2、y.However the large-scale adoption of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic and wind power,which are naturally intermittent and stochastic,can pose technical challenges for ensuring a secure and unbroken energy supply.Such challenges can potentially be mitigated by the adoption of multi-ener

42、 enshrined in the Paris Agreement of 2015,which sets a limit of 1,5 C in global temperature rise.According to the United Nations(UN)2030 Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs)scheme,reduction in carbon emissions is a critical task requiring announcements of timetables regarding emission peaks and carbo
43、n neutralization by numerous countries.The resulting energy transition is proceeding rapidly along megatrends of decarbonization and electrification,involving an increasing proportion of non-fossil and renewable energies.This inevitably involves the development and application of the multi-energy co
44、upling technique.Technical challenges have emerged in the power system due to the high proportion of renewable energies involved,which are naturally characterized by intermittency and randomness.Thus,the multi-energy coupling technique is generally applied in stabilizing energy supply and maintainin
45、g energy efficiency.1.2 ScopeThis technology and market outlook paper introduces the multi-energy coupling technique in terms of its development history and potential challenges against the background of carbon neutralization.Key technologies are summarized in detail,including energy conversion,ener
46、gy storage,market development trends,demand management and intelligent control.In addition,the paper includes an analysis of the standardization activities surrounding multi-energy coupling.142.1 What is the multi-energy coupling system?The multi-energy coupling system was originally proposed as an
47、integrated energy system almost a century ago.The German Rheinland Group was engaged in the integrated supply of electricity and natural gas already in 1909,which is considered to mark the beginning of integrated energy services.Graphically illustrated in Figure 2-1,the multi-energy coupling system
48、integrates various energy forms including electricity,natural gas,heating/cooling and hydrogen energy in a given area.It realizes coordinated planning,optimal operation,synergistic management and complementation between different energy sources by optimizing and coordinating the various stages of th
49、e process,including the production,transmission and distribution,storage,conversion and consumption of energy.Figure 2-1|Schematic diagram of the multi-energy coupling systemSection 2 Multi-energy coupling system and service:opportunities and challenges15Multi-energy coupling system and service:oppo
50、rtunities and challenges2.2 Driving factorsDevelopment of the multi-energy coupling system is fundamentally driven by anticipations of energy efficiency improvement,energy supply security and climate change control via the scale-up of renewable energy.Carbon emissions can be reduced by improving ene
51、rgy efficiency and by reducing the total amount of energy supply while ensuring that energy demand is always met.The multi-energy coupling system is effective in energy efficiency improvement,because it utilizes different forms of energy output which would otherwise be wasted.The diversity of energy
52、 sources basically improves the reliability and security of the energy supply.That being said,the multi-energy coupling system is nonetheless necessary to enable the integration of various energy sources.As mentioned in Sub-section 1.1,climate change can be mitigated by increasing the proportion of
53、renewable sources in the energy supply.On the flip side,technical issues may appear with large-scale usage of renewable energies;however,these can be addressed by the multi-energy coupling system.Through coordinated energy dispatching,the fluctuation of the renewable generation in the multi-energy s
54、ystem can be reduced via energy storage,demand response(DR)and so on.On one hand,the multi-energy system can help to absorb the renewable energy.On the other hand,it can support the main grid to stabilize the power flow.Thus,the multi-energy coupling system is a prerequisite to the scale-up of renew
55、able energies.2.3 Opportunities and challenges in the new situation2.3.1 Carbon neutrality targetThe 2015 Paris Agreement sets the goal of achieving net zero emissions by the second half of this century.A growing number of governments are instituting this goal into national strategies with the visio
56、n of a carbon-free future.In response,timetables for emission reduction have been respectively proposed by global major energy-consuming countries.2.3.2 Renewable energy:cost reduction and continued market growthThe renewable energies currently available include solar,wind,hydro,biomass,ocean and ge
57、othermal sources,among which solar and wind energies dominate in practical applications.In recent years,the cost of solar and wind generation has been reduced to a level comparable with that of coal-fired thermal power thanks to increasing installed capacity nurtured by the continuous development of
58、 solar PV(photovoltaic)and wind power technologies.The reduction in generation cost has,in turn,further driven faster growth in installed capacity of solar and wind generation.In 2020,globally installed PV and wind turbine capacity reached 127 GW and 111 GW,respectively,occupying 91%of the years new
59、ly installed renewable energy.2.3.3 Broad market prospectThe new power systems are featured by high penetration of renewable energy and the presence of a large number of distributed sources.It should be noted that the consumption of renewable energy and utilization of distributed sources can be impr
60、oved by energy conversion and complementation techniques.Therefore,the multi-energy scheme is highly promising,as it can be effectively integrated into the green transformation of energy.163.1 Multi-energy collaborative planning and design3.1.1 System planningJoint consideration of fundamental reali
61、ties of the country in which the system is located and its current development stage should be included in system planning in the multi-energy coupling technique.It is also indispensable to integrate ecological concepts into the system planning,so as to support the structural optimization of the ene
62、rgy supply and promote the coordinated development of regional multi-energy systems 1,21.Through system planning,optimized configuration schemes can be formulated for each energy subsystem at the equipment and network levels by integrating the forecasting data of the electricity-heat-cooling-gas loa
63、d as well as considering multiple goals regarding security,economy and flexibility.The planning of the multi-energy coupling system is a comprehensive task that includes making full use of the electricity-heat-cooling-gas load forecasting data in the planning area,combining the local resource endowm
