Additionally, modern grid integration policies increasingly focus on smart grid technologies, energy storage requirements, and advanced monitoring systems to manage
Rational allocation of energy storage capacity and optimization of corresponding subsidy policies are crucial prerequisites for enhancing the economic viability and widespread adoption of photovoltaic energy storage integration projects.
The results indicate that, while the current energy storage subsidy policies positively stimulate photovoltaic energy storage integration projects, they exhibit a limited capacity to cover energy storage investment costs, thereby failing to incentivize capital market participation in the construction of such projects.
China's partial photovoltaic project allocation and storage related policies. NPV trend of 10% energy storage under different initial investment subsidy ratio. Figure 6. NPV trend of 10% energy storage under different initial investment subsidy ratio. Typical PV-ES integrated project put into operation in China. Variables and explanations.
In the context of China’s new power system, various regions have implemented policies mandating the integration of new energy sources with energy storage, while also introducing subsidies to alleviate project cost pressures. Currently, there is a lack of subsidy analysis for photovoltaic energy storage integration projects.
