Bidirectional coupling systems for electricity and natural gas composed of gas units and power-to-gas (P2G) facilities improve the interactions between different energy systems. In this paper, a combined optimization planning method for an electricity-natural gas coupling system with P2G was studied. Firstly, the characteristics of the component model of the electricity-natural gas coupling system were analyzed. The optimization planning model for the electricity-natural gas coupling system was established with the goal of minimizing the sum of the annual investment costs and the annual operation costs. Based on the established model, the construction statuses for different types of units, power lines, and pipelines and the output distribution values for gas units and P2G stations were optimized. Then, the immune algorithm was proposed to solve the optimization planning model. Finally, an electricity-natural gas coupling system composed of a seven-node natural gas system and a nine-node power system was taken as an example to verify the rationality and effectiveness of the model under different scenarios.

A proof-of-concept study is presented of a Power-to-Gas system that is located fully offshore. This paper analyses how such a system would perform if based at the depleted Kinsale Gas Field in the Celtic Sea Basin off the south coast of Ireland. An offshore wind farm is proposed as the power source for the system. Several conversion technologies are examined in detail in terms of resource efficiency, technological maturity, and platform area footprint, the aim being to ascertain their overall applicability to an offshore Power-to-Gas system. The technologies include proton exchange membrane electrolysers for electrolysis of water to release H2. Bipolar membrane electro-dialysis and electronic cation exchange module processes are also considered for the extraction of CO2 from seawater. These technologies provide the feedstock for the Sabatier process for the production of CH4 from H2 and CO2. Simulations of the end-to-end systems were carried out using Simulink, and it was found that the conversion of offshore wind power to hydrogen or methane is a technically feasible option. Hydrogen production is much closer to market viability than methane production, but production costs are too high and conversion efficiencies too low in both cases with present-day technology to be competitive with current wholesale natural gas prices.

Aiming at the problem of insufficient flexibility of the power system caused by large-scale wind power grid integration, a flexible economic dispatch model of the electricity-gas integrated system that considers power-to-gas and demand responses is proposed. First, it elaborates on the scheduling flexibility and demand response model. Secondly, the power system and the natural gas system are regarded as different stakeholders; with the goal of minimizing their respective operating costs, a two-tier distributed coordination optimization model of electricity and gas system is established. In order to achieve the coordination and optimization of the upper and lower systems, slack variables are introduced to describe the infeasible part of the power system scheduling results in the natural gas system and are used for interactive iterative solution of the model. The numerical results of the revised IEEE 30-node power system and 10-node natural gas system illustrate the effectiveness and necessity of the proposed model, as well as the superiority of comprehensively considering power-to-gas and demand response in improving the flexibility and economy of the power system.
