Abstract: Facing the growing problem of the curtailed wind during winter heating periods in the north of China, a flexible control method of wind power heating using the integrated energy system to consume the curtailed wind is proposed. Energy storage technology is introduced to coordinate regenerative electric boilers to match the fast fluctuation of wind power. The consuming model of the curtailed wind for the integrated energy system is established under three models through the study of the consumption mechanisms for the curtailed wind. The “wind power-energy storage system” and “wind power-regenerative electric boiler” are regarded as the game’s participants, and the maximum daily benefit of the system is regarded as the objective function, an economic evaluation model of the integrated energy system to consume the curtailed wind based on game theory is established. For comparative analysis, the model is respectively solved by particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the firefly algorithm (FA). The effectiveness of the model is verified by the actual operation data of a wind power heating demonstration project in China. The simulation results show that the most economy benefits of the overall system can be obtained by using energy storage systems to coordinate regenerative electric boilers, which provides a theoretical basis for the consumption of the curtailed wind.
