Analysis of the profit model of power station energy storage
With the further promotion of new energy generation,the electrochemical energy storage has been given more attention to.Its business model and economy affect the sustainable and healthy development of the industry.This paper described the functions of the energy storage in the power system,and the profit model of the energy storage power station was provided.The two business models,peak valley price difference model and two-part electricity price model,are proposed according to the profit model.As an example,the two business models of the 10 MW/40 MWh liquid flow energy storage are discussed,and the internal rate of return and static electricity price are calculated respectively.Finally,the reasonable suggestions are advanced.The research can provide a reasonable basis for the energy storage price setting and promote the development of large-scale energy storage.
