Decentralized Operations of Decarbonized Chemical Plants with Renewable-driven Transmission Systems (opens in new tab)

Electrification of ethane cracking offers a promising pathway to industrial decarbonization, provided that the electricity is sourced from renewable energy. However, integrating electrified chemical plant microgrids with a decarbonized power grid requires joint operations planning between Independent System Operators and chemical plants, which is hindered by the highly confidential nature of plant operational data. In this paper, we propose a pr...
