Abstract

Energy hubs (EHs) have substantially paved the way for the coordinated operation of various energy carriers, converters, and storage. However, the establishment of optimal planning and operation of the EH include several challenges, e.g., the stochastic nature of non-dispatchable generation assets, obtaining a satisfactory performance from the storage assets with reasonable energy and power density costs, and long-term load growth. Accordingly, this paper proposes a two-stage stochastic optimal resource allocation and operation approach for multiple smart energy hubs-based microgrids. The first stage optimizes the location of each EH and different assets' capacities. On the other hand, the second stage optimizes the charging/discharging rates of each asset and parking lot power. These microgrids combine renewable energy sources. Moreover, for research gap and unlike existing research, the cooperative operation of hybrid storage systems (i.e., solar-powered compressed air energy storage, hydrogen storage systems, battery energy storage systems, thermal energy storage systems) along with plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) has been investigated. Furthermore, annual load growth and price-based demand response (PBDR) are employed in this study. The simulation results demonstrate that the controlled charging/discharging of the PEVs reduces the total annualized cost by 5.49%, while the operation and emission costs are reduced by 21.3% and 19.86%, respectively. Furthermore, employing PBDR has led to a reduction of 10.1% in capital and operational costs.
