Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coal-fired power generation and energy storage, and in particular to a thermal battery energy storage system coupled with a coal-fired power generation unit and an operation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous growth of energy demand and the proposal of the dual-carbon strategy, the proportion of new energy in my country's energy system is gradually increasing. The use of renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy has become an important direction for future energy development and will gradually become the main body of power supply in the future. However, renewable energy generation is generally intermittent and highly volatile. Its large-scale grid connection will seriously affect the safety, stability and power supply quality of the power grid, and will lead to more serious problems of wind and solar power abandonment.

[0003] In addition, when wind and solar power generation fluctuates greatly, the grid's reliance on peak-shaving capabilities increases significantly, requiring coal-fired power generating units to shift from the main power source to the supporting and regulating power source, and to undertake more peak-shaving and frequency-regulating services. Among them, how to further reduce the load of coal-fired units while ensuring safety, expand the peak-shaving range of units, and achieve efficient and flexible coordination are key core issues that need to be urgently addressed in the development of my country's power industry.

[0004] Thermal batteries include three parts: electricity-to-heat, heat storage, and heat-to-electricity. The electricity-to-heat part stores heat in a heat storage medium through electric heating or a reverse Brayton cycle. In the heat-to-electricity part, the heat storage medium acts as a heat source to heat water step by step into superheated steam, which then enters the steam turbine system to generate power. Coupling a thermal battery energy storage system with a traditional thermal power unit can greatly improve the peak-shaving capacity of the power station, thereby effectively responding to rapid fluctuations in the grid load and improving the flexibility and stability of the power system; at the same time, the system can utilize the electricity generated by abandoned wind and solar power to increase the access rate of renewable energy to the grid, thereby being vigorously developed.

[0005] In the evaluation of thermal battery systems, the COP of the electric-to-heat part is an important evaluation indicator. Traditional thermal battery electric-to-heat systems usually use 15°C methanol as the heat source of the cold source heat exchanger. Although it can preheat the circulating working fluid, there is still a large temperature difference between the preheated circulating working fluid and the regenerative heater, which will increase the heat exchange loss of the regenerative heat exchanger. At the same time, the circulating working fluid temperature at the outlet of the regenerative heat exchanger will also affect the power generation of the auxiliary steam turbine. Therefore, the COP range of the electric-to-heat part is mostly between 1.2 and 1.3. Coupling the thermal battery energy storage system with the traditional thermal power unit is expected to further improve the COP of the thermal battery electric-to-heat part while reducing the cold end exhaust loss of the coal-fired power generation unit. However, there is currently a lack of design and operation control methods for the configuration of the thermal battery energy storage system coupled with the coal-fired power generation unit. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a thermal battery energy storage system coupled with a coal-fired power generation unit and an operation method thereof, which uses the exhaust steam of the low-pressure cylinder as a heat source to preheat the circulating working fluid in the thermal battery heat pump system, thereby increasing the overall efficiency and COP of the system and enhancing the exhaust steam recovery and utilization capacity.
