摘要:AbstractMulti-energy systems which bring together different forms of energy, such as electricity, gas and heat, to coordinate in the process of supply, transmission and consumption provide much higher flexibility over traditional energy systems in energy utilization. This paper deals with the economic dispatch problem in multi-energy systems in a distributed manner. Each agent optimizes its local objective function with regard to local coupled limits and a global constraint via local communications only. A distributed algorithm is proposed based on duality analysis and splitting methods.This algorithm adopts a non-linear mapping method to linearize the nonlinearity arisen from coupling relationship among energy carriers. We show that the proposed algorithm converges at a nonergodic rate of O(1/k). Simulations are demonstrated to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.
