Abstract
- • A multi-objective model is proposed, which contains both the cost and carbon emission objectives. The sizing of the grid-connected converter is included. The carbon emission of the power from the grid is considered. The model can comprehensively describe the requirements of LVDC systems in the economy and environmental protection. • This paper considers the effect of EVs on the sizing of LVDC systems. Both the charging and discharging of EVs are fully used to reach better sizing and operation for the system. • A minimum fuzzy carbon emission method (MFCEM) is given to transform the multi-objective into a single objective. Compared with the linear weighting method, MFCEM is a useful method for finding a point on the Pareto front that balances cost and carbon emissions. Grid-connected low-voltage direct current (LVDC) systems offer a promising solution for achieving low-carbon buildings. However, a new challenge arises in sizing grid-connected LVDC systems, which is to fully utilize distributed renewable energy, energy storage, and load demand response to minimize both the economy and carbon emissions. To address this gap, this paper studies the sizing of grid-connected LVDC systems, considering the grid-connected converter, photovoltaic (PV), battery, and demand response of electric vehicles (EVs). Firstly, two objective functions are proposed, including the economy and carbon emissions. Secondly, constraints for sizing and operation are presented, with particular consideration given to the discharging of EVs and the corresponding cost of cycle-life loss. Finally, a minimum fuzzy carbon emission method (MFCEM) is proposed to solve the model, which can adaptively and objectively transform the multi-objective into a single objective. According to the case study, the proposed model comprehensively considers the cost and carbon emissions of grid-connected LVDC systems, and its feasibility and validity are verified. Compared with the linear weighting method, MFCEM is a useful method for finding a point on the Pareto front that balances cost and carbon emissions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
