Research plan on the current status of energy storage air conditioning industry

How can compressed air energy storage improve the stability of China's power grid?

The intermittent nature of renewable energy poses challenges to the stability of the existing power grid. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) that stores energy in the form of high-pressure air has the potential to deal with the unstable supply of renewable energy at large scale in China.

Does energy storage play a role in HVAC demand response?

In response to HVAC demand response event, TES plays the role of active energy storage. The above-mentioned common demand response strategies are still widely adopted. Cui et al. (Cui et al., 2015) found that indoor comfort could be controlled in different indoor temperatures reset strategies by adding a small energy storage device to a DR event.

Is energy storage a precondition for large-scale integration and consumption?

So to speak, energy storage is the precondition of large-scale integration and consumption of RES. However, China's energy storage industry is at the exploration stage and far from commercialization. This restricts the development of RES to certain extent. For this reason, this paper will concentrate on China's energy storage industry.

What is a thermal energy storage air-conditioning system?

Building envelope composition and heat transfer coefficient. This thermal energy storage air-conditioning system is mainly composed of an air source heat pump (ASHP), an energy storage tank, a circulating water pump, an air handle unit (AHU), and a variable air volume box (VAV box), fan coils and control system.

Can a small compressed air energy storage system integrate with a renewable power plant?

Assessment of design and operating parameters for a small compressed air energy storage system integrated with a stand-alone renewable power plant. Journal of Energy Storage 4, 135-144. energy storage technology cost and performance asse ssment. Energy, 2020. (2019). Inter-seasonal compressed-air energy storage using saline aquifers.

What is an Enn model for a thermal energy storage air-conditioning system?

An ENN model is developed for a thermal energy storage air-conditioning system. Both load forecasting and TES prediction is established. A demand response is implemented by field test based on the ENN model. Maximum energy reduction without comprising occupants comfort level is achieved.
