Abstract: In this study, the impact of the coupling matching mechanism between the systems and the users on the energy-saving characteristics of the systems was analyzed based on a universal representation and computation method to identify the energy saving potential of the systems. The physical model was detailed derived for the relationship between the load supply and user demands under different capacity design modes and operation strategies to construct a universal coupling matching diagram, and the impact of the coupling matching parameters (operational energy efficiency, load matching degree, etc) on system integration and operation in different energy use scenarios was quantitative analyzed to illustrate the inherent mechanism of energy saving characteristics. In addition, the coupling mechanism between the systems and the users from a global perspective was reconstructed, and a coupling method of capacity design factor and dual source regulation was proposed to realize the collaborative integration of centralized energy supply systems, combined cooling, heating, and power systems and load demands, as well as the active regulation of the internal cascade utilization of the systems, so as to improve the energy saving potential of the systems under all operating conditions. Finally, a case analysis and method verification were conducted using typical summer days at Kunming hotel as an example. The results show that the coupling matching relationship is the internal mechanism that affects the energy saving of the systems, and the average energy saving rate of the whole day can be increased by 7.45 % through collaborative integration and active regulation.
