The invention relates to a thermal power
plant electric steam boiler coupling spherical heat
storage tank system and a peak regulation and
frequency modulation method, and belongs to the technical field of novel
energy storage. The
system comprises a thermal power
generating unit, a steam extraction outlet of the thermal power
generating unit is connected with a first three-way valve, the first three-way valve is further connected with a second three-way valve and a first regulating valve, and the outlet end of the first regulating valve is connected with a steam heat storage spherical tank; a power supply outlet of the thermal power
generating unit is electrically connected with an
electric steam boiler and a
frequency modulation control module, the output end of the
electric steam boiler is connected with a second adjusting valve, and the output end of the second adjusting valve is connected with the steam heat storage spherical tank. The output end of the steam heat storage spherical tank is connected with an electric
superheater, the output end of the electric
superheater is connected with a second three-way valve, and the output end of the second three-way valve is externally connected with an industrial steam
pipe network. The
frequency modulation control module is further electrically connected with the first adjusting valve. Water in the electric steam boiler is heated to generate steam through thermal power flexible peak-shaving frequency-modulation surplus
electric power, or steam is extracted from a
steam turbine and fed into the steam heat storage spherical tank for heat storage and
energy storage, and the peak-shaving frequency-modulation
response capacity of the thermal power generating unit is improved.
