In the past ten years, the development of the energy storage industry has made great progress in technology, application, business model, etc., but with the rapid development of the energy industry and the advancement of the power market-oriented reform process, the development of the energy storage industry is still facing some deep-seated problems, which need to be made from the following aspects:
1. The first is to accelerate the research and development of advanced energy storage technology and enhance the competitiveness of China's energy storage industry. To solve the current problems of advanced energy storage technology, it is necessary to improve the industrial chain of advanced energy storage technology, promote the high-quality development of domestic energy storage technology, and further maintain the leading position of China's energy storage industry.
2. The second is to actively guide the coordinated development and application of renewable energy and energy storage. Forward-looking layout and planning research should be done to avoid ineffective allocation of resources; Clarify the entry threshold for energy storage to ensure high-quality application of energy storage; Implement supporting policies for the application of supporting projects, and promote the development of friendly renewable energy models. At present, it is necessary to introduce transitional policies to support the coordinated development of renewable energy and energy storage, give full play to the problems of energy storage to smooth fluctuations, track output, reduce curtailment and alleviate transmission line congestion, improve renewable energy consumption capacity, and comprehensively improve the utilization level of renewable energy. In the long run, when the existing cost of electricity is higher than the cost of traditional thermal power, a compensation mechanism should be established to achieve cost relief.
3. Once again, we should actively promote the construction of energy storage market mechanism. At the same time, we will solve the difficulties and problems of energy storage in the market application, explore the establishment of an ancillary service sharing and sharing mechanism with the participation of power users, closely connect the existing market mechanism with the pilot construction of the spot market in a timely manner, and establish a long-term development mechanism in line with market rules; Clarify the procedures for land approval and grid connection of energy storage power stations, and clear the institutional obstacles for energy storage to participate in the power market.
4. Finally, we should improve the construction of the standard system and ensure the high-quality development of the industry. Further improve the technical standards for energy storage planning and design, equipment testing, grid-connected testing, safe operation and maintenance, fire protection, etc., and establish a threshold for energy storage implementation. Promote the coordinated development of energy storage technology innovation and standardization, solve the key problems of energy storage facilities participating in the operation of the system, and effectively ensure the high-quality development of China's energy storage and energy storage industry.
