[0002] Since wind power and photovoltaic power generation are intermittent, random and volatile, they pose a huge challenge to the safety and reliability of the power system. Especially under extreme weather conditions, wind power and photovoltaic power generation are blocked and energy storage power stations are unavailable, and the power supply will face a huge crisis.

[0003] As far as current technology is concerned, due to cost constraints, the role of energy storage technology in wind and solar power generation on the power supply side is currently limited to eliminating small and short-term power fluctuations. It is impossible to adjust power supply according to grid demand in the short term. When there is no coal available, it is even more unable to cope with power crises in extreme climates.

[0018] The dual-stage energy storage and power generation method based on magnesium reduction of carbon dioxide described in the present invention comprises:

[0019] When there is surplus renewable energy power supply, the MgCl2 in the MgCl2 storage tank is sent to the electrolytic magnesium device, and the surplus renewable energy power supply is used to electrolyze Mg and Cl2.

[0034] When there is surplus renewable energy power supply, the MgCl2 in the MgCl2 storage tank 10 is sent to the electrolytic magnesium device 11, and the surplus renewable energy power supply is used for electrolysis to generate Mg and Cl2.
