Abstract: Integrated energy systems (IESs) considering power-to-gas (PtG) technology are an encouraging approach to improve the efficiency, reliability, and elasticity of the system. As the evolution towards decarbonization is increasing, the unified coordination between IESs and PtG technology is also increasing. PtG technology is an option for long-term energy storage in the form of gas, but, compared to other technologies, it is economically expensive at the present time to optimize the technology. This article presents a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art research and of the developments regarding integrated energy systems considering PtG technology. This presented review emphasizes planning and economic analysis, including system integration enhancements focusing on optimization, conversion technologies, and energy storage to improve the operation and stability and to enhance the facilities for consumers. The role of a PtG system in generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption is discussed. By emphasizing planning, integration, and the role, this paper aims to guide researchers, scientists, engineers, and policy makers towards effective research and broad strategies that sustain an IES-PtG.
