Research on Low-Carbon Economic Dispatch Strategy for Power Systems Considering Multiple Types of Flexible Loads Under Multi-Chain Blockchain Framework
Addressing the issues of single energy structure,high operating costs and poor environmental perfor-mance in traditional power system dispatch,this paper proposes a low-carbon economic dispatch strategy for power systems considering multiple types of flexible loads under a multi-chain blockchain framework.Firstly,le-veraging the characteristics of demand-side flexible loads that can be shifted,transferred and reduced,a novel power system framework incorporating flexible loads is established to achieve more flexible demand response.Secondly,utilizing multi-chain blockchain technology,the paper manages carbon quota(CEQ)trading data with refined precision to ensure data security.Furthermore,by comprehensively considering operating costs and CEQ trading costs,the paper constructs a low-cost model for economic dispatch in power systems aimed at achieving carbon reduction.Based on this,scenario-based comparative analysis evaluates the impact of flexible loads and CEQ trading factors on power system dispatch.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed dispatch strategy balances economic and environmental benefits,enhances CEQ trading efficiency,and provides theoretical and decision-making support for the low-carbon transformation of new power systems.
