Booster station energy storage power generation

How can pumped-storage power (PSP) stations contribute to a low-carbon economy?

Facilitate the development of PSP station systems and a low-carbon economy. Optimizing peak-shaving and valley-filling (PS-VF) operation of a pumped-storage power (PSP) station has far-reaching influences on the synergies of hydropower output, power benefit, and carbon dioxide (CO 2) emission reduction.

What is pumped-storage power (PSP) station operation?

Pumped-storage power (PSP) station operation, known for its critical role in power grid system management, including load peak-shaving, load valley filling, frequency modulation, phase modulation, and emergency backup, holds great importance , , .

What are the stable statuses of a power generation unit?

The stable statuses of four units consist of power generation, pump storage, phase modulation and machine halt (Table 2). In general, units cannot operate in the phase modulation for a long time under pump storage status. Rotating backup for power generation cannot be substituted by unit idling or phase modulation in power generation.

How many mw can a power station produce?

The power station can produce 1,200 MW (=4 units * 300 MW/unit) of hydropower and regulate storage capacities of about 8.5 million m 3 and 8.7 million m 3 in upstream and downstream reservoirs, respectively. The upstream reservoir possesses an emergency reserve storage of 0.5 million m 3 to tackle emergency incidents.
