Abstract
The large-scale penetration of renewable energy leads to some imperative issues to the power grid. Energy storage technology is regarded as an effective method to solve these problems. In this paper, a hybrid cogeneration energy system based on compressed air energy storage system with high temperature thermal energy storage and supercritical CO2 Brayton cycle is proposed. A thermodynamic model of the system is established. Energy and exergy analysis are carried out based on a case study. It was found that under the design condition, the round trip efficiency of 58.66%, the energy storage density of 5.45 kWh/m3, and the overall exergy efficiency of 62.00% can be achieved. At the same time, the hot water about 88°C can be supplied. The influences of some key parameters on the performance are analyzed. It was found that the round trip efficiency is most sensitive to the outlet temperature of high temperature thermal energy storage system, isentropic efficiency of compressors and turbines, followed by the intercoolers effectiveness.
