Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy storage, and relates to a distributed energy storage system and method coupled with a micro gas turbine. Background Art
[0002] The demand for energy in rural areas is becoming increasingly diversified, covering various forms such as electricity and thermal energy. Renewable energy, such as solar energy and wind energy, provides a rich source of energy for rural areas. These energy sources are not only renewable, but also widely distributed. Especially in rural areas, solar energy and wind energy resources are particularly abundant. By utilizing these renewable energy sources, rural areas can meet their own energy needs and reduce their dependence on external energy. However, with the large-scale application of renewable energy, the intermittent and unstable problems of energy are becoming increasingly prominent.
[0003] At present, renewable energy power generation mostly uses energy storage systems coupled with micro gas turbines in terms of energy storage. The energy storage systems coupled with micro gas turbines can smooth out fluctuations caused by the intermittent and unstable nature of renewable energy on the power grid, thereby reducing the impact on the power grid.
[0004] However, since the energy storage systems coupled with micro gas turbines are mostly designed for a single power supply, they lack consideration of multiple application scenarios and multi-energy cogeneration capabilities, resulting in low efficiency in the storage and utilization of unstable electricity generated by renewable energy generation.

[0017] A water storage tank stores water at normal temperature and pressure.
[0018] The first water pump has an inlet connected to the first outlet of the water storage tank, and its outlet is respectively connected to the first inlet and the second inlet of the energy storage tank. The first water pump is electrically connected to the first generator. The first water pump is used to pressurize the normal temperature and pressure water in the water storage tank into normal temperature and high pressure water and transport it to the energy storage tank.
[0019] The energy release component is connected to the energy storage tank and is used to convert the pressure energy in the stored high-pressure water at normal temperature into electrical energy and transmit it to the power grid during peak electricity consumption.
[0020] The energy release components include: The inlet of the water turbine is connected to the outlet of the energy storage tank, the outlet of the water turbine is connected to the first inlet of the water storage tank, the output end of the water turbine is connected to the second generator, and the electric energy generated by the second generator is transmitted to the power grid.

