Optimal scheduling strategies for agricultural park integrated energy systems: An extensive review and prospects

Agricultural Park Integrated Energy Systems (APIES) play a pivotal role in facilitating energy complementarity and hierarchical utilization, thereby driving the economic and low-carbon transformation of agricultural parks issue. Given the deep coupling between agricultural production and energy consumption, there is a critical need for optimized energy dispatch technologies tailored to agricultural scenarios. To address this, this paper systematically reviews research literature from the past decade, providing a comprehensive synthesis of APIES concepts, distinctive characteristics, and dispatch methodologies from the perspective of optimized scheduling in agricultural parks. The primary objectives are to offer insights for minimizing energy consumption in agricultural processes while maximizing APIES operational efficiency. By integrating agricultural park characteristics with optimization scheduling, we propose a "4M '' optimization framework encompassing multi-energy integrated dispatching, multi-objective optimization, multi-time scale scheduling, and multi-network cooperative scheduling, while thoroughly analyzing the characteristics, advantages, and limitations of various scheduling methods. Finally, we present key insights for future research directions.
