It must be noted, however, that when large energy storage systems are to be planned, not all the available energy storage systems are suitable, because the storage capacity of some of the systems (e.g. capacitors, ultra-capacitors, springs, flywheels, etc.) is very low to be used at the utility level.
The distance between the nearest wind tower and the coal power plant is less than two miles. Senator Harry Bird built Highway RT 48 here (often referred to as corridor H), to connect northern Virginia with central West Virginia.
The greater volatility of wind power increases the regulating difficulty of CFPP. Through optimization, the optimal storage capacities of the wind-coal-storage and PV-coal-storage systems are 5.5MWh and 3.2MWh respectively, enabling the integrated energy system power supply to reach grid-side demand levels.
This implies that the energy produced by solar and wind power cannot be absorbed by the consumers’ demand. Energy storage becomes necessary during these time periods. Of the available energy storage methods hydrogen storage is the most favorable for utility-level storage.
Wind is not generally predictable or reliable and does not coincide with energy demand that is generally more predictable based on the time of year, time of day, temperature etc. Wind power operates on average about 35% of rated capacity while coal power plants can operate near 90% of rated capacity.
It is found that there are significant differences in the integrated energy system of wind-coal and PV-coal due to the influence of natural conditions on wind and PV. The integrated energy system is analyzed from two aspects: the grid side and the power supply side.
