Abstract

The application of integrated energy systems (IES) in urban areas is gradually increasing, yet the constraint of limited building space poses a significant challenge to effective system planning. In this paper, to address the issue of area limitation from the perspective of improving solar energy utilization. A novel IES utilizing solar spectral beam splitting (SBS) for hydrogen production is proposed, which introduces SBS technology to make full use of the sun’s full-spectrum energy. Furthermore, the incorporation of photocatalytic hydrogen production introduces an innovative approach to meet the hydrogen needs of hydrogen refuelling stations, facilitating highly efficient co-generation of cooling, heating, electricity, and hydrogen supply. To determine the optimal system configuration, a comparison is made with a stand-alone solar system using a honey badger-simulated annealing optimization algorithm. The results show that the SBS-IES achieves a solar energy utilization rate of 37.72% and reduces equipment footprint by 20.48%. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis is performed to analyse the impact of changes in floor space on the system. This innovative system is suitable for small-scale IES and serves as an efficient solution for urban energy systems.
