Abstract
Large industrial sites commonly contain multiple production and utility systems. In practice, integrated optimization is often not possible because the necessary complete information cannot be exchanged between the systems. Often, industrial sites optimize the operation of production and utility systems sequentially without any feedback, which leads to suboptimal operation. In this paper, we propose a method to coordinate between production and utility systems in a multileader multi-follower Stackelberg game. The proposed method does not require complete information exchange. The only information exchanged in one feedback loop is the energy demand and demanddependent energy cost. In two case studies, the method reduces the total production cost by 7.6% and 3.4% compared to the common sequential optimization. These cost savings correspond to 84% and 88% of the potential cost savings by an integrated optimization. In summary, the proposed method reduces cost significantly, while only incomplete information is exchanged between production and utility systems.
