In the context of increasing renewable energy penetration, energy storage configuration plays a critical role in mitigating output volatility, enhancing absorption rates, and ensuring the stable operation of power systems. This paper proposes a benefit evaluation method for self-built, leased, and shared energy storage modes in renewable energy power plants.
First, energy storage configuration models for each mode are developed, and the actual benefits are calculated from technical, economic, environmental, and social perspectives. Then, the CRITIC method is applied to determine the weights of benefit indicators, and the TOPSIS method is used to rank the overall benefits of each mode.
Demand management benefit pertains to the electricity savings achieved by diminishing the monthly maximum electricity demand following the installation of the energy storage system. This reduction leads to decreased capacity electricity charges, as illustrated in Equation (8).
The operational and maintenance cost of the energy storage system encompasses the daily expenses associated with maintenance, fault repair, operation monitoring, and system management. These costs are essential to ensure the smooth operation of the energy storage system throughout the project cycle, as illustrated in Equation (5).
On the other hand, refining the energy storage configuration model by incorporating renewable energy uncertainty management or integrating multiple market transaction systems (such as spot and ancillary service markets) would improve the model's practical applicability.
