Technical FAQs 4

How can wind energy be stored?

Since wind conditions are not constant, wind energy can be stored by combining wind turbines with energy storage systems. These hybrid power plants allow for the efficient storage of excess wind power for later use.

Can integrated energy storage system generate more revenue than wind-only generation?

The integrated system can produce additional revenue compared with wind-only generation. The challenge is how much the optimal capacity of energy storage system should be installed for a renewable generation. Electricity price arbitrage was considered as an effective way to generate benefits when connecting to wind generation and grid.

What is the revenue of wind-storage system?

The revenue of wind-storage system is composed of wind generation revenue, energy storage income and its cost. With the TOU price, the revenue of the wind-storage system is determined by the total generated electricity and energy storage performance.

How a wind-storage coupled system can increase the initial investment?

When integrating the energy storage plant, it stores the wind power when the electricity price is low, and releases it when the price is high. The total income of the wind-storage coupled system can be significantly increased. However, it will increase the initial investment by adding energy storage system.
