This supports utility-scale energy storage plants for power peak load management by offering cost reductions to power grid companies through T&D tariffs, renewable energy development funds (i.e., 0.019 yuan/kWh), and miscellaneous expenses.
The large-scale development of energy storage technologies will address China’s flexibility challenge in the power grid, enabling the high penetration of renewable sources. This article intends to fill the existing research gap in energy storage technologies through the lens of policy and finance.
Energy storage can affect investment in power generation by reducing the need for peaker plants and transmission and distribution upgrades, thereby lowering the overall cost of electricity generation and delivery.
Replace natural gas peakers with energy storage for peak demand management: The power sector has a significant opportunity to replace fossil-fuel peaker plants with ESSs to enhance flexibility and improve system performance.
To accommodate new energy sources and technologies, we need to upgrade the grid. This includes deploying grid-enhancing technologies and unlocking the potential of demand response and energy storage through digitalisation. Grids need to both operate in new ways and leverage the benefits of distributed resources, such as rooftop solar.
Grids have been delivering power to households, businesses and industry for over 100 years. The backbone of today’s electricity systems, grids are set to become increasingly important as clean energy transitions progress, but they currently receive too little attention.
