Can a shared energy storage strategy address fossil fuel dependence?

Renewable energy development and advanced storage technologies are key to reducing fossil fuel dependence and enabling the green transition. This study proposes a shared energy storage strategy for renewable energy station clusters to address fossil fuel dependence and support the green energy transition.

Does shared energy storage support the green energy transition?

This study proposes a shared energy storage strategy for renewable energy station clusters to address fossil fuel dependence and support the green energy transition. By leveraging the spatiotemporal complementarities of storage demands, the approach improves system performance and output tracking.

What is shared electrical energy storage (SES) & shared thermal energy storage?

To mend the research gap, two CHP-SES system modes and design procedures, namely shared electrical energy storage (SEES), and shared thermal energy storage (STES), are proposed. These systems store distributed green power curtailments during the charging process and convert them to available power or heat during the discharging process.

What is shared energy storage?

Shared energy storage leverages temporal and spatial reuse, integrating the diverse demands of multiple participants and taking advantage of the complementary nature of these demands to achieve efficient utilization in conjunction with renewable energy. Shared energy storage can be divided into demand-driven and profit-driven models .

Can shared energy storage system improve user income?

A Shared energy storage system (SESS) has the potential in reducing investment costs, increasing the rate of renewable energy consumption, and facilitating users . In reference , the optimization algorithm of improving user income by optimizing the charging and discharging strategy of SESS is proposed.

Can shared electrical energy storage and shared thermal energy storage be used in CHP-SES?

Therefore, this paper proposes two CHP-SES design modes involving shared electrical energy storage and shared thermal energy storage, including three system configurations to store distributed green power curtailments during charging processes and convert them to available power or heat during discharging processes.
