The development of integrated energy systems is a significant way of improving energy efficiency and encouraging renewable energy absorption. However, the uncertainty of renewable energy and loads raise severe challenges to integrated energy system planning. Besides, under the low carbon background, the relationship between reducing carbon emissions and increasing the absorption of renewable energy is not investigated clearly in the planning of the park integrated energy system. Thus, this paper proposes a two-stage robust planning method considering low carbon and uncertainty. Firstly, the input-output model of energy conversion equipment in the park integrated energy system is described. Secondly, the objective function and constraints and are set up. Specifically, the carbon emission limits and renewable energy penetration target are introduced in the constraints. On this basis, the two-stage robust planning model with min-max-min structure is established, after transformation, column-and-constraint generation is used for the solution. Case study shows the ability and cost of the park integrated energy system to promote low-carbon emission reduction and renewable energy consumption. Moreover, it proves that although there is some synergy between the low carbon target and the renewable energy consumption target, maximum renewable energy consumption does not mean minimum carbon emissions, and vice versa, and in some cases increasing renewable energy penetration does not necessarily reduce carbon emissions.
