User-side energy storage incentive policy

What are China's energy storage incentive policies?

China's energy storage incentive policies are imperfect, and there are problems such as insufficient local policy implementation and lack of long-term mechanisms . Since the frequency and magnitude of future policy adjustments are not specified, it is impossible for energy storage technology investors to make appropriate investment decisions.

Are energy storage subsidy policies uncertain?

Subsidy policies for energy storage technologies are adjusted according to changes in market competition, technological progress, and other factors; thus, energy storage subsidy policies are uncertain. In this section, the investment decision of energy storage technology with different investment strategies under an uncertain policy is studied.

What is user-side energy storage?

1. Introduction User-side energy storage mainly refers to the application of electrochemical energy storage systems by industrial, commercial, residential, or independent powerplant customers (which in convenience we call "firms").

Do deterministic and uncertain policies affect energy storage technology investment?

To compare deterministic and uncertain policies' incentive effect on energy storage technology investment, this study selects the average peak and off-peak power price difference for energy storage participation in peak regulation auxiliary services in some Chinese provinces as a reference standard in this study.

Do policy adjustments affect energy storage technology investments?

The findings of this study are as follows: 1) The frequency of policy adjustments and the magnitude of subsidy adjustments can both influence energy storage technology investments, but the magnitude of subsidy adjustments is more significant.

Is there a real option model for energy storage sequential investment decision?

Propose a real options model for energy storage sequential investment decision. Policy adjustment frequency and subsidy adjustment magnitude are considered. Technological innovation level can offset adverse effects of policy uncertainty. Current investment in energy storage technology without high economics in China.
