The revenue of wind-storage system is composed of wind generation revenue, energy storage income and its cost. With the TOU price, the revenue of the wind-storage system is determined by the total generated electricity and energy storage performance.
The optimal storage capacity is 38MWh when the charging and discharging efficiencies are 95%, the energy storage cost is 150 $/kWh. The total annual income is calculated as 13.23 million US dollars from the wind-storage coupled system.
The annual revenue of the wind-storage coupled system is 12.78 million dollars which is the income of wind generation only sold to the grid or customer. With the decrease of energy storage plant cost and the increase of lifetime, the best storage capacity and the corresponding annual income of wind-storage coupled system increase.
When the energy storage system lifetime is of 10 years, and the cost is equal to or more than 375 $/kWh, the optimization configuration capacity is 0 MWh, which means no energy storage installation. The annual revenue of the simulated wind-storage system is 12.78 million dollars, which is purely from the sale of wind generation.
The integrated system can produce additional revenue compared with wind-only generation. The challenge is how much the optimal capacity of energy storage system should be installed for a renewable generation. Electricity price arbitrage was considered as an effective way to generate benefits when connecting to wind generation and grid.
The economic performance by integrating energy storage technologies into wind generation has to be analyzed for commercial development . One solution is to implement the electricity price arbitrage strategy. The real-time pricing (RTP) varies in the market throughout a single day due to the different patterns of supply and demand.
