Abstract

The integrated energy system (IES) is a multi-source

heterogeneous

and strongly coupled system that covers fossil fuels

electricity

natural gas

hydrogen energy

and renewable energy. Traditional performance evaluation indicators are no longer applicable to the overall and local performance evaluation of IES

and there is an urgent need for a new performance characterization parameter. In IES

the introduction of the exergoeconomic cost coefficient has fundamentally changed the perspective of energy utilization evaluation and plays an important guiding role in the construction of high-efficiency and low-carbon IES in the future. Firstly

based on the origin and development of exergoeconomics

the basic development context of exergoeconomics and its application trend in IES were introduced. Secondly

the concept of the equipment exergoeconomic cost coefficient was proposed

and its characteristics and applicability when applied to IES were analyzed. Finally

the integrated application scenarios of exergoeconomics in IES were analyzed

and its guiding role in key technologies of IES

such as configuration optimization

real-time dispatching

and heterogeneous energy pricing

was presented. Results show that as a characterization for measuring the comprehensive energy utilization level of IES

exergoeconomic evaluation indicators will surely play an important guiding role in the construction

operation

and maintenance of IES.
