Sometimes two is better than one. Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling.
The photovoltaic installed capacity set in the figure is 2395kW. When the energy storage capacity is 1174kW h, the user’s annual expenditure is the smallest and the economic benefit is the best. Fig. 4. The impact of energy storage capacity on annual expenditures.
The optimal configuration capacity of photovoltaic and energy storage depends on several factors such as time-of-use electricity price, consumer demand for electricity, cost of photovoltaic and energy storage, and the local annual solar radiation.
Sometimes energy storage is co-located with, or placed next to, a solar energy system, and sometimes the storage system stands alone, but in either configuration, it can help more effectively integrate solar into the energy landscape. What Is Energy Storage?
When the electricity price is relatively high and the photovoltaic output does not meet the user’s load requirements, the energy storage releases the stored electricity to reduce the user’s electricity purchase costs.
The configuration of user-side energy storage can effectively alleviate the timing mismatch between distributed photovoltaic output and load power demand, and use the industrial user electricity price mechanism to earn revenue from peak shaving and valley filling.
