4 Frequently Asked Questions about “Peak-to-valley price arbitrage for energy storage power stations - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTD”

What is Peak-Valley arbitrage?

The peak-valley arbitrage is the main profit mode of distributed energy storage system at the user side (Zhao et al., 2022). The peak-valley price ratio adopted in domestic and foreign time-of-use electricity price is mostly 3–6 times, and even reach 8–10 times in emergency cases.

How does reserve capacity affect peak-valley arbitrage income?

However, when the proportion of reserve capacity continues to increase, the increase of reactive power compensation income is not obvious and the active output of converter is limited, which reduces the income of peak-valley arbitrage and thus the overall income is decreased.

Does energy storage affect peak-shaving cost?

On the other hand, references [35, 36] do not consider the impact of energy storage utilizing peak and off-peak electricity price arbitrage on the peak-shaving cost of the power system, thus failing to fully utilize the peak-shaving capabilities of energy storage.

How do energy storage power stations work?

Driven by the peak and valley arbitrage profit, the energy storage power stations discharge during the peak load period and charge during the low load period. They play the role of “cutting peak and filling valley” and realize the full utilization of energy storage resources.

Energy storage peak-valley electricity arbitrage
