| Abstract |
In this paper, we propose an effective bidirectional heat trade approach among them in thermal storage-centered micro thermal network composed of a variety of prosumers and consumers. Currently, the energy supply system has been evolving from one-way supply structure of large-scale power plant to bidirectional trade structure among small-scale distributed resources. Therefore, for bidirectionally free trade among prosumer and consumer within the micro thermal network, the star topology network, which is based on the thermal storage-centered micro thermal network comprising various prosumers and consumers, should be configured. Consequently, the bidirectional thermal energy trade model with a optimally cost-effective characteristics which depends on consumer load profile was derived, and subsequent simulation validated it’s optimized performance. |
