Abstract
The energy system in Europe changes towards a smart energy system with
interconnection of heat, power and gas networks, increasing the flexibility and
efficiency. Combined heat and power units play an important role in such systems, since
they have a high total efficiency and enable the interconnection between the networks.
Yet, control concepts are needed to ensure an optimal operation planning of available
capacities. The resulting unit commitment problem can be approached with
mixed-integer linear programming. This paper presents a generic modelling method of
coupled and decoupled combined heat and power units with mixed-integer linear
programming. Furthermore, operation data of two steam turbine types are compared with
the model performance to demonstrate the feasibility of this modelling approach. Finally,
a model of a combined cycle is presented, derived from the presented method.