64、ent,considering the economic,policy,social,environmental and other factors in the planning area,and addressing the multiple objectives of the system,including system operation safety,economy,flexibility,carbon emission,local consumption of renewable energy,etc.3.It comprehensively considers the data
65、 basis,such as the parameters of energy supply equipment and the prices of various energy resources 4.It adopts technologies including multi-energy coupling simulation,collaborative optimization and comprehensive evaluation,to formulate the optimal configuration scheme for each energy subsystem at t
66、he equipment or network level,under conditions of sufficient supply for meeting multi-energy load demand in the planning area 5.Table 3-1 lists the investment decision objects of system planning for the multi-energy coupling project.The basic constraints of system planning for a multi-energy coupled
67、 project are summarized as follows 6,7:1)Supply-demand balance in power:the real-time balance must be maintained between generated and consumed power in the absence of energy storage.2)Installation capacity constraints:according to the limitations of a planned project,upper and lower limits in insta
68、llation capacity are generally specified for system and network equipment.3)Operational constraints:all the equipment in the system must operate within a safe range,and the energy network is subject to power flow constraints as well as voltage/temperature/pressure limits,etc.4)Equipment coupling con
69、straints:adherence must be given to the mathematical coupling relationship in the input and output power of the system equipment.1 Numbers in square brackets refer to the Bibliography.Section 3Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling system17Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemT

73、ts as the planning goal are generally featured by the lowest total cost of the entire service life,which includes initial investment cost in construction of the multi-energy coupled system,in-service maintenance cost,energy costs and carbon tax costs,and excludes subsidies for renewable energy and e
74、nergy storage.Environmental protectionThe environmental benefit is quantified by the total carbon emissions of the systems entire service life.Accountable carbon emission includes the burning of fossil energy and other power purchases on the power supply side.Energy efficiencyEnergy efficiency is ev
75、aluated by the ratio of energy consumed at the user terminal over energy generated at the supply side in the entire system service life.ReliabilityCommon indexes in determining system reliability include the expectation and duration of energy supply shortage.FlexibilityCommon indexes in determining
76、system flexibility include the expectation of insufficient climbing resources and the flexibility index in technical and economic uncertainty.18Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemFigure 3-1|Smart integrated energy system planning flowchart5)Investment and operation logic constraints
77、:by involving multiple factors including planned project period,equipment lifespan,and system operation limits,logical constraints exist for the equipment construction and operating status.Although varieties exist in the planning objects and project types of multi-energy coupling systems,common plan
78、ning goals can be categorized into five types,including economy,environmental protection,energy efficiency,reliability and flexibility(see Table 3-2)8,9.The steps required for system planning of a multi-energy coupling project are summarized as follows and illustrated in Figure 3-1.1)Multiple load a
79、nalysis:for new or in-service projects with insufficient historical data,load estimation methods are often applied by accounting for the nature of the land and the load density per unit building area,in order to calculate the various loads in the planned area.For in-service projects with sufficient
80、historical load data,the load can be forecasted in short-term,medium-term and long-term periods according to the actual conditions of the planned area and the availability of data.2)Equipment selection:according to the actual limitations prevailing,such as the investment budget and land area,as well
81、 as multi-load 19Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemanalysis results,the equipment selection is carried out in such a way as to obtain the mathematical model at the equipment level and determine parameters including the conversion efficiency,investment and maintenance costs.3)Optimi
82、zation goal determination:multi-objective optimization is performed with regard to one of the goals listed in Table 3-2.Multi-objective optimization is also plausible with the weighting method,the constraint method,Pareto domination,or other methods.4)Investment budget and economic parameters determ
83、ination:limited by actual situations of the planning project,the upper limit of the investment budget should be determined as well as economic parameters,including project cycle,financing ratio,financing interest rate and financing period.In addition,subject to local energy policies and subsidies fo
84、r renewable energy and energy storage,energy prices should also be determined,including primary energies and secondary energies.5)Establishment and solving of the optimization model:the optimization model should be established by involving the above-mentioned user load,equipment model,objective func
85、tion,related parameters,as well as the necessary constraints.To enable the computation in commercial solvers,the model is generally established either in a mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)model or a mixed-integer second-order cone programming(MISOCP)model.6)Plan evaluation and comparison:based
86、 on the optimization results,some performances of the plan can be quantified,including the investment cost,fuel cost,operation and maintenance cost,pollution emission and system energy efficiency,thus enabling the conducting of post-planning evaluation in terms of economy,environmental protection an
87、d energy efficiency.Moreover,a variety of evaluation schemes can be used for post-planning evaluation,so as to determine the best solution.3.1.2 Energy hubs and interconnectors3.1.2.1 Energy abstract characteristics and supply-demand balance of smart integrated energy systemsMulti-energy coupling sy
88、stems can be characterized by either strong coupling,such as in a regional system,or weak coupling,such as in a cross-regional system.Integrated energies should be comprehensively and optimally dispatched in order to ensure supply-load balance.The energy supply,energy storage and load can be optimal
89、ly regulated by the dispatch module that is enabled with a corresponding multi-energy optimization control strategy.This is effected by integrating user demand-oriented or system goal-oriented objective optimization functions,input parameters of load forecast and equipment operating status,and an ap
90、propriate optimization algorithm.The mathematical model in optimization can be customized according to user demand by choosing one of the objective functions listed in Table 3-3,while integrating constraints,user power usage patterns and demand response capabilities.There exist a large number of dis
