State Transition Modeling Method for Optimal Dispatching for Integrated Energy System Based on Cyber—Physical System

The traditional energy hub based model has difficulties in clearly describing the state transition and transition conditions of the energy unit in the integrated energy system (IES). Therefore, this study proposes a state transition modeling method for an IES based on a cyber-physical system (CPS) to optimize the state transition of energy unit in the IES. This method uses the physical, integration, and optimization layers as a three-layer modeling framework. The physical layer is used to describe the physical models of energy units in the IES. In the integration layer, the information flow is integrated into the physical model of energy unit in the IES to establish the state transition model, and the transition conditions between different states of the energy unit are given. The optimization layer aims to minimize the operating cost of the IES and enables the operating state of energy units to be transferred to the target state. Numerical simulations show that, compared with the traditional modeling method, the state transition modeling method based on CPS achieves the observability of the operating state of the energy unit and its state transition in the dispatching cycle, which obtains an optimal state of the energy unit and further reduces the system operating costs.
