Original Abstract

Process integration (PI) is a sub-area within the chemical engineering discipline that was established in the 1970s. It focuses on the development and use of tools for the holistic design of chemical processes; emphasis is placed on the system-level interdependencies among process units. More recently, PI tools have been applied to renewable energy planning due to mounting concerns about climate change. This article reviews recent developments in PI tools for renewable energy planning, covering both pinch analysis and mathematical programming, and discusses promising prospects for future research. In particular, the role of artificial intelligence in enabling data-driven energy planning with PI is discussed as a priority topic.
