Capacity Configuration and Economic Evaluation of Energy Storage System for Grid Peak Load Shifting
With the gradual increase of peak-valley difference of grid load, many types of equipment of power generation, transmission and distribution should be added or retrofitted to meet the peak load demand for electricity. While the low loading rate of grid may lead to a lower asset utilization ratio of power equipment, which makes power planning and construction less economic. Energy storage technology can solve the problem of increase of peak-valley difference and low asset utilization ratio, however, the high cost of the energy storage system limits its large-scale applications at present. Considering the charge-discharge balance constraints and cycle life of energy storage system, the control strategy of energy storage technologies for grid peak load shifting is studied, and the mathematical model is established for the economic evaluation of investment in the energy storage system. Taking actual load data as examples, the capacity demands of energy storage system under different peaking degrees are simulated and analyzed. The economic issues of energy storage system investment are studied from the view of social benefits and investors respectively. Finally, the economic conditions of large-scale applications of energy storage system are proposed.
