Thermal energy storage systems help to couple thermal energy generation and process demand in cogeneration facilities. One single deposit with two design temperatures and one main temperature step in sensible thermal energy storage define the thermocline systems. Performance of one high size real thermocline thermal energy storage system is analysed. Starting from temperature and mass flow rate data registered by the plant control system, one advanced thermodynamic analysis is performed. The quality of heat storage is analysed in terms of evaluation of the stratification in the thermocline zone. The temperature data registered at 21 positions is extended by displacement analysis generating detailed profiles. Fraction of recoverable heat, thermocline width, stratification indices based on energy and exergy analysis, and mean temperature gradients in the thermocline region are calculated. These parameters are monitored under real operation conditions of the plant. The calculated parameters are studied to check their distribution and correlation. First and Second Law indices show parallel behaviour and two values are found that delimit situations of high and low values of mean temperature gradients. It was observed that buoyancy generates uniform forced movement with the right water temperature entering the diffusers, but good control strategies are essential to avoid mixing. The system demonstrated great stability in this use.

This paper describes simulation-based results of a large-scale investigation of a commercial cooling plant including a thermal energy storage system. A cooling plant with an ice-on-coil system with external melt and a reciprocating compressor operating in a large office building was analyzed under four different control strategies. Optimal control as the strategy that minimizes the total operating cost (demand and energy charges) served as a benchmark to assess the performance of the three conventional controls. However, all control strategies depend on properly selected design parameters. The storage and chiller capacities as the primary design parameters were varied over a wide range and the dependence of the system’s cost saving performance on these parameters was evaluated.

With the rapid growth of renewable energy and the DC fast charge pile of the electric vehicle, their inherent volatility and randomness increase a power system’s unbalance of instantaneous power. The need for power grid frequency regulation is increasing. The energy storage system (ESS) can be used to assist the thermal power unit so that a better frequency regulation result is obtained without changing the original operating mode of the unit. In this paper, a set of different charging/discharging control strategies of the lithium titanate battery (LTO) is proposed, which are chosen according to the interval of the State of energy (SOE) to improve the utilization rate of the ESS. Finally, the cost-benefit model of the ESS participating in automatic generation control ancillary service is established. Case analysis proves that after a 1.75 MWh ESS is configured for a 600 MW thermal power unit, Kp and D is increased from 1.42 to 6.38 and 2857 to 6895 MW. The net daily income is increased from 20,284 yuan to 199,900 yuan with a repayment period of 93 days. The results show that the control strategies and the energy configuration method can improve the performance and economic return of the system.

With the continuous development of distributed solar, wind power and other renewable energy sources, renewable energy sources which has its own features, such as intermittent and randomness volatility, brings great challenges to the stable operation of power grid. Aiming at meeting the requirement of balancing the fluctuating renewable energy sources of micro grid, this paper proposes the operating control strategies of the zinc bromine flow battery storage. Firstly, the equivalent mathematical model based on the working principle of the zinc bromine flow battery is established; Secondly, a dual closed-loop strategy for the DC/DC converter is proposed, of which the inner loop is peak current control on zinc bromine flow battery side inductance while the outer loop is a switch control by constant active power and trickle current. By resorting the DC/AC grid side converter, the stability of DC bus voltage is maintained; Then, this paper proposes the optimization power control strategies of zinc bromine battery energy storage system as a constraint of state of charge and DC bus voltage; Finally, a 50kW zinc bromine flow battery energy storage system test platform is built, and the charging and discharging characteristics of zinc bromine energy storage system (ZESS) is researched in grid-connected mode, the test results have shown that the proposed power optimization control strategies for zinc bromine energy storage system could smooth renewable energy sources power fluctuation.
