Techno-economically feasible secondary and flow battery technologies are required to enable future offshore wind farms with integrated energy storage. The natural intermittency of wind energy is a challenge that must be overcome to allow a greater introduction of this resource into the energy mix.
In wind farms, the energy storage system can realize the time and space transfer of energy, alleviate the intermittency of renewable energy and enhance the flexibility of the system. However, the high cost limits its large-scale application.
Considering the economic benefits of the combined wind-storage system and the promotion value of using energy storage to suppress wind power fluctuations, it is of great significance to study the optimal allocation of energy storage capacity for wind farms.
Considering whole-life-cycle cost of the self-built energy storage, leasing and trading cost of the CES and penalty cost of wind abandonment and smooth power shortage, an optimal configuration model of combined energy storage capacity in wind farms based on CES service was established to minimize the total annual cost.
For this purpose, the incorporation of energy storage systems to provide those services with no or minimum disturbance to the wind farm is a promising alternative.
Taking full account of the demand of wind farms to extend the service life of self-built energy storage and suppress wind power fluctuations, an optimization model of wind farm capacity configuration based on CES service is established. Through theoretical analysis and case studies, the following conclusions can be drawn:
In this section, a review of several available technologies of energy storage that can be used for wind power applications is evaluated. Among other aspects, the operating principles, the main components and the most relevant characteristics of each technology are detailed.
