Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an energy storage type cold power station, and in particular to a cold power station using liquid air for energy storage (liquid air is referred to as liquid air, the same below). Background Art
[0003] Since photovoltaic and wind power generation are random and intermittent, and electricity has the characteristics of real-time balance of supply and demand and is difficult to store on a large scale, the large-scale grid-connected photovoltaic and wind power generation will aggravate the dual volatility and uncertainty on both the supply and demand sides of the power system, making system peak regulation difficult and bringing about a series of problems such as abandoned solar and wind power. Energy storage can smooth out the instability of photovoltaic and wind power generation and achieve a dynamic balance of electricity supply and demand.
[0004] In the summer, electricity demand is strong, and the peak-valley electricity price difference continues to expand. In 17 provinces and regions, the peak-valley electricity price difference exceeds 0.7 yuan / kWh, and the economic benefits of industrial and commercial energy storage projects are highlighted. In July 2024, with the arrival of summer, the peak-valley electricity price difference in various regions across the country has widened. A total of 17 regions have a peak-valley electricity price difference of more than 0.7 yuan / kWh. The top three are Guangdong Province (five cities in the Pearl River Delta), Hainan Province, and Jiangsu Province. The largest peak-valley price differences reached 1.27 yuan / kWh, 1.22 yuan / kWh, and 1.14 yuan / kWh, respectively, and the economic benefits of peak-valley arbitrage have been significantly improved. Even in the spring when electricity demand is relatively stable, there are still 16 regions with a peak-valley electricity price difference of more than 0.7 yuan / kWh in March, which effectively guarantees the profitability stability of peak-valley arbitrage of industrial and commercial energy storage systems in the year-round dimension.
[0005] The new energy power supply system will face problems such as mismatch between power supply and demand, and energy storage, virtual power plants, microgrids and other regulatory means are indispensable. Electricity is a dynamic process energy that is not easy to store. It is mainly achieved through the power grid to achieve simultaneous production, transmission and consumption. The power generation method of new energy (such as wind power and solar energy) is greatly affected by weather conditions and has the characteristics of intermittent, volatility and instability. Large-scale application will have an impact on the stability of the power grid. In order to cope with the power generation characteristics of new energy power generation, energy storage, virtual power plants, microgrids and other regulatory means will be widely used in the future. Therefore, the configuration of energy storage is indispensable in the future green power energy system, and the role of new energy storage in promoting the development and consumption of new energy and the safe and stable operation of the power system is gradually emerging.
[0006] Liquid air energy storage (LAES) is a new type of energy storage technology that stores energy by liquefying air. This technology uses the "compression-expansion" process of air to cool the compressed air to a liquid state for storage, completing the conversion of electrical energy and pressure energy. Compared with traditional compressed air energy storage systems (CAES), liquefied air energy storage technology realizes the storage of electrical energy in the form of liquid air. In addition to the many application advantages of compressed air energy storage technology, this technology does not require large pressure storage containers, thus getting rid of the restrictions on its site selection and construction due to factors such as geographical location. The energy storage density of this method is 10 to 40 times that of compressed air energy storage. It can store more energy in smaller containers, is not restricted by geographical conditions, and has more flexible site selection.
[0007] Chinese patents such as CN201210266701.0-High-pressure liquid air energy storage and release system, CN201210266535.4-High-efficiency high-pressure liquid air energy storage and release system, etc., have conducted in-depth research on liquid compressed air energy storage (LAES) technology.
[0008] The key equipment of LAES technology, such as compressors, high-pressure gas storage tanks, cryogenic expanders, liquid pumps, expansion generators and other domestic equipment, has been relatively mature, and the industrial chain is mature. As the capacity of the energy storage system increases, the cost will tend to decrease, and it is expected that LAES technology will usher in a broader application prospect in the future.
[0009] Therefore, the liquid air cooling power generation, high-pressure and low-temperature gas-phase air cooling power generation, and low-pressure and low-temperature air cooling power generation technologies in LAES are worthy of in-depth study. Summary of the invention
