Abstract

The energy system carbon reduction is an inevitable trend to deal with the global warming problem. The power industry, being a vital part of energy system, faces severe challenges. To decarbonize the power sectors, the implementation of low-carbon technologies and integration of high penetrated renewable power generation would be an effective solution. Therefore, given the existence of multi-type low-carbon technologies including the flexibility reformation of coal-fired units, construction of gas-fired units and installation of energy storage systems, a low-carbon economic planning model of integrated electricity-gas systems with high penetration of wind generation is proposed. The carbon tax and carbon capture technology are integrated to accelerate carbon reductions. In particular, the strategic planning cases contributed by different scenarios are formulated. The simulation results on an electricity-gas test system demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed model in carbon reduction as well as wind curtailment decrease. Compared with the initial state, the implementations of the proposed three planning strategies can reduce carbon emissions by 9.8%, 32.5% and 9.3%, respectively. Meanwhile, the wind power curtailment ratio is decreased by 63.2%, 38.9%, and 63.7%, respectively. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis of carbon tax price and wind power penetration level are performed to investigate the low-carbon transition of the integrated electricity-gas systems.
