6 FAQs about [Ratio of new energy access and energy storage]
Do charge power and energy storage capacity investments have O&M costs?
We provide a conversion table in Supplementary Table 5, which can be used to compare a resource with a different asset life or a different cost of capital assumption with the findings reported in this paper. The charge power capacity and energy storage capacity investments were assumed to have no O&M costs associated with them.
What is the energy return on energy invested ratio of CCS projects?
We estimate the electrical energy return on energy invested ratio of CCS projects, accounting for their operational and infrastructural energy penalties, to range between 6.6:1 and 21.3:1 for 90% capture ratio and 85% capacity factor.
Why is a reasonable allocation of energy storage important?
A reasonable allocation of energy storage ensures the safety support of thermal power for system operation and reduces the operational hours of thermal power units. This mechanism contributes to solving the issue of large-scale renewable energy curtailment.
What are the performance parameters of energy storage capacity?
Our findings show that energy storage capacity cost and discharge efficiency are the most important performance parameters. Charge/discharge capacity cost and charge efficiency play secondary roles. Energy capacity costs must be ≤US$20 kWh –1 to reduce electricity costs by ≥10%.
Can energy storage systems solve multi-area power system planning problems?
Energy storage systems (ESSs) are recognized as one of the promising methods to address this challenge. For multi-area power system planning problems, capacity allocations of RESs can vary considerably among areas accounting for the geographic diversities in RES generation and load patterns.
Can energy capacity and discharge power capacity be varied independently?
In our exploration of the LDES design space it was assumed that the three scaling dimensions, that is, energy capacity, discharge power capacity and charge power capacity, can be varied independently, even though all three degrees of freedom are not possible for certain technologies.
