Optimal operation of energy-intensive load considering electricity carbon market

Energy-intensive load benefits from low electricity tariff and carbon emission, since they occupy certain amounts in the total cost of the product. This paper considers energy-intensive load participation in the electricity as well as carbon trading to reduce the cost. Firstly, an electricitycarbon model is established based on the correlation value method to calculate the carbon emissions of energy-intensive load based on their electricity consumption to realize the carbon amount. Afterwards, the baseline method is used to allocate free carbon emission quotas to energy-intensive load and a reward-penalty carbon trading price mechanism considering offset is proposed. Next, the objective function to achieve maximum benefits, and to reduce output fluctuation, and to improve new energy accommodation is proposed. The case studies show that, by comparing multi-objective function optimization, the optimization target proposed in this paper can effectively reduce wind power output fluctuations and improve wind power accommodation. Through the total participation in carbon trading and electricity market income, multiobjective optimization can increase the system income while ensuring that energy-intensive load meets production requirements under the premise of reducing carbon emissions, verifying the effectiveness of the low-carbon optimal operation model proposed in this paper.
