Research on Optimal Configuration of Wind-Solar-Storage
To address challenges such as consumption difficulties, renewable energy curtailment, and high carbon emissions associated with large-scale wind and solar power
Figure 1 shows the structure of a wind-solar-hydro-thermal-storage multi-source complementary power system, which is composed of conventional units (thermal power units, hydropower units, etc.), new energy units (photovoltaic power plants, wind farms, etc.), energy storage systems, and loads.
No power curtailment occurs in the middle part, suggesting that hydropower can effectively complement wind and PV power during these days. Fig. 10 c illustrates a typical day in the left part which has relatively small hydropower outputs.
At the same time, hydropower units start and stop quickly and have fast regulation speed. If the hydropower station and wind farm are combined for operation, it can not only smooth the integrated output of wind and solar power to a certain extent, but also improve the peak shaving capacity of hydropower.
