Thermal power storage frequency and peak regulation

Thermal power storage frequency and peak regulation

Researchers have proposed various methods to absorb grid-connected power and frequency fluctuations generated by new energy generation, and utilizing existing thermal power units to participate in new energy consumption is one of the important links, however, when the thermal power unit is frequently involved in the frequency modulation of the power grid, the dense regulation signals will cause pressure oscillation of the thermal power unit and combustion instability, seriously affecting the safe and stable operation of the unit.

6 FAQs about [Thermal power storage frequency and peak regulation]

How does frequency regulation affect energy storage?

When the energy storage system must be charged under the condition of frequency regulation, the charge power absorbed by the energy storage system steadily decreases when the SOC is at a high boundary value, and it eventually cannot absorb the charge power when the SOC hits the critical value.

What is the optimal energy storage allocation model in a thermal power plant?

On this basis, an optimal energy storage allocation model in a thermal power plant is proposed, which aims to maximize the total economic profits obtained from peak regulation and renewable energy utilization in the system simultaneously, while considering the operational constraints of energy storage and generation units.

Is hybrid energy storage a primary frequency regulation control strategy?

At present, there have been many research results on hybrid energy storage participating in the primary frequency regulation control strategy of the power grid both domestically and internationally. Yang Ruohuan built a new superconducting magnetic energy storage and battery energy storage topology.

Can battery energy storage improve frequency modulation of thermal power units?

Li Cuiping et al. used a battery energy storage system to assist in the frequency modulation of thermal power units, significantly improving the frequency modulation effect, smoothing the unit output power and reducing unit wear.

How a thermal power unit coupling energy storage system works?

In this strategy, part of the power commands are assigned to the energy storage system through fuzzy control, so as to establish the primary frequency modulation scheduling module of the thermal power unit coupling energy storage system, which can ensure the power generation revenue of thermal power units.

What is the multi-timescale regulation capability of a power system?

The multi-timescale regulation capability of the power system (peak and frequency regulation, etc.) is supported by flexible resources, whose capacity requirements depend on renewable energy sources and load power uncertainty characteristics.
