Since the community energy system topology is diverse, and the development of energy management and coordination control algorithms for control systems is still in the stage of personalized customization, the algorithms and the control system equipments are costly to test. With analyzing the design requirements of community energy network simulation and test platform (CENSTP), the design scheme of CENSTP based on DIgSILENT and OPC technology is proposed. The CENSTP considers two application scenarios: algorithm simulation and control system equipment testing, in which applies various control algorithm interfaces provided by DIgSILENT to build algorithm simulation framework and hardware-in-the-loop test framework based on hierarchically distributed information layer architecture. Finally, the validity of an energy management and coordinated control algorithm is verified through CENSTP based on a specific community energy system topology. The design scheme of the CENSTP is beneficial to simulate several complicated scenarios, and provides an experimental platform for the development and testing of advanced energy management and coordinated control algorithms and control system equipments.
