Abstract: Contemporary industrial parks are challenged by the growing concerns about high cost and low efficiency of energy supply. Moreover, in the case of uncertain supply/demand, how to mobilize delay-tolerant elastic loads and compensate real-time inelastic loads to match multi-energy generation/storage and minimize energy cost is a key issue. Since energy management is hardly to be implemented offline without knowing statistical information of random variables, this paper presents a systematic online energy cost minimization framework to fulfill the complementary utilization of multi-energy with time-varying generation, demand and price. Specifically to achieve charging/discharging constraints due to storage and short-term energy balancing, a fast distributed algorithm based on stochastic gradient with two-timescale implementation is proposed to ensure online implementation. To reduce the peak loads, an incentive mechanism is implemented by estimating users’ willingness to shift. Analytical results on parameter setting are also given to guarantee feasibility and optimality of the proposed design. Numerical results show that when the bid–ask spread of electricity is small enough, the proposed algorithm can achieve the close-to-optimal cost asymptotically.
