Data underlying the publication "The potential for electrifying industrial utility systems in existing chemical plants"

This repository contains the code and data used to generate the results published in the research paper "The potential for electrifying industrial utility systems in existing chemical plants" (doi: 10.1016/j.apenergy.2025.125988).The aim of the research was a) to understand how the electrification of utility systems could look under different combinations of fluctuating electricity, natural gas and CO2 emission allowance prices, and b) to examine if, and to what extent, cost-optimal systems lead to CO2 emission reductions while delivering constant utilities.Five existing chemical processes from an ethylene value chain in the Port of Rotterdam were used as case studies.This repository contains the following documents:Readme fileelectricity price input dataHeat and power demand input dataModel codeOutput data (results)<br>

本仓库包含用于复现研究论文《现有化工厂工业公用系统电气化潜力》（DOI: 10.1016/j.apenergy.2025.125988）所发表结果的代码与数据集。本研究的核心目标分为两点：其一，探究在电力、天然气与二氧化碳（CO2）排放配额价格波动的不同组合情境下，工业公用系统电气化将呈现何种形态；其二，验证在保障稳定公用工程供给的前提下，成本最优的系统能否实现二氧化碳减排，以及减排的具体幅度。本研究以鹿特丹港乙烯产业链中的5个现有化工流程作为案例研究对象。本仓库包含以下资料：
- Readme文件
