Tech-economic performance of fixed and mobile energy storage system is compared. The proposed method can improve system economics and renewable shares. With the large-scale integration of renewable energy and changes in load characteristics, the power system is facing challenges of volatility and instability.
The total system cost of mobile energy storage is the same as that of fixed energy storage, including investment cost, operating cost, and recovery cost. Unlike mobile energy storage, which incurs transportation costs during energy transportation, fixed energy storage incurs line transportation costs during energy transportation.
Mobile energy storage can improve system flexibility, stability, and regional connectivity, and has the potential to serve as a supplement or even substitute for fixed energy storage in the future. However, there are few studies that comprehensively evaluate the operational performance and economy of fixed and mobile energy storage systems.
By 2050, the promotion of renewable energy in Northeast and North China is expected to reach 75% and 66%, respectively. At this time, the overall system cost of mobile energy storage will further increase to 1.42 CNY/kWh and 0.98 CNY/kWh.