[0024] The outlet of the heat exchanger is connected to the second inlet of the cold storage tank, and the second outlet of the cold storage tank is connected to the second inlet of the water storage tank.
[0025] A distributed energy storage method coupled with a micro gas turbine comprises the following steps: Air at normal temperature and pressure is introduced into the compressor for pressurization, so that the air at normal temperature and pressure becomes high-temperature and high-pressure air.
[0026] High-temperature and high-pressure air is introduced into the heating element, and the electric energy generated by the renewable energy power generation equipment is used to power the heating element. The heating element heats the high-temperature and high-pressure air, turning the high-temperature and high-pressure air into ultra-high-temperature and high-pressure air.
[0027] The ultra-high temperature and high pressure air is introduced into the first turbine to expand and do work, and the ultra-high temperature and high pressure air becomes high temperature and medium pressure air. The heat in the high temperature and medium pressure air is stored in the heat storage module, and the high temperature and medium pressure air becomes normal temperature and medium pressure air.
[0028] Normal temperature medium pressure air is introduced into the second turbine to expand and do work, and the normal temperature medium pressure air becomes low temperature normal pressure air. The cold energy in the low temperature normal pressure air is stored in the cold energy storage module, and the low temperature normal pressure air becomes normal temperature normal pressure air and is discharged.
[0029] When electricity consumption is low, the first turbine and the second turbine drive the first generator to generate electricity, which is stored in the electric energy storage and utilization module. When electricity consumption is peak, the first turbine and the second turbine drive the first generator to generate electricity, which is directly transmitted to the power grid. At the same time, the electric energy stored in the electric energy storage and utilization module is transmitted to the power grid.
[0030] When the electricity consumption is low, the specific steps of storing the electric energy generated by the first generator driven by the first turbine and the second turbine through the electric energy storage and utilization module are as follows: The electric energy generated by the first generator driven by the first turbine and the second turbine is transmitted to the first water pump, and the first water pump is started. The first water pump pressurizes the normal temperature and pressure water in the water tank and converts it into normal temperature and high pressure water. A part of the high temperature and high pressure water enters the water tank through the first inlet of the water tank for storage, and the other part of the high temperature and high pressure water enters the water tank through the second inlet of the water tank for spraying operation, so as to cool the nitrogen and compress it isothermally.
[0031] During peak hours of electricity consumption, the specific steps for transmitting the electric energy stored in the electric energy storage and utilization module to the power grid are as follows: The normal temperature and high pressure water in the energy storage tank is introduced into the turbine, and the turbine drives the second generator to generate electricity and transmit it to the power grid. The normal temperature and high pressure water is converted into normal temperature and pressure water and returns to the water storage tank.
[0032] Start the second water pump, which introduces the normal temperature water in the water storage tank into the preheater. The low-grade heat generated by renewable energy heats the normal temperature and pressure water, so that the normal temperature and pressure water becomes high-temperature and normal pressure water. The high-temperature and normal pressure water enters the heat exchanger to exchange heat with the expanding and cooled nitrogen, so that the nitrogen maintains isothermal expansion and the high-temperature and normal pressure water becomes low-temperature and normal pressure water.
[0033] The low-temperature and normal-pressure water is introduced into the heat storage tank, and the cold energy is stored in the heat storage tank and then converted into normal-temperature and normal-pressure water and returned to the water storage tank.
[0034] The temperature of normal temperature and normal pressure air is 15℃~25℃, and the pressure is 1bar, the temperature of high temperature and high pressure air is 150℃~300℃, and the pressure is 2bar~6bar, the temperature of ultra-high temperature and high pressure air is 650℃~1200℃, and the pressure is 2bar~6bar, the temperature of high temperature and medium pressure air is 150℃~300℃, and the pressure is 1.2bar~3bar, the temperature of normal temperature and medium pressure air is 25℃~50℃, and the pressure is 1.2bar~3bar, the temperature of low temperature and normal pressure air is -10℃~15℃, and the pressure is 1bar, the temperature of normal temperature and high pressure water is 20℃~30℃, and the pressure is 10bar~200bar, the temperature of high temperature and normal pressure water is 60℃~90℃, and the pressure is 1bar, and the temperature of low temperature and normal pressure water is 0℃~15℃, and the pressure is 1bar.
[0035] A distributed energy storage system and method coupled with a micro gas turbine of the present invention has the following advantages: First, through the coordination of the micro gas turbine, the second turbine, the heat storage module, the cold storage module and the electric energy storage and utilization module, it is possible to store heat and cold while storing electric energy, which not only realizes the efficient storage and utilization of the unstable electric energy generated by renewable energy power generation, avoids the grid fluctuation problems caused by direct grid connection, but also provides reliable electricity, heat and cold supply for rural areas, improving the utilization efficiency of renewable energy.
[0036] Second, the present invention is centered on a micro gas turbine, which is small in size, light in weight, and compact in structure, making it particularly suitable for distributed deployment. The distributed design can fully adapt to scenarios with dispersed energy demands such as rural areas and small factories. The system does not need to rely on large-scale centralized energy storage equipment, nor does it require special terrain conditions. It can be independently deployed in multiple distributed nodes such as villages, towns, and factories, achieving flexible layout on demand and rapid response to local energy demands.
[0037] Third, the present invention can provide stable energy input by combining unstable electric energy generated by micro gas turbines with renewable energy, and utilize air in the external atmosphere as the working medium. It does not require high-pressure storage tanks or electrochemical energy storage devices. The distributed operation mode not only reduces construction complexity and investment costs, but also enables each node to have the ability to operate independently, thus maintaining a reliable supply of local energy even when a centralized power grid fails.
[0038] Fourth, the present invention adopts a modular design. Key equipment such as energy storage tanks and heat exchangers are compact structures. Energy storage tanks can be flexibly arranged and can be buried underground or installed in a dispersed manner, which greatly reduces the occupation of ground space and improves the concealment and safety of the equipment. The modular design also allows the system to flexibly expand capacity according to actual needs and adapt to fluctuations in energy demand in different regions.
[0039] Fifth, the present invention uses a distributed energy storage system to flexibly adjust the energy release capacity during peak electricity consumption, and uses a micro gas turbine and air turbine to generate electricity, in conjunction with heat and cold storage equipment, to achieve a comprehensive supply of electricity, heat and cold energy. This distributed energy supply method is particularly suitable for the diversified energy needs of rural areas and small factories, providing users with a reliable and efficient comprehensive energy solution.
[0040] Sixth, the present invention can make full use of the characteristics of unstable electric energy in renewable energy (such as photovoltaic and wind power generation), convert it into stored heat energy, cold energy and potential energy, and avoid the grid fluctuation problems that may be caused by direct grid connection. At the same time, under the operation of distributed nodes, each micro gas turbine can independently cooperate with renewable energy to achieve efficient energy conversion and consumption, further optimize the energy structure, and increase the proportion of clean energy in the system.