91、tributed devices requiring coordination in the multi-energy coupling system,which can be modelled by using nonlinear high-order optimization equations.The optimization can be solved by employing two techniques,namely hierarchical optimization and distributed optimization.Decentralized optimal dispat
92、ch is characterized by plug-and-play and automatic abnormal state recovery,which makes it ideal in multi-device optimal dispatch.In recent years,the increase in the computing ability of microprocessor chips has potentially expanded its application range into decentralized optimal scheduling.20Key te
93、chnologies of the multi-energy coupling system3.1.2.2 Energy conversion technology of multi-energy coupling systemsThe energies in the multi-energy coupling system can be mutually converted,which optimizes the utilization of energies.1)Conversion between electromagnetic energy and electric energyEle
94、ctromagnetic energy storage includes superconducting energy storage,supercapacitor energy storage,etc.A superconducting energy storage system(SESS)is enabled in supporting voltage maintenance,power compensation,frequency control and stability improvement,which benefits the reduction in power consump
95、tion and improvement of transmission efficiency.An SESS is developed based on the electrochemical double layer and is able to provide high-pulsed power,which enables transient heavy load smoothing capabilities and preservation of power quality in power peak cases.2)Conversion between mechanical/phys
96、ical energy and electrical energyAs a type of energy storage method,the flywheel energy storage battery has been gradually popularized due to its high-power density,short response time and long lifespan.Major examples of serviceable flywheel energy storage projects include:Active Powers 100 kW-2 000

101、coupling system3)Conversion between chemical energy and electric energyResearch attention is also being paid to electro-chemical energy conversion,especially for high-power and high-capacity energy storage devices such as fuel cells.The lithium-air battery,a new type of metal-air battery,is also cal
102、led a lithium fuel cell.The lithium metal anode is also certainly a promising battery system,but before it can be used in a rechargeable system,several performance and safety challenges remain to be overcome.4)Energy hub and interconnector interface technologyThe energy hub is a key part of the esta
103、blishment and application of the energy interconnection,where the high-voltage grid-side converter port can be connected to the AC distribution network for controlling the DC bus voltage.The connection of the low-voltage AC load port to an AC standard interface enables the power supply to the AC loa
104、d within the port and accessible distributed power sources,while the connection of the low-voltage DC load port to a DC standard interface enables the power supply to the DC load within the port and accessible DC equipment.Based on the control requirements of the energy hub,whatever occurs in the lo
105、ad within the port does not interrupt the voltage stability of the port.The goal of the energy hub is to increase electricity usage as the main green energy on the user side with a view to achieving carbon neutrality and environmental friendliness.3.1.2.3 Key technologies for energy storage in smart
106、 coupled energy systemsAs the energy storage of multi-energy coupling systems is highly complex and diversified,it is necessary to study key technologies including electric energy storage,pumped storage,physical energy storage,hydrogen energy storage,and electrochemical energy storage.It is also nec
107、essary to study the core control technology in the supply-demand balance of the multi-energy coupling energy system,as well as the configuration limit and operational technologies of energy storage.Hopefully,the maximum renewable energy consumption can be achieved by using the smallest amount of sto
108、red energy and optimal energy storage control.3.1.3 Energy routers3.1.3.1 The transient and dynamic control technology of energy routersAn energy router is a software and hardware control system in a multi-energy coupling system.The core technology in such a system mainly involves the elimination of
109、 instability caused by transient or dynamic disturbance due to the intermittency,uncertainty and fluctuation of renewable energy 10,11.For this purpose,an appropriate control strategy is determined by the energy hub through the identification of faults and the identification as well as prediction of
110、 disturbance.The precise forecasting of supply and demand in a multi-energy coupling system plays an important role in instability control.The forecasting includes long-term and short-term schemes,among which long-term forecasting refers to a time scale of a few minutes up to a number of hours and s
111、hort-term forecasting refers to a time scale of seconds that greatly impacts the dynamic disturbance.Strictly speaking,the control of dynamic disturbance is technically different from that of transient disturbance.1)Dynamic disturbance control of multi-energy coupling system(50 ms2 s,IEC TS 62898-3-
112、1)It has been found that dynamic stability issues became apparent in the multi-energy coupling system,induced by high penetration of intermittent renewable energy.Non-convergent oscillations of voltage and frequency may occur in cases in 22Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemwhich th
113、e renewable energy capacity is beyond acceptance,following which the protection unit eliminates the renewable generation in seconds or even minutes.The case can be even worse if fluctuating load or fault occurs simultaneously.The transition process induced by disturbance may include dynamic characte
114、ristics ranging from microseconds to minutes in a multi-energy coupling system.A dynamic stability issue of this nature would significantly weaken the acceptance of renewable energy and the energy-supply reliability of such a system.2)The transient disturbance control of the multi-energy coupling sy
115、stem(050 ms,IEC TS 62898-3-1)Attention is always drawn to the transient disturbance issue in a multi-energy coupling system,as the system highly integrates multiple energy sources.Due to the installation of many power electronic devices and the fluctuating nature of distributed sources,the system ma
116、y be severely disturbed by transients caused by unplanned switching of the islanded or grid-connected operation or switching in/out of the heavy load.Such a transient disturbance is potentially capable of causing load loss or system collapse.Thus,the appearance of transient disturbance control inten
117、sively contributes to the practical application and commercialization of multi-energy coupling systems.Strategies including droop control and virtual synchronous control are supposed to be adopted by the multi-energy coupling system to balance the power and adjust both the voltage and the frequency.
