Further research directions Due to the important application value of grid side energy storage power stations in power grid frequency regulation, voltage regulation, black start, accident emergency, and other aspects, attention needs to be paid to the different characteristics of energy storage when applied to the above different situations.
Due to factors such as high prices of energy storage devices and imperfect market models, China's grid side energy storage projects are currently in their early stages, with limited engineering applications and a lack of evaluation methods of the actual operational effectiveness of power stations from multiple perspectives.
For each typical application scenario, evaluation indicators reflecting energy storage characteristics will be proposed to form an evaluation system that can comprehensively evaluate the operation effects of various functions of energy storage power stations in the actual operation of the power grid.
Battery storage power stations are usually composed of batteries, power conversion systems (inverters), control systems and monitoring equipment. There are a variety of battery types used, including lithium-ion, lead-acid, flow cell batteries, and others, depending on factors such as energy density, cycle life, and cost.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.
For example, Station A has advantages over other power stations in terms of comprehensive efficiency and utilization coefficient, while it is relatively insufficient in terms of offline relative capacity, discharge relative capacity, power station energy storage loss rate, and average energy conversion efficiency.
