Nov 10, 2024 · Considering the high investment cost of the energy storage system, it is proposed that the shared energy storage will participate in the operation mode of the multi-virtual power
In addition, by leveraging the scaling benefits of power stations, the investment cost per unit of energy storage can be reduced to a value lower than that of the user’s investment for the distributed energy storage system, thereby reducing the total construction cost of energy storage power stations and shortening the investment payback period.
During the three time periods of 03:00–08:00, 15:00–17:00, and 21:00–24:00, the loads are supplied by the renewable energy, and the excess renewable energy is stored in the FESPS or/and transferred to the other buses. Table 1. Energy storage power station.
When the grid price is in the valley period, such as 15:00–18:00, the energy storage system chooses not to discharge regardless of the power shortage. Thereafter, the energy storage system initiates the discharging mechanism when the grid price is in the peak period starting period of 18:00.
In this mode, the power flow can be regulated by the energy storage or non-fault side power grid through the FESPS to ensure uninterrupted power supply. In addition, the energy storage and non-fault side power grid could jointly realize uninterrupted power supply for the load.
For power grid enterprises, multi-point centralized medium and large-scale energy storage stations will be conducive to the reinforcement of the distribution network and the sustainable consumption of renewable energy.
Concurrently, the energy storage system can be discharged at the peak of power consumption, thereby reducing the demand for peak power supply from the power grid, which in turn reduces the required capacity of the distribution transformer; thus, the investment cost for the transformer is minimized.
