Abstract

This paper takes the regional energy internet as the research object, and combines the power system, primary energy system, transportation system, and thermal energy system to give the system boundary. First, the mathematical decomposition method and the logical integration method were combined to decompose the total low-carbon capability into seven single low-carbon capabilities. On the basis of the mechanism of carbon emission reduction, a comprehensive calculation model for CO 2 emissions reduction of the energy internet was then established. Finally, taking the Yanqing Energy Internet Demonstration Zone in China as an example, it was calculated that the model could reduce CO 2 emissions by 14,093.19 tons in 2025. The results show that the methods adopted in this paper avoided the overlap calculation reasonably well; the comprehensive calculation model of CO 2 emissions reduction has strong versatility, and can quantitatively calculate the carbon emission reduction amount for any completed or planned energy internet. Among the seven low-carbon capabilities, “replacement of gasoline with electricity” had the highest contribution rate, with a value of 42.62%, followed by “renewable energy substitution” (37.13%). The innovations in this paper include: (1) The problem of reasonable splitting of the overlapping parts in carbon emission reduction calculations being solved. (2) The first comprehensive calculation model of CO 2 emission reduction on the energy internet being established. (3) The contribution of the seven low-carbon capabilities of the energy internet to total emissions reduction being clarified.
