Simulation experiments are conducted based on actual operational parameters, and the results demonstrate that the participation of energy storage in deep peak shaving can indeed effectively reduce system peak shaving costs. Additionally, the actual operational lifespan of energy storage is significantly lower than the floating lifespan. 1.
In particular, the paper focuses on the usage of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to accomplish this task. Results show that the proposed algorithm offers a simple, fast and effective way for peak-load shaving without heavy computational burdens often needed in other methods.
At the same time, this paper explores the mechanism of energy storage assisting the thermal power unit peak shifting to build an economic decision-making model and its optimal operation strategy that includes the factors of energy storage life loss and the cost of peak shifting of the thermal power unit.
It was found that, the higher the system load standby rate, the utilization of energy storage increases, and the lifetime decreases significantly. That is, the higher the system’s standby demand, the lower the number of times of charging and discharging for energy storage, and the faster the life depletion.
If the load peak is excessive, the ES will be abandoned, and the distribution network energy will be directly used for power supply. In the process of CES transaction, users must purchase the usage right from the CES supplier, generally in three ways: power flow, ES demand and package billing.
Planning the best allocation of ES can have a significant impact on the power system including minimizing power losses ( Vaiju et al., 2014 ). One of the effective ways to reduce distribution losses is load levelling or peak shaving. Peak shaving is a process of shaving the peak load and filling the load valley.
