Optimal dispatch for cross-regional integrated energy system with renewable energy uncertainties: A unified spatial-temporal cooperative framework

Cross -regional energy sharing is a promising way to alleviate the imbalance in energy distribution. However, there is a risk that the uncertain fluctuations of intermittent renewable energy sources (RES) could be transmitted across regional transmissions, resulting in large-scale system economic inefficiency and security concerns. To this end, a unified spatial -temporal cooperative framework for the integrated energy system, which considers the coordination between intra-regional multi -energy coupling and cross -regional multi -agent -system energy sharing, is proposed in this paper. First, in the temporal dimension, a multi -time -scale stochastic decision -making model is established based on stochastic model predictive control (SMPC). Thus, slow -response units are arranged to gain economic goals in day -ahead stage and the closed -loop rolling adjustment is implemented on fastresponse units to achieve accuracy supply -demand balance in real-time stage. Second, in the spatial dimension, a fully distributed dispatch approach is adopted to address the information sharing barriers, which only requires neighboring information and considers consistency of boundary control variables on border lines. Finally, to improve the computational efficiency, the established complex time sequential model is decomposed into a set of time -discrete parallel sub -problems, using the optimal condition decomposition (OCD) technique. Simulation results on a cross -regional test system demonstrate that proposed framework can increase the wind power consumption capacity and reduce operation cost through cross -regional cooperation, while the parallel decomposition can save 67.25 % of the computation time relative to the serial computation.
