Abstract:To reduce the influence of wind power output uncertainty on power system stability, demand response (DRPs) and energy storage systems (ESSs) are introduced while solving scheduling optimization problems. To simulate wind power scenarios, this paper uses Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) to generate the initial scenario set and constructs a scenario reduction strategy based on Kantorovich distance. Since DRPs and ESSs can influence the distribution of demand load, this paper constructs a joint scheduling optimization model for wind power, ESSs and DRPs under the objective of minimizing total coal cost, and constraints of power demand and supply balance, users' demand elasticity, thermal units' startup-shutdown, thermal units' output power climbing and wind power backup service. To analyze the influences of ESSs and DRPs on system wind power consumption capacity, example simulation is made in a 10 thermal units system with a 1000 MW wind farm and 400 MW energy storage systems under four simulation scenarios. The simulation results show that the introduction of DRPs and ESSs could promote system wind power consumption capacity with significantly economic and environment benefits,

This paper presents a macroscopic view on the prevailing policy and potential issues in respect of the sustainable wind power development in China. It starts by analyzing the characteristics of wind power resources and pin-pointing the relationship between the regulatory policies and various economic, taxation, legal and grid integration attributes relating to the wind power development. Then it follows by analyzing the status quo and capabilities of the wind power manufacturing industry in China including its operational efficiency and grid integration standards. The economic and environmental benefits are estimated by relating to the associated costing analysis in respect of the major contributing factors such as manufacturing, operational and financial factors. Results of the associated benefits analysis indicate that the use of the wind power generation helps to save a significant equivalent amount of standard coal consumption resulting to reduction of emission effectively. Finally, the potential of wind power development in China is shown to be affirmative and the sustainable energy policy is effectively implemented in China.