118、In the case of grid-connected operation,the relay protection unit removes the fault part,maintaining the independent operation of the rest of the system.In addition,the multi-energy coupling system responds to the bulk power system demand by outputting or absorbing power in accordance with dispatch
119、instructions.The micro source operates as a power source,of which the power output/absorption characteristics can be regulated by converters.In the case of islanded operation without support in voltage and frequency from a large grid,the sources in the multi-energy coupling system are given the task
120、s of maintaining the systems stability and meeting load demand.It is noted that short-term supply-load balance should be achieved by transient disturbance control.3.1.3.2 Multi-time-scale management technology of smart integrated energy systemsSo far,there have been two types of time scales in the o
121、ptimal dispatching of multi-energy coupling systems,namely the single time scale and the multiple time scale.A longer time scale would result in a greater error in obtained dispatching planning value.A multi-objective dispatching method is established for a multi-energy coupling system by considerin
122、g both the operational and environmental costs.Moreover,for optimal profit,high energy efficiency,good supply-load match and a multi-energy demand response model should be established from the perspective of the elastic matrix.An optimization model should also be established subject to the constrain
123、ts of economy,environment,unit output limit,energy balance,etc.Considering the randomicity of wind,solar,load and electricity price,a two-stage random programming method is preferred to effectively optimize the operation,while meeting time-varying requirements and operational constraints.In addition
124、,the multi-time-scale scheduling strategy can be well applied practically only by optimizing corresponding mathematical models in different scenarios and improving computational efficiency.23Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling system3.2 Energy cascade utilization technology3.2.1 CHP and CC
125、HPCombined heat and power(CHP)and combined cooling,heat and power(CCHP)have the advantages of low cost,high efficiency,automatic process control,long overhaul interval (40 000 hours),easy installation,and reliable operation.They also comply with international emission standards.Another advantage of
126、CHP is reliability in generating an annual base load that can hardly be guaranteed by renewable resources.The main components of a CHP unit include a gas turbine,turbine support frame,generator,electrical control cabinet,cooling system,and heat exchanger connected to the heating system(see Figure 3-
127、2).Specifically when studying the penetration of CHP in micro-grid projects,it is worth noting that CHP in recent and planned micro-grids is gradually losing its early impact on the dominant position of PV and non-co-generation natural gas power generation(not including heat recovery options).Howeve
128、r,CHP is expected to continue forming an important share in future microgrids and power systems.According to the blog of ICF(a consulting company that runs a database of microgrids and co-generation installations in the US),nearly 20%of microgrids planned to operate in the US by 2023 will incorporat
129、e CHP technology.In countries with abundant natural gas reserves and a lower gas price compared to electricity prices,the economic advantages of CHP are even more obvious.This encourages consumers to use gas-fired CHP technology to generate electricity and allows selling electricity back to the powe
130、r grid,thereby reducing operating costs.Accordingly,fuel-based CHP power plants have a high potential for being an essential part of the energy supply if they are properly updated technically.This applies both to fossil fuel CHP and renewable fuel CHP power plants.By 2030,CHP power plants are expect
131、ed to replace most non-CHP fossil fuel power plants and provide most of the base-load electricity,thereby helping to reduce emissions.However,it is predicted that after 2030 the role of fossil fuel-powered CHP power plants will gradually be weakened.Figure 3-2|A typical CHP system24Key technologies
132、of the multi-energy coupling systemFigure 3-3|A typical CCHP systemThe main controversy surrounding the future of CHP is that it provides only for low carbon,instead of zero carbon,emissions,especially in the case of natural gas CHP devices.This contradicts the national legislation of many countries
133、 stipulating that the power generation system in those countries is planned to generate zero-carbon emissions by 2050.The main problem involved is that the supply of renewable fuels is limited.A promising alternative option involves hydrogen,which is available in a sufficiently large capacity.The fo
134、cus of the latest development of CHP is related to the flexibility of the system.A flexible CHP system can provide support for the stability and security of the power grid.CCHP,as illustrated by Figure 3-3,is an extension of CHP.Also known as the tri-cogeneration system,CCHP indicates that part of t
135、he heat generated is also used to generate cooling energy.CCHP consists of a gas turbine,generator,heat exchanger,and absorption refrigerator.According to CCHP components and energy requirements,the overall efficiency of a CCHP system is approximately 75%to 85%,thereby saving fuel and realizing mutu
136、al benefit for consumers and the government.3.2.2 The utilization of hydrogen energyHydrogen energy is a flexible secondary energy source that can be converted from surplus electricity generated by renewable energy sources.Transmitted through pipes or trucks,it can be used as a raw material and fuel
137、 in various fields such as industry,energy,transportation and construction.It assists in realizing the coupling of the power grid and the gas grid.In some scenarios,techniques such as combined heat and power can also be applied to realize the coupled application of electricity,gas and heat,so as to
138、enhance energy efficiency,system flexibility and cleanliness.Hydrogen from surplus electricity generated by renewable energy sources will help to improve the flexibility of power system regulation,promote the development of renewable energy and contribute to carbon neutrality of energy consumption.T
139、he electrical efficiency of hydrogen production from renewable energy varies from 61%to 80%depending on the type of technology,which is relatively low in various hydrogen storage technologies.The efficiency is lower compared to pumped storage,electromagnetic storage,lithium-ion battery storage and o
140、ther technologies,and it is comparable to compressed air storage.25Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemHydrogen can be stored in different scales and efficiencies by different storage methods such as geological storage and storage tanks,on a scale comparable to compressed air and lar
