The power grid side connects the source and load ends to play the role of power transmission and distribution; The energy storage side obtains benefits by providing services such as peak cutting and valley filling, frequency, and amplitude modulation, etc.
Energy storage stations have different benefits in different scenarios. In scenario 1, energy storage stations achieve profits through peak shaving and frequency modulation, auxiliary services, and delayed device upgrades . In scenario 2, energy storage power station profitability through peak-to-valley price differential arbitrage.
The power grid company improves transmission efficiency by connecting or building wind farms, constructing grid-side energy storage, upgrading the grid, and assisting users in energy conservation, carbon offsetting, etc. to achieve zero carbon goals.
Where a profitable application of energy storage requires saving of costs or deferral of investments, direct mechanisms, such as subsidies and rebates, will be effective. For applications dependent on price arbitrage, the existence and access to variable market prices are essential.
Building upon both strands of work, we propose to characterize business models of energy storage as the combination of an application of storage with the revenue stream earned from the operation and the market role of the investor.
In this case, the energy storage side connects the source and load ends, which needs to fully meet the demand for output storage on the power side and provide enough electricity to the load side, so a large enough energy storage capacity configuration is a must.
