TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of solar energy and energy storage system, and particularly relates to a supercritical CO2 photo-thermal power generation and liquid compression energy storage system and an operation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increase of new energy, especially wind power and solar photovoltaic power generation, the impact of new energy power generation on the power grid is becoming greater and greater. In order to solve this problem, more and more researches are carried out in the direction of photovoltaic supporting energy storage, wind power supporting energy storage, and energy storage peak shaving power station. Although there are many forms of energy storage, such as pumped storage, battery energy storage, compressed air energy storage, heat storage, and flywheel energy storage. However, at present, only compressed air energy storage, heat storage, and pumped storage are suitable for large-scale energy storage. Although battery energy storage has the highest efficiency, its cost is too high, and it is suitable for small and compact applications such as new energy vehicles, but it is not suitable for large-scale energy storage of power station level. Flywheel energy storage is suitable for frequency modulation which requires fast response, and is also not suitable for large-scale energy storage of power station level. Compared with compressed air energy storage, pumped storage, and heat storage, pumped storage has the lowest cost and relatively high efficiency, but the disadvantage is that it needs to build a reservoir, and is only suitable for construction in areas rich in water resources such as rivers and lakes. Heat storage is a rising energy storage method in recent years, and is widely used in the field of solar photo-thermal power generation. However, heat storage cannot be used alone, but is used as a supporting system for solar power generation system. If used as a separate energy storage power station, the cost is relatively high at present. Compressed air energy storage is another energy storage method comparable to pumped storage.
[0003] Compressed air energy storage has successively experienced the development process of supplemental combustion compressed air energy storage power station and heat storage compressed air energy storage power station, and is currently developing towards liquid compressed air energy storage power station and supercritical compressed air energy storage power station. Traditional supplemental combustion compressed air energy storage power station and heat storage compressed air energy storage power station need to store a large amount of compressed air, and generally choose special topography such as natural caves, abandoned mines, underground cavities, and aquifers to store compressed air. The newly built heat storage compressed air energy storage power station in China mainly uses ground storage tanks and pipeline gas storage. There are also designs of underwater air bag storage of compressed air abroad. However, these storage methods all have the problems of large occupation of land and high investment. The storage space of the most advanced liquid compressed air energy storage and supercritical compressed air energy storage can be theoretically reduced to one twentieth of the original, but these two technologies involve low-temperature cooling technology, which needs to cool the air to below -200℃ and -196℃. The difficulty of cryogenic technology is large, and the investment is large. That is, while solving the problem of compressed air storage space, these two new technologies introduce new technical difficulties.
[0004] Meanwhile, solar thermal power generation gradually rises, an important advantage of solar thermal power generation is that it can use cheap heat storage method for energy storage, so solar thermal power generation is gradually regarded as a supporting energy storage power station or regulating power station of photovoltaic power generation, and the solar thermal power station as an energy storage power station is also a large-scale energy storage method, but the development of the solar thermal power station is restricted by the defects of the solar thermal power generation itself, and the cost is too high. When it is used as a solar power generation device alone, it is difficult to compete with photovoltaic power generation, and only when it is combined with energy storage requirements can it be comparable to photovoltaic power generation, that is, when the cost of the photovoltaic power station equipped with the energy storage system is examined, the price can be compared with the solar thermal power generation. And the solar thermal power station as an energy storage power station can only store solar heat, and if the power grid needs to store more power, the solar thermal power station itself has no energy storage advantage.

The pipeline between the outlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 3 and the inlet of the molten salt side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4 is also closed. If the heat of solar thermal energy needs to be stored at the same time, a part of the low-temperature molten salt flows from the outlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 1 into the solar heat absorber 2, absorbs the heat of solar energy, and then enters the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 3 for storage. The pipeline between the outlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 3 and the inlet of the molten salt side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4 is still closed, and the pipeline between the outlet of the molten salt side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4 and the inlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 1 is also closed.

The high-pressure and high-temperature CO2 mixture working medium output from the high-pressure compressor 13 enters the working medium side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4, at this time the pipeline between the outlet of the high-pressure compressor 13 and the inlet of the cold side of the regenerator 8 is closed, the high-pressure and high-temperature CO2 mixture working medium releases heat in the molten salt heat exchanger 4 and then enters the high-temperature mixture storage tank 5 for storage. At the same time, the low-temperature molten salt flows from the outlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 1 into the molten salt side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4, absorbs heat in the molten salt heat exchanger 4, and then enters the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 3 for storage.

[0036] When the high pressure working medium in the high temperature mixture storage tank 5 is consumed, if there is still high temperature molten salt in the high temperature molten salt storage tank 3, the supercritical CO2 cycle can be switched to supply power to the power grid at this time. At this time, the high pressure compressor 13 is started, the high pressure CO2 mixture after being pressurized enters the cold side of the regenerator 8 to absorb heat, and then enters the working medium side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4 to continue to absorb heat, and then enters the high pressure turbine 6 to do work. The working medium after doing work has a pressure above the critical pressure, directly enters the hot side of the regenerator 8 to release heat, and then enters the hot side of the condenser 9 to continue to release heat. At this time, the working medium at the outlet of the condenser 9 is in a supercritical state with a pressure above the critical pressure, and the cooled working medium returns to the inlet of the high pressure compressor 13 to complete the cycle. In this process, the low pressure turbine 7 and the low pressure compressor 12 do not work, the inlet and outlet pipelines of the low pressure turbine 7, the inlet pipeline of the low temperature liquid mixture storage tank 10, the outlet pipeline of the low pressure turbine 7, the pipeline between the high pressure compressor 13 and the inlet of the working medium side of the molten salt heat exchanger 4, and the inlet and outlet pipelines of the high temperature mixture storage tank 5 are all closed.
