The Economics of Energy Storage Systems
Discover how energy storage economics shape the future of renewable energy through cost efficiency, revenue models, and sustainable energy solutions.
Although ESS bring a diverse range of benefits to utilities and customers, realizing the wide-scale adoption of energy storage necessitates evaluating the costs and benefits of ESS in a comprehensive and systematic manner. Such an evaluation is especially important for emerging energy storage technologies such as BESS.
Therefore, the usage cost of energy storage is equivalent to the construction investment cost and operational cost, which is the full lifecycle cost. where (F_ {21}), (F_ {23}) are the economic benefit indicators under the self-built and sharing mode respectively, namely the investment cost of energy storage.
On the other hand, refining the energy storage configuration model by incorporating renewable energy uncertainty management or integrating multiple market transaction systems (such as spot and ancillary service markets) would improve the model's practical applicability.
First, energy storage configuration models for each mode are developed, and the actual benefits are calculated from technical, economic, environmental, and social perspectives. Then, the CRITIC method is applied to determine the weights of benefit indicators, and the TOPSIS method is used to rank the overall benefits of each mode.
