Description
Summary:Nowadays, with the wide installation of distributed energy resources and independent energy storage systems, prosumers as a new type of electricity market entity have emerged. Since numerous prosumers can significantly impact the carbon emission of the power grid, this paper proposes an improved carbon emission flow method for the power grid with prosumers. This method can accurately clarify the detailed distribution of electrical carbon emission flow in power grids. First, based on the power flow, prosumers’ impacts on the electrical carbon emission are quantified from three aspects that include the carbon emission sources, the network flow, and the indirect carbon emission individuals. Then, an improved power carbon emission flow model is proposed, in which the complex carbon emission intensity of prosumers is derived emphatically. Finally, case studies based on the IEEE 30-bus system verify the feasibility of the proposed method. This method provides a measurement basis for further research considering electrical carbon emissions. •Analyzing prosumers’ impacts on the CEF by direct emission source, network flow, and indirect emission individual.•Proposing an improved CEF model to measure the carbon emissions of the demand side, especially for prosumers.•Quantifying the complex CEI of prosumers with multiple DERs by combining the GCEI of DERs and historical CEF information.
