Optimal configuration of shared energy storage for industrial users considering lifetime and charge-discharge strategy coupling

Abstract

With the development of renewable energy, energy storage has become one of the key technologies to solve the uncertainty of power generation and the disorder of power consumption and shared energy storage has become the focus of attention for its cost-effective characteristics. However, it is always difficult to quantify the coupling relationship between charge and discharge strategy and life expectancy in energy storage configuration. Based on this, this paper proposes an industrial user-side shared energy storage optimal configuration model, which takes into account the coupling characteristics of life and charge and discharge strategy. Firstly, the life loss model of lithium iron phosphate battery is constructed by using the rain-flow counting method. In order to further optimize the user-side shared energy storage configuration in the multi-user scenario, a two-layer model of energy storage configuration is built, and the Big M method and the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions are used to equivalently transform the constraints. Based on the predicted life of energy storage and the dichotomy method, the optimal energy storage configuration results are obtained. Comparing the energy cost of users under the three scenarios of no storage configuration, storage configuration according to fixed storage life, and storage configuration according to the model proposed in this paper, the results show that the proposed method can help accurately describe the energy storage model, increase the utilization rate of the power station, and improve the electricity economy of users.
