Abstract: The combination of biomass and solar energy in the combined cooling heating and power (CCHP) system is conducive to reducing carbon dioxide emissions of the system. To improve the system's economic performance under the punishment of carbon tax, this paper optimizes the system from system design and operation strategies. A hybrid renewable energy CCHP system with shaft power distribution structure of an internal combustion engine (ICE) is proposed. By optimizing the shaft power distribution of ICE, the direct drive heat pump is realized, and the efficiency of the shaft power of ICE is improved. A double-layer optimization method considering the long and short-term benefits is proposed based on the system, fully improving the system economy in design and operation. The case study shows that the CCHP system reduces the annual cost by 40.37% and the CO2 emission by 88.93% compared with the separate production system. Compared with the non-shaft power distribution system, the maximum daily operation cost is saved by 557.11CNY. Compared with the hourly optimization method, the proposed optimization method based on total daily benefit reduces the annual cost by 7.73% and CO2 emission by 35.87%, and the utilization rate of the energy storage device is higher.
