Abstract

Building structures themselves are one of the key areas of urban energy consumption, therefore, are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. With this understood, the carbon trading market is gradually expanding to the building sector to control greenhouse gas emissions. Hence, to balance the interests of the environment and the building users, this paper proposes an optimal operation scheme for the photovoltaic, energy storage system, and flexible building power system (PEFB), considering the combined benefit of building. Based on the model of conventional photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage system (ESS), the mathematical optimization model of the system is proposed by taking the combined benefit of the building to the economy, society, and environment as the optimization objective, taking the near-zero energy consumption and carbon emission limitation of the building as the main constraints. The optimized operation strategy in this paper can give optimal results by making a trade-off between the users’ costs and the combined benefits of the building. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed methods are verified by simulated experiments.
