Research on renewable energy accommodation in Henan Province during the 13th five-year plan

Abstract

As the government is promoting the development of distributed renewable energy (Renewable energy in this paper refers to wind power and solar power) in central and eastern China, the renewable energy generation in Henan Province will develop rapidly during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. In order to avoid the serious wind and solar power curtailment, this paper established an assessment model of renewable energy accommodation of Henan Province, and estimated renewable energy accommodation in Henan. Through time-sequential power system production simulation, this study drew the following conclusions: if the renewable energy installation capacity and distribution are as planned, the renewable energy curtailment rate of Henan would be 2.2% ∼ 3.6% in 2020; if the distribution can be adjusted, more renewable energy will be consumed in Henan with no renewable energy curtailment.
