A two-stage robust optimization (RO) method for buildings' space heating loads (SHLs) in an
integrated community energy system (ICES) is proposed. At the first stage, a bi-level …

Environmental concerns and the Paris agreements have prompted intensive efforts towards
greener and more sustainable transportation. Persistent expansion of electric vehicles (EV) …

This paper proposes a stochastic and distributed optimal energy management approach for
active distribution networks (ADNs) within office buildings. The proposed approach aims at …

With the growing percentage of the intermittent renewable power generation, the energy
system is under increasing pressure in balancing the supply and the demand. As a major …

Distributed power sources and diversified loads flexibly and controllably interact in the active
distribution network with symmetrical characteristics, and their spatial-temporal …

This guest editorial summarizes the topics and the papers selected for the Special Issue on
Integrated Local Energy Systems (iLES). In the 35 papers approved for publication after the …

This paper addressed the optimal operation of the microgrids (MGs) containing both the
electrical and thermal loads. Combined Heat and Power (CHP) units, boilers, wind turbines …

Building photovoltaic (PV) power generation is intermittent, volatile, random, and
uncontrollable; thus, the use of solar grid-connected power generation can lead to a series …

Electric car-sharing systems have attracted large attention in recent years as a new business
model for achieving both economic and environmental benefits in urban areas. Among …

In the deregulated energy market environment, small-scale peer-to-peer (P2P) energy
trading can increase the distributed photovoltaic power generation consumption and …
