Abstract

This paper proposes a method based on interval linear robust optimization to address the potential impacts of multiple uncertainties on the operational security of Regional Integrated Energy Systems (RIESs). The model considers the uncertainty in user loads and renewable energy outputs and determines the value ranges of related parameters through statistical analysis to characterize the boundaries of these uncertainties. To transform the stochastic disturbances into a solvable problem, the model introduces energy balance constraints under the worst-case scenario, ensuring that the system remains feasible under extreme conditions. The research framework integrates Nash bargaining theory, demand response mechanisms, and tiered carbon trading policies, constructing a cooperative game model for RIESs to minimize the overall operation cost of the alliance while providing a reasonable revenue distribution scheme. This approach aims to achieve fairness and sustainability in regional cooperation. Simulation results show that the method can effectively reduce the collaborative operation cost and improve the fairness of revenue distribution. To address potential issues of information misreporting and dishonesty in real-world scenarios, the model introduces an adjustable fraud factor in the revenue distribution process to characterize the strategy deviations of participants. Even under potential fraud risks, the mechanism can maintain an optimal revenue structure and lead the participants toward a stable fraud equilibrium, thereby enhancing the robustness and reliability of the overall collaboration.
