6 FAQs about [China energy storage 2017 installed capacity]

Is China ready to commercialize energy storage?

China is currently in the early stage of commercializing energy storage. As of 2017, the cumulative installed capacity of energy storage in China was 28.9 GW , accounting for only 1.6% of the total power generating capacity (1777 GW ), which is still far below the goal set by the State Grid of China (i.e., 4%–5% by 2020) .

Which type of energy storage is most popular in China?

Among them, Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) accounted for the largest proportion of the total installed capacity of energy storage in China, close to 99%, followed by electrochemical energy storage that is being rapidly developed in recent years.

How can compressed air energy storage improve the stability of China's power grid?

The intermittent nature of renewable energy poses challenges to the stability of the existing power grid. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) that stores energy in the form of high-pressure air has the potential to deal with the unstable supply of renewable energy at large scale in China.

How is energy storage configured?

Energy storage is generally configured according to the wind energy rejection rate . Here, the ratio of power capacity between energy storage and grid-connected wind power is set equal to the wind energy rejection rate, so that wind power generation can be connected to the grid.

How fast is China's energy demand growing?

The pace of growth in China’s energy demand slows dramatically in the New Policies Scenario to around 1% per year, less than one-sixth the average that the country has experienced each year since 2000.

Should China develop a CAES power plant based on underground air storage?

Based on China's current national conditions, several conclusions are drawn from this review. First, grid-level (100 MW and above) CAES power plants based on underground air storage are the first choice for developing CAES in China due to its mature technology and available geographical conditions.
