Integrating energy storage within power system models offers the potential to enhance operational cost-effectiveness, scheduling efficiency, environmental outcomes, and the integration of renewable energy sources.
It is imperative to acknowledge the pivotal role of energy storage in shaping the future of power systems. Energy storage technologies have gained significant traction owing to their potential to enhance flexibility, reliability, and efficiency within the power sector.
In addition, by leveraging the scaling benefits of power stations, the investment cost per unit of energy storage can be reduced to a value lower than that of the user's investment for the distributed energy storage system, thereby reducing the total construction cost of energy storage power stations and shortening the investment payback period.
Concurrently, the energy storage system can be discharged at the peak of power consumption, thereby reducing the demand for peak power supply from the power grid, which in turn reduces the required capacity of the distribution transformer; thus, the investment cost for the transformer is minimized.
Over the past decade, the growth of new power plants has become a trend, with new energy stations growing particularly fast. In order to solve the problem of electricity consumption, the development of
