Energy Sources Selection for Industrial Enterprise Combined Power Supply System

Abstract

The paper proposes an approach for optimal structure and characteristics selection of energy sources for the combined power supply system of industrial enterprise, taking into account the profile of its demand on various energy resources types. The approach is based on the simulation of optimal parameters for combined power supply system elements operation, which functions in the energy hub mode. The estimation of economic efficiency for various variants of the system structure, with the best option selection is fulfilled. The proposed approach helps to make optimal decisions on the energy sources selection for own supply system during the design process and further modernization. Practical implementation of combined power systems will reduce industrial energy intensity in terms of rising prices on traditional energy resources.
