FAQS about Thermal energy storage participates in deep peak regulation

Do thermal power units provide deep peak regulation?

Specifically, first, the flexibility requirement of renewable integration is quantified, and the operating characteristics of thermal power units providing deep peak regulation are modeled. On this basis, a capacity optimization for BES is proposed considering peak regulation characteristics of thermal power units.

How does peak regulation affect the operating state of thermal power units?

While at the phase of normal peak regulation, the operation cost increases as the power output increases. Therefore, for economic operation, the optimal operating state of thermal power units better be maintained near the lower limit of normal peak regulation. Fig. 3. Deep peak regulation cost of thermal units.

What is the optimal energy storage allocation model in a thermal power plant?

On this basis, an optimal energy storage allocation model in a thermal power plant is proposed, which aims to maximize the total economic profits obtained from peak regulation and renewable energy utilization in the system simultaneously, while considering the operational constraints of energy storage and generation units.

What is the difference between deep peak regulation and normal peak regulation?

It can be seen that at the phase of deep peak regulation, as the output of units decreases, the cost of thermal power unit continues to increase, which is due to the increased cost of oil input and equipment wear cost. While at the phase of normal peak regulation, the operation cost increases as the power output increases.

Is there a trade-off between energy storage and peak regulation?

In the meantime, the trade-off between deploying energy storage and leveraging the deep peak regulation capacity of existing thermal generators remains to be explored.

Do I need to charge the energy storage system for peak shaving?

The dispatching department calls it for free. When the output of thermal power unit is between (1 − k) Pthe and 0.5 Pthe, the thermal power unit has the ability for peak shaving. At this time, there is no need to charge the energy storage system for peak shaving. To avoid deep discharge in energy storage system, SOCmin is set to 20%.