The air at normal temperature and pressure in the atmosphere enters the compressor 2 for pressurization, so that the air at normal temperature and pressure becomes high-temperature and high-pressure air, and the high-temperature and high-pressure air enters the air heater 3. The electric energy generated by the renewable energy power generation equipment 1 is used to power the electric heater 17, and the heat generated by the operation of the electric heater 17 is supplied to the air heater 3, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure air becomes ultra-high-temperature and high-pressure air, and the ultra-high-temperature and high-pressure air becomes ultra-high-temperature and high-pressure air. High-temperature and high-pressure air enters the first turbine 4 to generate electricity, and the ultra-high-temperature and high-pressure air becomes high-temperature medium-pressure air. The high-temperature medium-pressure air enters the high-temperature heat exchanger 5 to exchange heat with the heat storage medium from the heat storage tank 6. The high-temperature medium-pressure air becomes normal-temperature medium-pressure air. The heat storage medium enters the heat storage tank 6 for storage for use in rural agriculture, rural factories and central heating.

[0067] The first turbine 4 and the second turbine 7 drive the first generator 28 to generate electricity and transmit the electric energy to the first water pump 10, and the first water pump 10 is started. The first water pump 10 pressurizes the normal temperature and normal pressure water in the water storage tank 14 into normal temperature and high pressure water and transmits it to the energy storage tank 11. A part of the normal temperature and high pressure water enters the energy storage tank 11 through the first inlet of the energy storage tank 11 for storage, and the nitrogen is compressed during the storage process. The other part of the normal temperature and high pressure water enters the spray structure through the second inlet of the energy storage tank 11, and the high pressure water is sprayed into the energy storage tank 11 through the spray structure to perform a spray operation, so as to cool the compressed nitrogen so that the nitrogen can be isothermally compressed.

[0069] The first water pump 10 stops working, and the normal temperature and high pressure water in the energy storage tank 11 is introduced into the turbine 13 to drive the turbine 13 to generate electricity. The electricity generated by the second generator 29 driven by the turbine 13 is transmitted to the power grid, and the normal temperature and high pressure water becomes normal temperature and pressure water and returns to the water storage tank 14. At the same time, the electricity generated by the renewable energy power generation equipment 1 is used to power the second water pump 15, and the second water pump 15 is started. The second water pump 15 introduces the normal temperature water in the water storage tank 14 into the preheater 16, and the normal temperature and pressure water is heated by the low-grade heat generated by the renewable energy power generation equipment 1, so that the normal temperature and pressure water is changed into high temperature and pressure water. The high temperature and pressure water enters the heat exchanger 12 to exchange heat with the nitrogen gas that is expanding and cooling, so that the nitrogen gas maintains isothermal expansion, and the high temperature and pressure water is changed into low temperature and pressure water. The low temperature and pressure water is introduced into the heat storage tank 6, and the cold energy is stored in the heat storage tank 6 and then changed into normal temperature and pressure water and returns to the water storage tank 14, completing the energy release process.
