On March 31, the second phase of the 100 MW/200 MWh energy storage station, a supporting project of the Ningxia Power’s East NingxiaComposite Photovoltaic Base Project under CHN Energy, was successfully connected to the grid. This marks the completion and operation of the largest grid-forming energy storage station in China.
This marks the completion and operation of the largest grid-forming energy storage station in China. The photo shows the energy storage station supporting the Ningdong Composite Photovoltaic Base Project. This energy storage station is one of the first batch of projects supporting the 100 GW large-scale wind and photovoltaic bases nationwide.
The pumped storage power station (PSPS) is a special power source that has flexible operation modes and multiple functions. With the rapid economic development in China, the energy demand and the peak-valley load difference of the power grid are continuing to increase.
The result shows the urgency of developing the PSPS in Chinese power systems that have given priority to thermal power, and the energy resources need the wide-range optimal allocation within the system. The development cycle of the pumped storage is long, and at least 8–10 years are needed from the planning to the completion.
8. Conclusion China has obtained great achievement in the PSPS exploitation in the past 40 years. The PSPS meets the load-regulation demand of regional power grids, coordinates with wind power, nuclear power and other new energy sources, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the smart grid that is developing in China.
It can be foreseen that from now on the PSPS exploitation in China will enter a new phase. Up to 2020, the total installed capacity of the PSPS will reach 70 GW. It will play a more significant role in the power source structure adjustment, and the secure and stable operation of the power grids.
