The capacity value of energy storage is dependent on the volume of renewable capacity in the system. The following tables summarize the projected wind and solar capacity and energy in the CAISO system in 2022. These amounts were derived from resource portfolios being developed in the CPUC’s IRP process as of November 2019.
Storage ELCC curves are derived by holding a resource portfolio constant and varying the capacity of storage.
The first 7,500 MWs of the 4-hour resources on the 2022 system are able to serve the shorter periods of elevated load but as the amount of energy storage resources on CAISO’s system is increased, the net load shape flattens. The incremental energy storage resources are then expected to serve longer periods leading to a diminished capacity value.
In recent years, many scholars have studied the planning of ESSs, however, most of the research models are single-objective models, and these models are difficult to consider the stability of the network and the economics of energy storage at the same time.
Distributed generation (DG) and energy storage systems (ESSs) play an important role in power grids with high renewable energy generation penetration rates (Wu et al., 2021a; Shi et al., 2022).
Due to the ability to cut peak load and fill valley load, battery energy storage systems (BESSs) can enhance the stability of the electric system. However, the placement and capacity of BESSs connected to ADN are extremely significant, otherwise, it will lead to a further decline in the stability of ADN.
