Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage systems, and in particular to a work control method and system for high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage systems. Background Art
[0002] my country's renewable energy sector is developing rapidly, with its development and utilization gradually deepening. However, renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy have poor energy supply stability and are prone to energy loss and waste, which has a certain impact on the power grid. At the same time, the need to improve the power grid's ability to accept, configure, and regulate clean energy is also gaining attention. Energy storage, as an important solution to the mismatch between energy supply and demand, is a key support for building a new power system, and its role and value are becoming increasingly prominent. Against this backdrop, compressed air energy storage technology has made significant progress. Based on traditional regenerative compressed air energy storage technology, the high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage system uses a heat exchanger to recover the heat generated during the compression process and uses this heat to heat the air entering the expander inlet. This achieves heat exchange between energy storage and release, improves the overall efficiency of the system, and does not rely on fossil fuel regeneration, avoiding carbon dioxide emissions. It provides a low-carbon and effective solution for large-scale wind and solar power grid integration.
[0003] Due to fluctuations in renewable energy power input, changes in gas storage chamber pressure, load regulation needs, and changes in ambient temperature, high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage systems often need to operate under non-design conditions. The discharge work capacity of the underground salt caverns in the system as gas storage equipment is highly uncertain, making the system efficiency difficult to predict. It is difficult to obtain the system efficiency before the end of a complete cycle, making it difficult to maintain the optimal efficiency of the unit through regulation. Summary of the Invention