141、ger than energy storage technologies such as lithium-ion batteries and electromagnetic energy storage.Its continuous discharge time can be achieved from hourly to weekly levels,which is greater than for technologies such as electromagnetic energy storage and electrochemical energy storage.In the ele
142、ctrical power field,technologies such as solid fuel cells or hydrogen gas turbines work as carriers for hydrogen utilization,which enables balance in periodic changes of electrical load,auxiliary services to the power system,and combinations of cooling,heating as well as power.Solid fuel cell power
143、generation is mainly applied in scenarios including distributed power stations,household combined heat and power systems,and backup power sources.Distributed fuel cell power plants generally have a scale of no more than 100 MW,which can be used as a supplement to the primary power grid and can also
144、generate electricity independently in islands,mountainous and remote areas.Micro combined heat and power systems generally use 15 kW micro fuel cell devices,which are fully compatible with existing infrastructure.In the case of utilization as the backup power source,fuel cells are mainly used for co
145、mmunications,electricity,internet data centres,off-grid villages,schools,and clinics with a power level of 35 kW.3.3 Energy conversion technologyThanks to the energy revolution,the conversion between electricity and other types of energy will be increasingly demanded in the future energy system.Impo
146、rtance is given to the mutual conversion between electricity and several final energy consumption products including heat,cooling,and gas.In a typical multi-energy coupling system,the utilization of renewable energy can be improved by optimizing the coordination of electricity,natural gas and heat s
147、upply.3.3.1 Power-to-gas(P2G)Power-to-gas(P2G),which originated from the expansion of renewable energy input in Germany,is a method of producing combustible gas using electricity,water and CO2.P2G,as a new method of grid connection for renewable energies,technically supports large-scale power genera
148、tion from renewable energies and indirectly reduces the power generation from fossil fuels,which benefits the multi-win situation in the energy interconnection.In electricity-to-hydrogen conversion,hydrogen is produced by water electrolysis using redundant electrical power and it can be delivered in
149、 a gas pipeline or kept in storage as shown in Figure 3-4,of which the total energy conversion efficiency is in the range of 75%85%.Currently,three main techniques are applied for water-electrolysis-based hydrogen production,namely electrolysis of alkaline solutions,electrolysis of solid polymer mem
150、branes,and hydrogen production from solid oxides,among which the alkaline solution electrolysis method has the longest service and highest maturity.Electricity-to-natural gas conversion further converts hydrogen products from electrolysis along with CO2 into methane and water,with an overall electri
151、c-to-natural gas conversion efficiency of 45%60%.In comparison to electricity-to-hydrogen,although a lower conversion efficiency characterizes electricity-to-natural gas,it is advantaged by easier transportation,storage,and supply stability in the multi-energy coupling system.The entire P2G process
152、is illustrated in Figure 3-4.26Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling system3.3.2 Power-to-liquid(P2L)Power-to-liquid(P2L)technology is a method of producing liquid hydrocarbons from electricity,water and CO2.In comparison to gas,superiority is shown in P2L in hard-to-decarbonize industries d
153、ue to the higher energy density of the synthetic liquid fuel.The integration of power technique,transportation and chemistry in the P2L process enables the consumption of excessive renewable energy and facilitates the replacement of fossil fuels usage.The basic process flow of P2L includes water ele
154、ctrolysis,carbon capture,synthesis,and product upgrading,which is depicted in Figure 3-5 12,13.The main products of P2L include methanol,dimethyl ether(DME),and Fischer-Tropsch(FT).Methanol:Although the practice of methanol production from carbon dioxide and hydrogen dates back to the 1920s,it has f
155、ailed to be industrially applied.The commercial application of P2L in methanol can be greatly facilitated by enhanced system thermal efficiency,the lower cost of hydrogen supply and feasibility in small-scale operation.Dimethyl ether:Currently,DME is almost exclusively produced from syngas in a two-
156、stage process using methanol as an intermediate.Fischer-Tropsch:After almost a century of development in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis,at present,profitable FT projects generally appear in major factories with coal and natural gas as the feedstock.In the past decade,an increasing number of small-scale f
157、actories based on biomass have appeared.Currently,the opposite developing trend is indicated between state-of-the-art FT processes and traditional power-to-FT(PtFT)fuel plants.Their goal is to achieve profitability by allowing a more decentralized,flexible operation and an easy scale-up through modu
158、larity.In summary,challenges still exist in the development of P2L,although it is advantaged by high energy density,easy application,and availability as an Figure 3-4|P2G process27Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemembedded fuel for flexible application on the user side.Nevertheless
159、,P2L fuel is a potential low-carbon energy option for applications that require high energy density fuel and high storage stability(e.g.aviation).3.3.3 Gas-to-power(G2P)The combination of gas-to-power(G2P)and P2G enables a closed loop of electricity-gas-electricity conversion.The further development
160、 of P2G and gas transmission pipelines allow for an irreplaceable role of distributed gas-based power and energy conversion in energy consumption,especially in the fields of transportation and construction.The current G2P technologies mainly include fuel cells of hydrogen and methane as well as vari
161、ous gas-fired internal combustion engines 14.Fuel cells:According to the nature of the electrolytes,common fuel cells are categorized by proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFC),solid oxide fuel cells(SOFC),molten carbonate fuel cells(MCFC),phosphoric acid fuel cells(PAFC),and alkaline fuel cells(
162、AFC).As shown in Figure 3-6,theoretically,the energy conversion efficiency of fuel cells can be as high as 90%.Limited by actual constraints,the practical energy conversion efficiency of various fuel cells is generally from 40%to 60%.Although wide application of fuel cells is limited by high cost an
