Power System Capacity Planning Considering Seasonal Hydrogen Storage by Salt Caverns
In China, air conditioning in summer and electric heating in winter lead to seasonal volatility in load power. Therefore, it is urgent to develop economic and efficient long-term energy storage systems to enhance peak regulation. Power-to-hydrogen technology is a perspective solution to balance seasonal power fluctuation. However, current hydrogen storage methods have shortcomings such as small storage capacity, high levelized cost and low operation safety, which the salt cavern hydrogen storage could overcome. This paper considers the use of hydrogen storage in salt caverns as a means of peak shaving. To minimize the overall operating cost, a comprehensive power system capacity planning model is proposed with the consideration of hydrogen storage in salt caverns, which is implemented by adopting an improved fast unit commitment method. Considering the seasonal characteristics of the load power in Jiangsu Province, the capacity of the power system in 2050 has been planned. According to the case study, after the optimal deployment of the salt cavern hydrogen storage system (SCHSS), the construction capacity of renewable units (especially wind power) will be significantly increased with environmental friendliness and lower costs. Compared with the current energy storage method, the overall cost of SCHSS-incorporated power system will be reduced by 22.2% with a carbon emission reduction of 24.4%, and the amount of curtailed wind and solar power will be reduced by 27.0% and 13.6%, respectively.
