An optimization capacity of energy storage system to a certain wind farm was presented, which was a significant value for the development of energy storage system to integrate into a wind farm. A high penetration of various renewable energy sources is an effective solution for the deep decarburization of electricity production [1, 2, 3].
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.
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 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.
When the energy storage plant lifetime is of 10 years, and the cost is equal to or less than 300 $/kWh, with the increased efficiencies of both charging and discharging processes, the installed storage capacity and the annual revenue of the wind-storage coupled system increase.
Different energy portfolios (PV, PV with government subsidies, PV with Wind generation) and capacity were investigated through an optimization algorithm to reduce the distributed generation lifecycle cost. The analysis showed that exploring wind power can realize cost-savings in locations where the average wind speed was above 4.8 m/s .
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide.