163、d technical immaturity,it is still considered to be a promising technology due to its clean,high-efficiency and non-polluting advantages.In particular,as the PEMFC is featured by high power,low-temperature operation,a fast start and no noise,high priority is given to applications in electric vehicle
164、s,aerospace,military,and other fields.Gas-fired internal combustion engines and gas turbines:Gas-fired combustion engines and gas turbines constitute the most common terminals of the gas-fired CHP system.The internal combustion engine dominates the market below 1MW,because the power generation effic
165、iency of gas turbines is usually low in this capacity range.Two techniques draw in the 15 MW market.For the market beyond 5 MW,gas turbines dominate because of the at least 30%efficiency of the primary power generation and higher performances in power generation efficiency,regulation flexibility and
166、 economic efficiency with a combined cycle.3.3.4 Heat-to-power(H2P)Heat-to-power(H2P)produces steam for power generation by using heat from exhaust gas,waste liquid,waste heat and combustible substances,which facilitates not only energy conservation but Figure 3-5|P2L process28Key technologies of th
167、e multi-energy coupling systemalso environmental protection.Limited by the low temperature of the working substance,the large size of the equipment and a great consumption of metal materials are unavoidable.It is noted that the waste heat used for power generation mainly includes high-temperature fl
168、ue gas,chemical reaction heat,waste gas,waste liquid heat,low-temperature waste heat,etc.15.The H2P generation technologies using low-temperature waste heat mainly include Rankine cycle-based thermal power generation systems(e.g.organic Rankine cycle(ORC)and water vapor expansion cycle),Kalina cycle
169、,and ammonia absorption power refrigeration composite cycle.3.4 Advanced energy storage technologies3.4.1 H2 storage technologyHydrogen storage technology is a key step for hydrogen utilization,as long-term storage is permitted for H2.On the one hand,H2 can be easily produced by electrical energy.On
170、 the other hand,it can be converted to electrical energy rapidly through fuel cells,so as to increase the operational flexibility for future low-carbon integrated energy systems.The hydrogen storage methods include high-pressure gas storage,liquefied storage,solid adsorption storage,organic liquid s
171、torage,etc.3.4.2 Compressed air energy storage,flywheel energy storageCompressed air energy storage(CAES)and flywheel energy storage are two typical techniques in mechanical energy storage,which are both featured by large capacity,prolonged storage,high power density,long lifespan,deep charging and
172、discharging,fast response,and high safety.They facilitate solving problems regarding the coordination and scheduling of a large-scale power system.As illustrated in Figure 3-7,CAES stores energy by compressing air and discharges the energy by releasing the compressed air to drive a turbine,which ena
173、bles high energy capacity and consistent operation(i.e.from hours to days).The slower response time of CAES in comparison with other storage technologies benefits its applications in providing peak capacity,secondary and tertiary Figure 3-6|Schematic diagram of fuel cell29Key technologies of the mul
174、ti-energy coupling systemoperating reserves,as well as energy arbitrage.In addition,the great inertia of CAES due to the existence of rotating turbines can be used to dampen fast frequency fluctuations.Technically,CAES can be achieved by multiple techniques including supplementary combustion compres
175、sed air energy storage,adiabatic compressed air energy storage,deep-cooled liquefied air energy storage,supercritical compressed air energy storage,etc.Flywheel energy storage uses electric energy to drive a flywheel rotating at a high speed to store energy,which has the advantages of high energy de
176、nsity,fast charging and discharging speed,and high energy conversion efficiency.Thermal compressed air energy storage(TACAS)is a new energy storage technology that combines compressed air and flywheel methods.To overcome the problem of the slow dynamic response of CAES,a flywheel system is connected
177、 to CAES,in order to provide energy for a few seconds at the beginning until the CAES system starts up and takes over.As its name suggests,TACAS also utilizes a thermal energy storage method that can provide longer backup time and high energy density.As is the case with CAES,thermal energy storage i
178、s harmless to the environment.3.4.3 Mobile distributed energy storage technology1)The dual attributes of electric vehiclesWith the increasing popularity of electric vehicles(EVs),technical problems are created for the power system due to large-scale random and disordered charging and discharging beh
179、aviours.It should be noted that EVs have dual attributes of controllable load and storable energy.Currently,due to the asynchronous development of EV industries,Figure 3-7|Compressed air energy storage system30Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemsome countries mainly adopt integrated
180、 demand responses on EVs with a relatively low degree of marketization.Therefore,it will be necessary to conduct research on issues of renewable energy consumption and the friendly interaction of EVs.Preference should be given to technical research efforts regarding a)two-way interactive technology
181、for charging piles based on cyber-physical integration;b)cloud-side collaborative EV integration technology based on plug-and-control;c)closed-loop optimization and precise control technology considering resource heterogeneity;d)precise value transmission technology contributing to the operation and
182、 sharing of EVs.2)Portable small energy storage system(ESS)In recent years,as rapid growth has consistently been registered in global renewable energy power generation,the global energy system is gradually evolving into distributed mobile source mode.As an essential part of distributed mobile energy
183、,ESS is of great significance in realizing large-scale integration of renewable energy,distributed energy and expansion of micro-grid applications.Electro-chemical ESS is the most widely utilized method among multiple ESS techniques,which can be achieved by either fixed ESSs or mobile ESSs.Compared
184、with the fixed type,the latter has a smaller capacity and integrates the energy storage battery,battery management system(BMS),and power conversion system(PCS)in the form of a container/storage.As a result,the control and dispatch of mobile ESS can be realized through an energy management system(EMS
185、).Thanks to the advantages it provides of strong flexibility,high reliability,short response time,good mobility,easy transportation and installation of the system as well as long-distance transportation capability,mobile energy storage has been applied in many micro-grid and smart grid projects and
