3 FAQs about Bahamas grid-side energy storage peak-valley arbitrage profit model

How does Bess generate revenue from electricity price arbitrage and reserve service?

It generates revenue though electricity price arbitrage and reserve service. The BESS's optimization model and the charging-discharging operation control strategy are established to make maximum revenue. The simulation study is based on one-year data of wind speed, irradiance, and electricity price in Hangzhou City (Zhejiang Province, China).

What is a Bess optimization model for electricity price arbitrage and reserve ancillary services?

Taking the maximum annual net revenues of the BESS as the optimization objective, an optimization model of the BESS considering both electricity price arbitrage and reserve ancillary services is established. The annual net revenues of the BESS under different BESS capacities are evaluated.

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.
