Reasonable regional integrated energy planning is crucial for the construction of a Near-Zero Carbon Emission Demonstration District (NCEDD). This paper proposes a three-step planning method for integrated energy planning to achieve NCEDD objectives. The Meishan International Near-Zero Carbon Emission Demonstration District (MINCEDD) is used as a case study to explain and analyze the planning method, and the planning results are compared with other districts. The planning scheme and method can serve as a reference for integrated energy planning in developed urban areas.
Reasonable regional integrated energy planning is an important prerequisite for the construction of a Near-Zero Carbon Emission Demonstration District (NCEDD). An integrated energy planning scheme that is based on a three-step planning method with the objective of achieving an NCEDD is proposed in this paper. First, the planning objectives should be determined. After that, the planning strategies should be established. Finally, the planning approaches should be proposed according to the previously determined objectives and strategies. A case study considering the integrated energy planning of the Meishan International Near-Zero Carbon Emission Demonstration District (MINCEDD) is investigated to explain the planning method. In addition, the planning results, which are indicated as indexes, are explained, analyzed, and compared to the ones of other districts. The indexes include a proportion of renewable energy to primary energy (73% by 2030 and 108% by 2050), a proportion of renewable power to total power consumption (98% by 2030 and 111% by 2050), and CO2 emission reduction rates (70% by 2030 and 100% by 2050) and are more advanced than other districts in China. This planning scheme and method can provide a reference for the integrated energy planning of NCEDDs in developed urban areas.