186、has demonstrated benefits in the capabilities it provides for ensuring the stability of the power system,regulating system voltage and frequency,facilitating the connection of renewable energy,and affording an emergency power supply.3)Distributed small ESSFrom a technical standpoint,common challenge
187、s of energy storage are associated with key materials,manufacturing processes and energy conversion efficiency.For large-scale applications,it is necessary to further solve problems of stability,reliability and durability.Therefore,great importance is given to the use of intelligent system managemen
188、t and optimization of the ESS configuration for the establishment of feasible energy storage optimization solutions.Complementary applications of energy and power storageThe application of ESS takes two typical forms:energy and power support.Based on the currently applied technique,the unit-power co
189、st of energy-type storage devices is relatively higher,as is the unit-energy cost of power-type storage.In the application of distributed energy storage,technical and economic efficiency can be improved by complementary utilization of multiple energy-type and power-type energy storage devices.Nevert
190、heless,the effective combination of two types of energy storage can only be achieved by research in the selection of energy storage types,capacity allocation and coordinated control techniques.Renewable energy integration based on the heat storage support of the combined heat and power system(CHPS)I
191、n the combined heat and power system,the application of heat storage decouples power supply and heat supply,thus improving the operating flexibility of the system.In addition,electricity and heat storage can also achieve deeper participation in the electricity market.In the case of district heating,
192、heat storage is effected by reserving hot water in a tank.The cost is comparably lower for heat storage under atmospheric pressure,whereas the heat stored 31Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemin a unit volume of pressured storage is higher by 30%-40%.The current operating principle
193、of heat storage is to reduce peak load to avoid repeated heating.In addition,the price of heat can be reduced by using CHPS in a heating-integrated network.Distributed energy storage based on electric vehicle batteriesThe wide application of EVs can alleviate the problems of fossil fuel shortage,car
194、bon emissions and urban environmental protection.The grid connection of intermittent renewable energy has triggered the notion of using EVs as mobile energy storage devices.Electric vehicle batteries can be scheduled to serve as a distributed power source or a dispatchable load,which can be involved
195、 in the provision of auxiliary services,effectively including system peak shaving by reasonable and orderly charging or discharging.This is one of the core elements of current research in what is called the vehicle-to-grid(V2G)technique.Virtual power plant(VPP)based on energy storageWith the rapid d
196、evelopment of distributed renewable energy and smart grids,distributed generation(DG)will be extensively employed.However,the high penetration of DG elements produces technical problems including power flow variation,line congestion,voltage flickering,harmonic effects,etc.Moreover,the large-scale in
197、tegration of DG is also limited by the install and forget approach to operations and capacity constraints in the electricity market.To address this weakness,the VPP has been proposed,which integrates DG,energy storage devices and controllable loads(e.g.electric vehicles)in a given area of the distri
198、bution network via advanced control,metering and communication technologies.The VPP optimizes and coordinates the operation,while ameliorating the allocation and utilization of resources.As a special power plant,it participates in the operation of the power grid and the power market.Wind-solar-compr
199、essed air energy storage technologyThe wind-solar complementary power generation system integrates local wind and solar generators.By taking advantage of the complementary character of wind energy and solar energy,further integration of wind-solar complementarity power generation and compressed air
200、energy storage could alleviate the unfavourable impact of fluctuating wind and solar power to the grid.3.5 Demand response technologyThe transition to a cleaner energy system introduces a great deal of volatility and uncertainty,requiring a wider range of flexible resources to ensure a real-time bal
201、ance between energy supply and demand.It should be noted that an important source of flexibility comes from demand-side management,especially demand response technology.According to the US Department of Energy,demand response is defined as diverting end-users from their normal energy consumption pat
202、terns by inducing reductions in electricity consumption through time-varying electricity prices or incentive payments when wholesale market prices are high or system reliability is threatened 16.Although electric energy constitutes the centre of future energy consumption,it is technically difficult
203、to store it on a large scale.Therefore,although the definition is focused on power demand response,it can also be applied to integrated energy systems.Demand response in the multi-energy coupling system refers to the behaviour of energy consumers who participate in the market through their response
204、to the price signals or incentive mechanisms of the market and through changes they introduce in the inherent consumption pattern.The development of demand response technology should prioritize the research and development of intelligent equipment supporting high-speed information collection and com
205、munication functions,by which the demand 32Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemresponse mechanism is established for the multi-energy coupling system.Subsequently,artificial intelligence(AI)can be engaged to analyze and predict user energy consumption behaviours,and personalized dema
206、nd response strategies are then developed based on the data.Eventually,relying on advanced communication and AI technologies,the integrated-energy demand response will be fully automatic and controllable in a real-time framework,to form a complete market transaction mechanism of integrated-energy de
207、mand response.3.5.1 Energy consumption behaviour perception3.5.1.1 User information perception technologyThe deployment of demand response devices on the power system/equipment side of industrial,commercial and residential users enables the acquisition of electrical parameters,thermal parameters,ope
208、rating status parameters and environmental parameters of power system/equipment,allowing proactive evaluation of the demand response capability for power system/equipment.According to the electricity price and incentive information issued by the superior master station,a demand response strategy is
