Popis: This paper develops a risk-averse-based framework for optimizing the operation of an integrated power, gas, and traffic (PGT) network with an application to a typical PGT network in downtown Edmonton, the forefront of Canada’s transition to electric vehicles and sustainable urban travel options. The developed non-probabilistic framework provides decision-makers with various secure options to avoid worst-case scenarios and promote social and environmental benefits. The integration of different energy systems allows operators to pursue optimal strategies in critical situations, such as facility outages, maintaining the system within a secure operational range without resorting to expensive workarounds. The proposed algorithm and integrated structure can select optimal travel routes to minimize gas-emission effects and locate charging options to reduce electric vehicle users’ travel time. It can mitigate challenges posed by distributed generator outages and roadway closures. The numerical results from implementing the framework on different case studies and the solar-based PGT network of Edmonton indicate its feasibility and effectiveness.
