Accelerate the development of ultra-high voltage energy storage technology

What is energy storage technology?

Energy storage technology can be used for a household emergency power management system or combined with PV power generation to adjust output power during the periods of high electricity charge and high power consumption, secure emergency power and reduce consumption at peak time, and provide all necessary energy for households.

Why is electric storage technology important?

The research and development of electric storage technology has received great attention from the energy, transport, power, and communication industries of all countries, which quickly raised the technical and economic level of the technology.

How has China accelerated its energy storage development?

Specifically, as a developing country facing significant challenges such as environmental pollution and carbon emissions, China has accelerated its energy storage development and widely promoted the advancement of energy storage technologies . This has led to a narrowing gap between China, the US, and Europe.

What is ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission project?

In response, Ultra-High Voltage (UHV) transmission project has played a critical role in alleviating the energy shortage and haze problem in the eastern region by replacing “coal transportation on the ground” with “power transmission in the sky”.

Can energy storage technology be used in power systems?

In addition, the prospects for application and challenges of energy storage technology in power systems are analyzed to offer reference methods for realizing sustainable development of power grids, solving the contradiction of imbalance between power supply and demand, and improving reliability of power supply. 1.1. Basic concept

Why is China investing in ultra-high voltage power transmission projects?

The additional investment is primarily allocated to the construction of ultra-high voltage power transmission projects, strengthening the connection between county-level grids and the main grid and upgrading grid digitalization and intelligence, said the Beijing-based State-owned enterprise.
