Probabilistic Energy Flow Analysis of Multi-Carrier Energy System in the Presence of Energy DR Programs

Abstract

In recent years, a great deal of attention has been paid to multi-energy systems that improve energy efficiency and reliability. In this respect, this paper examines the issue of energy flow of these systems in a probabilistic context in the presence of energy responsive programs. Responsive energy programs are provided by system operator of multi-carrier energy to manage these networks where energy customers can participate in it. The probabilistic method used is 2m + 1 point estimation method, which has high speed and high accuracy. The presented numerical results show the impact of each responsive energy program on the cost of operating a multi-carrier system.
