The molten salt solar power tower station equipped with thermal energy storage can effectively compensate for the instability and periodic fluctuation of solar energy, and a reasonable operation control strategy is essential for its peak-regulating operation mode.
Can solar power be used as a peak shaving power station?
Solar power generation with thermal energy storage (TES) can be decoupled from the power grid, which makes the power station itself flexible, and hence, can be endowed with the role of a peak shaving power station to absorb more wind and PV power by the grid .
Can a concentrated solar power plant with an electric heater join peak regulation?
Therefore, a concentrated solar power (CSP) plant equipped with an electric heater (EH) is implemented to join the peak regulation, and the joint peak regulation strategy between thermal power units (TPUs) and a CSP plant is proposed. Firstly, the peak regulation principle of a CSP plant with EH is analyzed in detail.
Can energy storage capacity configuration planning be based on peak shaving and emergency frequency regulation?
It is necessary to analyze the planning problem of energy storage from multiple application scenarios, such as peak shaving and emergency frequency regulation. This article proposes an energy storage capacity configuration planning method that considers both peak shaving and emergency frequency regulation scenarios.
A concentrating solar power (CSP) plant with a high-capacity thermal storage system (TES) is a utilization form of solar energy (Zhang et al., 2022). TES can store heat energy efficiently. The photoelectric decoupling characteristics provide the CSP plant with the capacity to control the output.
What are the advantages of molten salt solar power tower station?
The molten salt solar power tower station equipped with thermal energy storage can effectively compensate for the instability and periodic fluctuation of solar energy, and a reasonable operation control strategy is essential for its peak-regulating operation mode.
How to improve peak regulation capability of CSP plant?
The peak regulation ability of the CSP plant is limited by illumination conditions and TES capacity in the conversion process of light-heat-electricity. To further improve the peak regulation capability, the integration of the CSP plant with EH is proposed to actively join the power system operation.
