretical background and application examples of interconnecting energy technologies such as combined heat and power plants, natural gas-fired power plants, power to gas technology, hydropower plants, and water desalination systems, taking into account the operational and technical constraints of each interconnecting element and the network constraint of each energy system. This book will be a valuable reference for power network and mechanical system professionals and engineers, electrical power engineering researchers and developers, and professionals from affiliated power system planning communities. Provides insight on the design and operation of multi-carrier energy systems; Covers both theoretical aspects and technical applications; Includes case studies to help apply concepts to real engineering situations.

This book discusses key issues in the planning and operation of large-scale integrated energy systems (LSIES). It establishes individual-based models for LSIES and develops multi-objective optimization algorithms and multi-attribute decision making support systems, which are applied to the planning and optimal operation of LSIES. It is a valuable reference work for researchers, students and engineers who are interested in energy systems, operation research and decision theory.

This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Advances in Integrated Energy Systems Design, Control and Optimization" that was published in Applied Sciences

This book offers a comprehensive approach to energy systems integration (ESI) that optimizes the design and operation of energy systems, maximizing the benefits of all components while minimizing potential negative impacts. By coordinating the production, distribution, and utilization of energy from diverse sources, ESI ensures the most efficient and cost-effective fulfillment of end-users' needs. The true value of ESI lies in its ability to harmonize interconnected systems, enabling the production and supply of energy in its various forms to achieve reliability, environmental sustainability, and economic viability at appropriate scales. Through the analysis and design of integrated energy systems, often referred to as multi-energy systems (MES), decision-makers and industry professionals gain valuable insights into the optimal strategies required to fulfill these objectives while considering contextual conditions and operational constraints. The book explores the design, modeling, supervising, and controlling of energy systems but also examines how these approaches can be seamlessly integrated into future MES through innovative and ESI processes. Through its comprehensive analysis and forward-thinking approach, this book serves as a vital resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to navigate the complexities of energy systems integration and leverage the potential of renewable energy for a sustainable future.
