Weichang energy storage power station

How to optimize pumped-storage power station operation?

Propose a novel optimization framework of pumped-storage power station operation. Optimize pumped-storage power station operation considering renewable energy inputs. GOA optimizes peak-shaving and valley-filling operation of pumped-storage power station. Promote synergies of hydropower output, power benefit, and CO 2 emission reduction.

Where is heimifeng pumped-storage power station located?

Study area Heimifeng (HMF) pumped-storage power station located in Hunan Province of China is the largest PSP station in this province (Fig. 2). The energies in the power grid of Hunan Province consist of thermal power, hydropower, pumped-storage power, wind power, photovoltaic power, and biomass power.

How can Goa improve pumped-storage power station operation?

Optimize pumped-storage power station operation considering renewable energy inputs. GOA optimizes peak-shaving and valley-filling operation of pumped-storage power station. Promote synergies of hydropower output, power benefit, and CO 2 emission reduction. Facilitate the development of PSP station systems and a low-carbon economy.

Does peak-shaving and valley-filling affect pumped-storage power output?

Optimizing peak-shaving and valley-filling (PS-VF) operation of a pumped-storage power (PSP) station has far-reaching influences on the synergies of hydropower output, power benefit, and carbon dioxide (CO 2) emission reduction. However, it is a great challenge, especially considering hydro-wind-photovoltaic-biomass power inputs.

Should Chinese power systems develop pumped storage systems?

The result shows the urgency of developing the PSPS in Chinese power systems that have given priority to thermal power, and the energy resources need the wide-range optimal allocation within the system. The development cycle of the pumped storage is long, and at least 8–10 years are needed from the planning to the completion.

What is the storage capacity of Gangnan hydropower station?

This PSPS uses Gangnan reservoir as the upper reservoir with the total storage capacity of 1.571×10 9 m 3, and uses the daily regulation pond in eastern Gangnan as the lower reservoir with the total storage capacity of 3.5×10 6 m 3. For the application of the pumped storage unit, Gangnan hydropower station owns the ability of load regulation.
