6 FAQs about [Energy storage project bidding price]
Which energy storage technologies are included in the 2020 cost and performance assessment?
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
What was the growth rate of energy storage projects in 2020?
In 2020, the year-on-year growth rate of energy storage projects was 136%, and electrochemical energy storage system costs reached a new milestone of 1500 RMB/kWh.
What are the procedures for establishing energy storage projects?
This includes defining the procedures for establishing energy storage projects, including fire safety approval, environmental assessment, land approval, facility approval, civil air defense approval, and other procedures. Grid companies must also clarify the procedures for grid connection of energy storage across various storage applications.
How do energy storage contracts work?
For standalone energy storage contracts, these are typically structured with a fixed monthly capacity payment plus some variable cost per megawatt hour (MWh) of throughput. For a combined renewables-plus-storage project, it may be structured with an energy-only price in lieu of a fixed monthly capacity payment.
What are the implications of a combined renewables-plus-storage project?
There will be important implications for a combined renewables-plus-storage project depending upon whether the project is DC coupled or AC coupled. For example, AC coupled systems are generally viewed as being simpler since the renewable energy storage can be connected separately with AC power.
Does Beijing still provide subsidies for energy storage projects?
At the same time, Beijing’s Chaoyang District continued to provide 20% initial investment subsidies for energy storage projects after energy storage was incorporated into the special funds for energy conservation and emission reduction in 2019.
