    Abstract
    The purpose of this study is to analyze the economic, welfare, and environmental effects of the policy of reforming energy subsidies in the industrial sector. The policy of reforming energy subsidies has been examined in the form of 6 scenarios based on the elimination of the current system of payment and redistribution of income among households and producers in certain proportions using a computable general equilibrium model. In the static model, economic variables include variables of production, price and net exports at the industry level and GDP variables, consumer price index, household consumption, government spending, investment, total imports and exports, prices and employment of...

    Abstract
    Presence of energy hubs in the future vision of energy networks creates a great opportunity for system planners and operators to move towards more efficient systems. The role of energy hubs as the intermediate in multi-carrier energy (MCE) systems calls for a generic framework to study the new upcoming technical as well as economical effects on the system performance. In response, this paper attempts to develop a general optimization and modeling framework for coupled power flow studies on different energy infrastructures. This, as a large-scale nonlinear problem, is approached through a robust optimization technique, i.e., multi-agent genetic algorithm (MAGA). The proposed procedure...
