  4. Abstract:
  5. Reinforcing the correlation between Gas and Electricity Systems (G&ESs) susceptible to diverse factors ranging from anthropogenic climate change to the advent of new conversion/generation technologies has remarkably brought into focus the co-expansion of G&ESs using a new concept so-called Energy Hub (EH) as well as the potential of storage systems. To assess the effectiveness of EH approach and the role of storages in the coordinated plans of G&ES, this study proposes a comprehensive EH-based planning model for co-expansion of G&ES supply chains with respect to the role of Gas Storage Systems (GSSs). As a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problem, the model is applied to a real large-scale case study, i.e., the Iranian G&ES, and is solved via GAMS package. Simulation results reveal that incorporation of the interactions existing between G&ESs into their planning problems in the framework of an EH can reach more exible, realistic, and optimal expansion plans than their traditional integrated expansion planning methods. Furthermore, findings indicate that the involvement capacities of GSSs provide an opportunity for optimal matching of demand with supply by increasing the productivity of the gas pipelines, thus allowing technically and economically sensible longterm management of gas supply systems. © 2022 Sharif University of Technology.
