Abstract
The microgrid operation is addressed in this article based on a multicarrier energy hub. Natural gas, electricity, heating, cooling, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and renewable energies are considered as the energy carriers. The designed microgrid optimizes and utilizes a wide range of resources at the same time including renewables, electrical storage, hybrid storage, heating-cooling storage, electric vehicles (EVs) charging station, power to gas unit, combined cooling-heating-power, and carbon capture-storage. The purpose is to reduce the environmental pollutions and operating costs. The resilience and flexibility of the energy hub is also improved. Vehicle to grid and fully-partial charge models are incorporated for EVs to improve the system resilience and supplying the critical loads following events. Different events are modeled to evaluate the system resilience. The model is expressed as a stochastic mixed integer linear programming problem. Both active and reactive powers are modeled. The microgrid is simulated under four different cases. The results show that the multitype energy storages reduce the annual cost of energy while the integrated charging station can decrease the load shedding.

Abstract
This paper presents a pool trading model within a local energy community considering home energy management systems (HEMSs) and other consumers. A transparent mechanism for market clearing is proposed to incentivise active prosumers to trade their surplus energy within a rule-based pool market in the local energy community. A price-based demand response program (PBDRP) is considered to increase the consumers' willingness to modify their consumption. The mathematical optimization problem is a standard mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem to allow for rapid assessment of the trading market for real energy communities which have a considerable number of consumers. This allows for novel energy trading strategies amongst different clients in the model and for the integration of a pool energy trading model at the level of the local energy community. The objective function of the energy community is to minimize the overall bills of all participants while fulfilling their demands. Two different scenarios have been evaluated, independent and integrated operation modes, to show the impacts of coordination amongst different end-users. Results show that through cooperation, end-users in the local energy community market can reduce the total electricity bill. This is shown in a 16.63% cost reduction in the independent operation and a 21.38% reduction in the integrated case. Revenues for active consumers under coordination increased compared to independent operation of the HEMS.

Abstract
The integrated power and natural gas system (IPGS) is a promising technique against extreme weather. In this letter, a valley-shaped resilience model is proposed to evaluate the performance of IPGSs under extreme weather and inter-energy assistances between the electric power sector and the natural gas sector. Furthermore, a quantification metrics framework for IPGS resilience evaluation is raised. Novel metrics are proposed, especially the distortion rate (Theta) and linepack effect (Delta t*) for quantifying coupling tightness and assistance from natural gas transient in resilience perspective respectively. Evaluation on different restoration strategies is conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed metrics framework.

Abstract
This article presents a novel mixed-integer nonlinear linear programming (MINLP) model to increase the photovoltaic (PV) hosting capacity in unbalanced three- phase electrical distribution systems. The problem considers the optimal operation of capacitor banks and network reconfiguration with radial and closed-loop operation. The objective function maximizes the PV hosting capacity of the system. A set of linearization strategies are employed to convert the presented MINLP model into a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem. By considering the MILP formulation, optimality is guaranteed by using off-the-shelf optimization solvers. Several tests are carried out using a 25-node unbalanced three-phase distribution system. When examining network reconfiguration with radial and closed-loop operation, the results demonstrate that the proposed formulation is effective in increasing the penetration of PV sources.

Abstract
The increasing penetration of renewable energy sources in areas with wholesale energy markets may have significant impacts on the prices of electricity within these markets. These renewable energy sources typically have low or zero marginal prices and thus can bid into energy markets at prices which might be below plants using other generating technologies. This work seeks to understand the impact of these zero marginal cost plants in the Iberian Energy Market. This work makes use of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to evaluate the impact of growing renewable energy generation on the market-clearing price. Real data from the Iberian Energy Market is chosen and used to train the ANN. The scenarios used for renewable energy generation are taken from the newly published national energy and climate plans for both Spain and Portugal. Results show that increasing penetration of renewable energy leads to significant reductions in the forecasted energy price, showing a price decrease of about 23 (sic)/MWh in 2030 compared to the baseline. Increasing solar PV generation has the largest effect on market prices.

Abstract
Hydrogen vehicle stations (HVSs) that convert electricity into hydrogen have appeared as a new arrival asset to the power system with the raising interest in hydrogen vehicles (HVs). In order to safely power these new assets, microgrids, including different flexible resources, are an ideal option. This paper presents an efficient MG scheduling in the presence of HVSs, renewable energy resources, energy storage systems (ESS) and demand response. This model also takes the uncertainties associated with electrical loads, renewables, and HVs into consideration. In order to create an MILP problem, linearized AC optimal power flow equations are considered. A 21-bus MG is examined by applying the proposed model to various case studies, thereby proving that the MG schedule meets the demand of HVs and electrical load. Employing DR programs can reduce operation costs and reduce the load during peak usage hours. Furthermore, the physical constraints of the network satisfy the security in operation. Finally, numerical analysis illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
