Optimization and Control Technologies for Renewable-Dominated Hydrogen-Blended Integrated Gas-Electricity System: A Review

The growing coupling among electricity, gas, and hydrogen systems is driven by green hydrogen blending into existing natural gas pipelines, paving the way toward a renewable-dominated energy future. However, the integration poses significant challenges, particularly ensuring efficient and safe operation under varying hydrogen penetration and infrastructure adaptability. This paper reviews progress in optimization and control technologies for hydrogen-blended integrated gas-electricity system. First, key technologies and international demonstration projects are introduced to provide an overview of current developments. Besides, advances in gas-electricity system integration, including modeling, scheduling, planning and market design, are reviewed respectively. Then, the potential for cross-system fault propagation is highlighted, and practical methods for safety analysis and control are proposed. Finally, several possible research directions are introduced, aiming to ensure efficient renewable integration and reliable operation.
