Shared energy storage may help break through the difficulties

Can a shared energy storage strategy address fossil fuel dependence?

Renewable energy development and advanced storage technologies are key to reducing fossil fuel dependence and enabling the green transition. This study proposes a shared energy storage strategy for renewable energy station clusters to address fossil fuel dependence and support the green energy transition.

What is shared energy storage?

Shared energy storage leverages temporal and spatial reuse, integrating the diverse demands of multiple participants and taking advantage of the complementary nature of these demands to achieve efficient utilization in conjunction with renewable energy. Shared energy storage can be divided into demand-driven and profit-driven models .

Does shared energy storage support the green energy transition?

This study proposes a shared energy storage strategy for renewable energy station clusters to address fossil fuel dependence and support the green energy transition. By leveraging the spatiotemporal complementarities of storage demands, the approach improves system performance and output tracking.

Why is shared storage important?

Consequently, from a long-term perspective, the shared storage model represents not only an effective means of addressing current challenges in the energy transition process but also a vital driving force propelling the future energy system toward a greener, more efficient, and sustainable development trajectory.

Can shared energy storage system improve user income?

A Shared energy storage system (SESS) has the potential in reducing investment costs, increasing the rate of renewable energy consumption, and facilitating users . In reference , the optimization algorithm of improving user income by optimizing the charging and discharging strategy of SESS is proposed.

Are shared energy resources better than private energy storage?

We demonstrate the advantages of using shared as opposed to private energy storage. Distributed Energy Resources have been playing an increasingly important role in smart grids. Distributed Energy Resources consist primarily of energy generation and storage systems utilized by individual households or shared among them as a community.
