Analysis of Energy Storage Demand and Applicability in New Power System

Constructing a new power system centered around renewable energy sources represents the developmental trajectory of the power sector and a pivotal avenue towards achieving carbon neutrality. In comparison to conventional power systems, the unique attributes of the new power system pose distinct challenges, necessitating the deployment of energy storage technologies as a crucial solution. This paper delineates the characteristics of the new power system and scrutinizes the demand for energy storage technologies within this paradigm. Various energy storage technologies are evaluated based on metrics such as capacity scalability, response time, and duration of continuous charge and discharge. By addressing the specific requirements of the new power system, the suitability of different energy storage technologies is deliberated upon, culminating in the establishment of a quantitative evaluation framework to assess their applicability. This framework enables the quantification of energy storage performance tailored to diverse power system needs, facilitating informed decision-making for users in selecting the most suitable energy storage technology.
