Grid connection is the main source of profit for photovoltaics, but the amount of electricity that can be connected to the grid is limited, most newly built photovoltaic projects in China's provinces and cities have already achieved grid parity, and the future grid electricity prices may be even lower.
Without considering photovoltaic hydrogen production and energy storage, the main profit of photovoltaic power generation enterprises comes from grid connection, but it is limited because the characteristics of power generation and technological level. At this point, the maximization of value has not been achieved.
The cost advantage of solar PV allows for coupling with storage to generate cost-competitive and grid-compatible electricity. The combined systems potentially could supply 7.2 PWh of grid-compatible electricity in 2060 to meet 43.2% of the country’s electricity demand at a price below 2.5 US cents/kWh.
Finally, this study takes the data of a photovoltaic power station in Shanghai as an example for calculation, and the results show that photovoltaic grid connection is currently the main source of benefits, blindly increasing energy storage and hydrogen production is uneconomical.
When combined with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and grid loads, photovoltaic (PV) systems offer an efficient way of optimizing energy use, lowering electricity expenses, and improving grid resilience.
The electricity generated by photovoltaic power can be freely used without restrictions from policies and other factors. The electricity price for energy storage is always higher than feed-in tariffs. The maximum capacity or demand for energy storage is 250GW per year.
