Urban peak load storage equipment

How effective is peak-load regulation capacity planning?

Based on probabilistic production simulation, a novel calculation approach for peak-load regulation capacity was established in Jiang et al. (2017), which is still effective for peak-regulation capacity planning when some information of renewable energy and loads is absent.

What is peak regulation?

Peak-regulation refers to the planned regulation of generation to follow the load variation pattern either in peak load or valley load periods. Sufficient peak-regulation capability is necessary for the reliable and secure operation of power grid, especially in urban regions with extremely large peak–valley load difference (Jin et al., 2020).

What are the impacts of peak load shaving policies?

The impacts of three policies for peak load shaving including load-side management, energy storage integration, and electric vehicle development were discussed in Uddin et al. (2018). In addition, some market-based mechanisms, optimization models and dispatch strategies have been designed to enhance the capability of peak-regulation.

Are uosc 2 & uosc 4 sufficient peak-regulation capacity?

In scenario I, the UOSCs on the right of UOSC 2 (including UOSC 2) can satisfy the peak load and the UOSCs on the left of UOSC 4 (including UOSC 4) can satisfy the valley load. It implies that UOSC 2, UOSC 6 and UOSC 4 are feasible to provide sufficient peak-regulation capacity for the load demands.
