Joint chance‐constrained coordinated scheduling for electricity‐heat coupled systems considering hydrogen storage

Abstract

AbstractStrong interdependence between power production and heat supply from combined power and heat units could restrict the wind power integration. Deploying hydrogen storage, typically formed by the electrolyser, hydrogen tank, and fuel cell, could be a promising measure to accommodate surplus wind power and facilitate the coordinated operation of power and heat. The authors consider coordinated scheduling under wind power uncertainty for an electricity‐heat coupled system with hydrogen storage and propose a distributionally robust joint chance‐constrained coordinated scheduling (DRJCC‐CS) model, where the waste heat from the electrolyser and fuel cell is incorporated. The authors design distributionally robust joint chance constraints to account for wind power uncertainty related constraints and derive their tractable inner and outer mixed‐integer convex approximations. Consequently, the proposed DRJCC‐CS model is casted into a mixed‐integer convex programme. Case studies are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DRJCC‐CS method.
