Energy storage project construction scale and capacity
📌

What is an energy storage project?

An energy storage project is a cluster of battery banks (or modules) that are connected to the electrical grid. These battery banks are roughly the same size as a shipping container. These are also called Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), or grid-scale/utility-scale energy storage or battery storage systems.

What is the scope of energy storage in the PRC?

“ 工业和信息化部等六部门关于推动能源电子产业发展的指导意见,” People’s Government of the PRC, 3 Jan , at https:// www.gov.cn/zhengce/zhengceku/-01/17/content_5737584.htm. The scope includes two categories: dispatch-controlled new type energy storage and self-used new type energy storage by power stations.

📌

What is the 14th five-year plan for energy storage?

The “14th Five-Year Plan” has specified development goals for energy storage also on the provincial level. During the “14th FYP” period, 25 provinces and cities plan to complete 77.65 GW new type storage installation. That scale is more than twice the “14th FYP” target (30 GW) set by the NEA.

📌

How does the energy storage system work?

Each energy storage unit is connected to the 35kV distribution unit of the booster station through a 35kV collector line and then boosted to 220kV via a 120MVA (220/35kV) transformer. The project is equipped with an energy management system (EMS) to receive grid dispatching commands and manage the charge and discharge of the energy storage system.

📌

How much energy storage does China have in ?

By the end of , China had completed and put into operation a cumulative installed capacity of new type energy storage projects reaching 31.4GW / 66.9GWh, with an average storage duration of 2.1 hours. The newly added installed capacity in was approximately 22.6GW / 48.7GWh, which is three times that for (7.3GW / 15.9GWh).

📌

How long does ESS project take to complete?

This project demonstrates that ESS project completion took only 30 days from delivery, installation, and commissioning to grid connection, breaking the record for the shortest construction period of the ESS plants. Shandong Province has a high proportion of coal power generation. The peak load regulation depended mainly on thermal power.
