This paper proposes an intelligent method for the identification of potential customers for electricity substitution. This is developed on the basis of an original model, where a related indicator system of potential customers is constructed through exploratory analysis, improving the results. At the same time, ANOVA is used to screen the indicators and the XGBoost algorithm is employed to output the index importance score and identify likely electricity substitution customers. This method can accurately identify such customers, accelerate the fundamental transformation of energy development, and adapt to the new strategy of Energy Internet development.

Internet-based affiliate marketing programs have emerged as one of the fastest-growing methods for online retailers to acquire customers and increase sales by tapping into the power of independent web sites to reach a large, diverse audience of potential customers. However, while these programs have proven effective in increasing website traffic and sales, illegal or inappropriate activities on the part of affiliates could negatively impact a retailer’s brand in the eyes of customers. This study is an exploratory analysis of governance mechanisms (formal contracts, partner selection, incentives and monitoring) in one-to-many affiliate programs in Spain. Agency theory and transaction cost analysis provide the theoretical background. The conclusion is that there is a significant lack of transparency in the guidance and restrictions communicated to affiliates, and a lack of systematic monitoring of affiliate behavior, which increases the risk of opportunism or misconduct. General recommendations for managers of affiliate programs are considered.

With a large number of distributed generation (DG) and controllable load connected to the power grid under the background of energy Internet development, the security and stability of the grid are challenged. Power flow control has become a problem of the operation of the power grid. Power flow router (PFR) has become an important element of energy Internet. It is an effective way to realize the power flow control of active distribution network when abundant distributed resources are connected to the grid. In this paper, the steady-state and dynamic operation characteristics of PFR are studied, and the corresponding mathematical model is established. The effect of PFR on optimizing the power flow and improving the dynamic characteristics of distribution network is analysed by the 14-node distribution network case simulating.

At present, the zero-carbon goal has become the common choice of all the world. Driven by the zero-carbon goal, energy system in China will develop to be cleaner and cleaner. In this situation, Energy Internet has become the future development trend of the energy system. Based on the detailed analysis on the development history, the basic connotation and the key features of Energy Internet, an Energy Internet evaluation index system is introduced. This proposed indicator system evaluates Energy Internet from five dimensions, and all the indexes include the qualitative and the quantitative indicators, the process indicators and the result indicators, the technical indicators and the economic indicators. On this basis, an evaluation method is proposed based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process and the Delphi method. The proposed evaluation index system and the evaluation method can provide a good objective evaluation of the development of Energy Internet.

The Chinese government is going to “push ahead the revolution of energy production and consumption, and establish a clean, low-carbon, secure, and efficient energy system”, which points out a direction for the energy industry in the new era. Using the analytic hierarchy process of the system analysis method, we constructed an indicator system of the modern Chinese energy system, and by determining the weighting of each indicator, we obtained the composite index of the modern Chinese energy system, as well as four sub-indexes of clean, low-carbon, secure, and efficient. Then, we investigated policy changes and energy development characteristics of important periods, and performed historical trend analysis. Finally, we forecasted the composite index and four sub-indexes by 2050, and proposed an energy development path and policy suggestions to achieve a modern Chinese energy system as soon as possible.
