Photovoltaic energy storage for cement enterprises

Can distributed photovoltaic energy storage systems drive decarbonization efforts in China?

Distributed photovoltaic energy storage systems (DPVES) offer a proactive means of harnessing green energy to drive the decarbonization efforts of China's manufacturing sector. Capacity planning for these systems in manufacturing enterprises requires additional consideration such as carbon price and load management.

How does a solar energy storage system work?

The typical procedure involves initially configuring the capacity of the PV system based on meteorological conditions and calculating the generated power. Subsequently, the energy storage system is configured according to user energy consumption patterns, PV power generation, and time-of-use pricing rules.

Can load management strategies be improved after PV installation?

However, improvement in load management strategies remains, especially after the installation of PV. Further rationalized load adjustments can reduce the demand for ES systems. According to the triple-layer optimization model, the user's load can be adjusted based on the PV power generation and electricity prices.

What is the optimal dpves capacity configuration for enterprises?

Scenario 1 is the optimal DPVES capacity configuration for enterprises when the carbon trading price is 0. The cost of carbon emission is not considered. Scenario 2 is the optimal DPVES capacity configuration for enterprises when carbon cost is taken into account, with two sub-scenarios: low carbon price and high carbon price.

Can clinker concrete be made without fossil fuels?

Ambrosetti said that the facility will provide enough heat to produce “clinker” concrete without using fossil fuels. “Clinker is produced in a rotary kiln at temperatures nearing 1,500 C. Fossil fuels are typically used to heat the kiln and are responsible for approximately 40% of direct CO 2 emissions,” the company claims.
