In order to build a new power system with a gradually increasing proportion of new energy, it is necessary to vigorously promote “new energy + energy storage”, support the rational allocation of energy storage systems for distributed new energy, and actively develop the “Source-Network-Load-Storage” Integrated Operation and multi-energy complementarity.
The construction of a new type of power system requires the exploration of the collaborative control potential of source-grid-load-storage. To meet the demands
The power grid side connects the source and load ends to play the role of power transmission and distribution; The energy storage side obtains benefits by providing services such as peak cutting and valley filling, frequency, and amplitude modulation, etc.
The synergy optimization and dispatch control of “Source-Grid-Load-Storage” and realization of multi energy complementary are effective ways to help achieve the optimized regulation of the whole power system at different levels.
Energy storage is an important link for the grid to efficiently accept new energy, which can significantly improve the consumption of new energy electricity such as wind and photovoltaics by the power grid, ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the grid system, but energy storage is a high-cost resource.
In this case, the energy storage side connects the source and load ends, which needs to fully meet the demand for output storage on the power side and provide enough electricity to the load side, so a large enough energy storage capacity configuration is a must.
Meanwhile, the participation of energy storage resources plays a regulatory role, and friendly interactions are formed among the source, grid, load, and storage. In Figure 8, the three types of energy storage time series complement each other and are in line with the multitype energy storage coordination mode described in Section 1.2.
