Benefits of energy storage in industrial parks

Can shared energy storage be used in industrial parks?

With the emergence of ESS sharing , shared energy storage (SES) in industrial parks has become the subject of much research. Sæther et al. developed a trading model with peer-to-peer (P2P) trading and SES coexisting for buildings with different consumption characteristics in industrial areas.

Why is energy storage system installation important?

Although energy storage system (ESS) installation is an effective means of addressing the uncertainty problem of RESs and load demand , , , , guaranteeing the stable and efficient operation of the industrial park's power system, cost inefficiency remains the main factor restricting ESS development .

What is the optimal ESS-sharing scheme in an industrial park?

In the industrial park environment, ESS sharing has multiple schemes that involve different ESS installation structures and energy-sharing methods. Therefore, this study determines the optimal ESS-sharing scheme in an industrial park through the construction of load optimization model and comparative analysis.

How much does electricity cost in an industrial park?

With the techno-economic parameters shown in Table 1, assuming a maximum load of 10 MW and no upper limit on equipment capacities, the average cost of electricity in the industrial park after optimization using the proposed model is 0.5783 (CNY/kWh), which is 23.09 % lower than using only grid electricity (0.7522 CNY/kWh).

Why are battery energy storage systems so popular?

Among the energy storage technologies, the growing appeal of battery energy storage systems (BESS) is driven by their cost-effectiveness, performance, and installation flexibility [, , ].

Are industrial parks a significant energy consumer in China?

As previously stated, industrial parks represent a significant energy consumer in China. There is a discernible correlation between the power demand load curves of the industrial park and the province.
