There are the transmission loss of the electric power network, the delay and loss of the heating network, the insufficient utilization of flexible resources such as energy storage in the integrated electric-heat system, which may lead to the imbalance of supply and demand and energy waste. In this paper, the coordinated dispatch of integrated electric-heat system (IEHS) considering the transmission characteristics of the electric power network and heating network, which is formulated as a convex quadratic program. The strong linkage of electric power and heat supplies can be decoupled to reduce wind power curtailment by exploiting the energy storage and regulation capabilities of the district heating network (DHN), storage batteries, electric boilers (EBs) and heat storage tanks (HSs). The energy storage system works according to the situation division strategy designed in this paper. This paper introduces the wind curtailment boundary power and optimizes dispatch based on the wind curtailment boundary power and unit output, which can make full use of the energy storage capacity and reduce the wind abandonment power. Since the electric power system (EPS) and the distribution heating system (DHS) are controlled separately by different operation organizations, IEHS is solved using double-λ iterative algorithm. The double-λ iterative algorithm, with guaranteed convergence for convex programs, can achieve a fully distributed solution for the IEHS and requires only a small amount boundary information exchange between the EPS and the DHS. At last, one integrated electric-heat system was studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method which achieves the effective solution in a moderate number of iterations. This system includes two 10-nodes heating system and one 14-nodes electric power system.
