Driven by the “double carbon” strategy goal, building a new power system with new energy as the main body become the core task of energy transformation. The deep integration and collaborative optimization of electricity, hydrogen, and carbon as key elements are the inevitable path to improve the efficiency, flexibility, andliness of the energy system, and are of vital importance to achieve high proportion of new energy consumption and deep decarbonization of the system. At present, big data, artificial, digital twin, and block chain and other digital intelligence technologies are pushing the energy field towards a new stage of intelligence. The application of digital intelligence technology to penetrate the planning, and transaction of the electricity-hydrogen-carbon system has become the key breakthrough to solve the problem of new energy consumption, reduce the carbon intensity, cultivate the hydrogen energy market and a modern energy system.
