Technical FAQs 4

Should energy storage be integrated in a microgrid?

It is recommended that energy storage be integrated in order to optimize the allocation of wind energy. Figure 1 illustrates the operational status of the microgrid, including instances of interconnection with the main grid, the installed capacity of wind power in each microgrid, and the maximum load parameters.

What happens if photovoltaic and wind generation exceeds the load?

When photovoltaic and wind generation exceeds the load, excess power cannot be sold to the grid and must be discarded. This is referred to as discarded power. When generation is insufficient, power must be purchased from the main grid. The configuration of each of the three microgrids in the absence of energy storage.

How efficient is a microgrid wind and energy storage system?

The efficiency of charging and discharging is 95% , and = 10 years = 3650 days. Furthermore, the = 1 YUAN/kWh, = 0.5 YUAN/kWh and = 0.4 YUAN/kWh. Based on these conditions, we have devised a configuration for coordinating and optimizing the microgrid wind and energy storage systems.

Why is wind energy important in microgrids?

With the rapid advancement of new energy sectors, the utilization of wind and photovoltaic power generation has witnessed a notable surge . Wind energy offers distinct advantages in environmental protection and accessibility. This has led to an increased importance of energy applications in many microgrids .
