Economical Scheduling of Multi Carrier Energy Systems integrating Renewable, Energy Storage and Demand Response under Energy Hub Approach

Green gas emission due to fossil fuels and growing energy needs are developing progressive advances of integrating distributed generation technologies; Combined Heat and Power (CHP), Renewable Resources, Energy Storage Technologies and Demand Shifting program which are subject to efficiencyenhancement, emission lower, reliability enhancement and economic improvement in novel electrical power system; smart grid. In this paper, Energy Hub (EH) model is flexibility extended as a strong solution for multi carrier energy systems for robust operation of the resources in smart distribution network. In this hub, Distributed Generations; Renewable, Energy Storage, Demand Response (DR) are modeled and integrated to gas and electricity infrastructures, and then they are utilized to serve hub required demands. GAMS; high level algebraic modeling software is employed for Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model of proposed approach to endorse when and how much of which technology should be optimally operated to achieve minimum operation costs. Finally, impact of the resources is compared on hub operation costs