209、automatically generated to support the participation of the users power system/equipment in the demand response business 17.Front-end sensing includes all technologies that realize sensing and control functions(e.g.all kinds of sensors,radio frequency identification(RFID),micromachinery).Based on in
210、telligent sensing technology,comprehensive acquisition and evaluation can be achieved on the running status of the power system/equipment,which improves calculation accuracy of the response capacity and enhances participation convenience of demand response business.3.5.1.2 User portrait technology1)
211、User portrait architectureThe user label architecture that supports the demand response of multi-energy coupling is a two-layer structure composed of data sources and label definitions,where data source includes user electricity consumption information,user basic information,power grid company marke
212、ting data,etc.18.The tagging process includes the generation of tags and library management.Specifically,the generation of tags includes direct generation and analysis-based generation.The directly generated tags are generally users natural attributes,such as gender and age.Analysis-based tag genera
213、tion refers to the formation of the proper label system by data analysis,to guide the definition of labels.The management of the label library is defined as storing and updating the generated labels.Users may develop new power consumption habits within a period of time,after which the labels in the
214、library should be updated to match the power consumption characteristics of existing users.Figure 3-8 shows the architecture of a typical demand response user portrait service.2)Data sources for user portrait analysisUser information of a power enterprise is mainly composed of internal and external
215、data,including real-time electricity consumption,geographic information system(GIS)data,customer service system,marketing system,etc.Data required by user portrait service businesses based on energy big data can be categorized into three types,as shown in Table 3-4:user energy characteristic informa
216、tion,automobile charging pile information,and distributed power information 19.3)Power user label system constructionThe power user portrait label mainly includes user basic information,electricity consumption information and marketing data information.Power companies establish the user behaviour la

218、orrelation between user behaviours,and classifying the power behaviours.Not all labels are necessarily stored in the label library.A too-high granularity of the label library leads to library redundancy,while a too-small granularity causes the failure in depicting users.Thus,the label library should
219、 be appropriately adjusted based on service requirements and user characteristics.It should be noted that the energy consumption information is supposed to focus on the power consumption behaviour analysis of multi-energy coupling.User portrait improves the effect of user behaviour research.The key
220、work of forming user portraits is to classify and label users by extracting user characteristics through feature labels.The label model assists in analyzing the relationship between power supply and demand,as well as understanding the influencing factors related to power supply and demand.3.5.1.3 Us

226、 efficiency assessment(EEA)is a technique to evaluate the energy consumption status of energy consumers,which is widely adopted in industrial,commercial,and residential fields.The users can benefit from EEA by knowing their own energy consumption,weakness in energy consumption,and energy waste.EEA a
227、lso benefits the electric company through assisting in energy conservation,carbon emission reduction and improving demand-side management.35Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemFigure 3-9|Response potential assessment method and process?Note:LMMD=List mapping motion descriptionThe piv
228、otal step of EEA is to establish a systematic and all-around metrics system,through which the characteristics,habits and energy utilization of energy consumers can be reported correctly 21.By assigning reasonable weighting coefficients to metrics,the comprehensive assessment method is adopted to pro
229、vide a scientific assessment for energy consumers.A typical process of residential EEA is presented in Figure 3-10,where the entropy method and technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution(TOPSIS)method are combined.3.5.2.2 Automatic demand response technologyAutomatic demand re
230、sponse(ADR)technology triggers automatic dispatching of the loads without manual operations,which is shown in Figure 3-11.Thanks to the development of intelligence in multi-energy coupling systems,ADR technology is being expanded to multi-energy fields,including data collecting,transmission,and anal
231、ysis of multi-energy demand response on the user side to form an adjustable resource pool.In case of high electricity price or occurrence of the disturbance,ADR sends the trigger signals to the energy management system on the user side.The trigger signal then activates the demand response to realizi
232、ng the peak and shaving according to the predefined control logic scheme for load equipment and distributed power supply devices.Afterwards,the information is fed back to the ADR server 22.In order to realize fully automatic control in a real-time framework of integrated energy demand response for a
233、 large number of users,intelligence integrated energy demand response terminals with self-learning capability and online real-time control are embedded in the multi-energy coupling system,as well as a precise and reliable automatic control 36Key technologies of the multi-energy coupling systemFigure

235、current framework,operation model and mechanisms of ADR systems vary greatly among countries,and no standard has been proposed.Among them,cyber-physical systems(CPS)support the information interaction between the grid and the loads.Moreover,CPS also supports active identification of the access of us
236、er-side devices to the multi-energy coupling demand response,which expedites the bilateral information coordination and sharing of network and load 24.In terms of key technologies such as interface standards for grid-to-load,the most popular protocol standards are the US OpenADR2.0 and China power i
237、ndustry standard DL/T 1867-2018,Electricity Demand Response Information Exchange Specification,which potentially unify and standardize the equipment communication interface and improve the efficiency of demand response.The differences between ADR and traditional DR are shown in Table 3-5.3.6 Intelli
238、gent technologies3.6.1 Integrated energy system service platformGreat changes can be observed in energy production and consumption patterns due to economic development,among which energy interconnection is an unavoidable trend.As a response,many energy enterprises tend to focus on multi-energy busin
