The power system faces numerous challenges, including efficient absorption and stable operation. While renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power are environmentally friendly, their volatility and randomness lead to instability in the operation of the power distribution network. To address the volatility issues brought about by renewable energy integration, existing technologies typically employ battery energy storage or load regulation to balance supply and demand. However, battery energy storage suffers from high costs, limited storage time, and energy loss, making it insufficient to meet large-scale, long-term energy storage needs. Therefore, existing power distribution network energy storage technologies face the problem of being unable to store energy on a large scale and efficiently, resulting in severe wind and solar power curtailment.
