Abstract To ensure frequency stability in power systems with high wind penetration, the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) is often used with the frequency fast response control (FFRC) to participate in frequency response. However, a certain output power suppression amount (OPSA) is generated during frequency support, resulting in the frequency modulation (FM) capability of DFIG not being fully utilised, and the system’s unbalanced power will be increased during speed recovery, resulting in a second frequency drop (SFD) in the system. Firstly, the frequency response characteristics of the power system with DFIG containing FFRC are analysed. Then, based… More >

Abstract Energy storage batteries can smooth the volatility of renewable energy sources. The operating conditions during power grid integration of renewable energy can affect the performance and failure risk of battery energy storage system (BESS). However, the current modeling of grid-connected BESS is overly simplistic, typically only considering state of charge (SOC) and power constraints. Detailed lithium (Li)-ion battery cell models are computationally intensive and impractical for real-time applications and may not be suitable for power grid operating conditions. Additionally, there is a lack of real-time batteries risk assessment frameworks. To address these issues, in this… More >

Abstract To mitigate the impact of wind power volatility on power system scheduling, this paper adopts the wind-storage combined unit to improve the dispatchability of wind energy. And a three-level optimal scheduling and power allocation strategy is proposed for the system containing the wind-storage combined unit. The strategy takes smoothing power output as the main objectives. The first level is the wind-storage joint scheduling, and the second and third levels carry out the unit combination optimization of thermal power and the power allocation of wind power cluster (WPC), respectively, according to the scheduling power of WPC and… More >

Abstract A robust scheduling optimization method for wind–fire storage system distribution based on the mixed carbon trading mechanism is proposed to improve the rationality of carbon emission quota allocation while reducing the instability of large-scale wind power access systems. A hybrid carbon trading mechanism that combines short-term and long-term carbon trading is constructed, and a fuzzy set based on Wasserstein measurement is proposed to address the uncertainty of wind power access. Moreover, a robust scheduling optimization method for wind–fire storage systems is formed. Results of the multi scenario comparative analysis of practical cases show that the More >

Abstract The source-sink matching optimization problem is one of the more important aspects of carbon capture and storage (CCS) system planning studies, and a large number of studies have been conducted using mathematical modeling to assess the feasibility of deployment in the planning region, thus providing important decision support. A framework of optimization system applicable to source-sink matching analysis was constructed based on the structural relationship between directly connected sources and sinks, taking into account multiple factors (transport characteristics, CO₂ injection rate and connection period, etc.), which can ensure the feasibility of CO₂ pipeline transportation operation and… More >

Abstract Metal Hydride (MH) is a promising hydrogen storage technique owing to its safety, availability, and high volumetric storage density. MH hydrogen storage reactor is the core component of MH hydrogen storage technology. However, the thermal effect of MH hydrogen storage reactor in the process of hydrogenation/dehydrogenation is significant, which requires an efficient heat management system for the reactor. Phase change materials (PCM) can be applied to MH hydrogen storage reactor, and have the advantages of simple structure. In this paper, representative PCM thermal management methods were summarized, and the distribution structure of the existing multi-layer… More >

Abstract Using liquid hydrogen as fuel is helpful to the aviation industry to achieve the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality. However, the liquid hydrogen storage tank will inevitably slosh during the use inhydrogen-powered aircraft, thus it is necessary to study the thermodynamic characteristics of liquid hydrogen storage tank during the sloshing process. In this paper, the thermodynamic behavior of liquid hydrogen storage tank under external excitation is studied by using Volume of Fluid(VOF) model and Lee model through numerical simulation methods. The changes of pressure and temperature in the process of tank sloshing under… More >

Abstract With the continuous expansion of the scale of renewable energy installation, the demand for energy storage has increased significantly. However, there are significant differences in the value of energy storage in different scenarios, and the phenomenon of diminishing marginal benefits of energy storage is becoming more apparent. Therefore, the multi-dimensional value evolution trend of energy storage has become a key issue. This study selects indicators from three dimensions of energy storage: low-carbon emission reduction, smoothing wind and solar power fluctuations, and saving generation costs, quantifying the economic, environmental, and technical values of energy storage.
