Reunderstanding of air conditioning system from perspective of new power system

The construction of a new power system with new energy as the main body is the key to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality. The construction of this new system requires the synergistic interaction of “source, storage, network and load”. Air conditioning system is an important energy use load on the end user side such as buildings. What new tasks for the air conditioning system should be undertaken in the construction of new power system? What are the new requirements of the new power system for the air conditioning system? What role can the air conditioning system play? These questions need to be answered. Therefore, from the perspective of the new power system, this paper discusses the new demands, new tasks to be undertaken and the role that the air conditioning system can play. The air conditioning system should pay attention to the flexible energy use role it can play on the basis of realizing the transformation of each link of its own “source, storage and load”, and become a friendly load user in the new power system. This study will provide useful exploration and reference for further understanding of the changes and functions of air conditioning system in the new power system.
