摘要
长期以来,化石燃料发电对环境造成了负面影响。如今,随着可再生能源投资的不断增加,发电模式正在发生转变。尽管取得了这一进展,但高效的能源储存仍然有限。面对这一挑战,抽水蓄能技术不失为可行的解决方案之一。这包括通过向高处的水库抽水来储存重力能,然后利用涡轮机将重力能转化为电能。本文研究了供水系统(WSS)中水泵水力蓄能系统(PHS)的运行情况,旨在最大限度地降低运行成本并评估其有效性。用水泵即涡轮机(PAT)取代传统水泵提供了一种灵活且经济高效的方法。所提出的方法旨在考虑动态能源价格,优化这些 PAT 的运行。所开发的计算模型适用于不同的运行方案,并从成本效益的角度进行了分析。结果表明,按时间区分的购买电价和固定销售电价之间的平均比率越低,使用 PAT 的优化潜力就越大。在所分析的供水系统案例研究中,能源成本降低了 43.4%-68.1%,证明了 PHS 在供水系统中的有效性,尤其是在能源费率变化较大的情况下。
On the operational optimization of pump storage systems in water supply systems using PATs and time-differentiated energy prices
Power generation from fossil fuels has long had a negative impact on the environment. Nowadays, a paradigm shift in power generation is being witnessed, with increasing investment in renewable energy sources. Despite this progress, efficient energy storage is still limited. Given this challenge, pumped storage technology can be one of the viable solutions. This involves storing gravitational energy by pumping water into a reservoir at a higher altitude, which is later converted into electrical energy using a turbine. This paper studies a pump hydro storage system (PHS) operation in water supply systems (WSSs), with the aim of minimizing operating costs and evaluating its effectiveness. Replacing conventional pumps with pump-as-turbines (PATs) provides a flexible and cost-effective approach. The proposed methodology aims to optimize the operation of these PATs considering dynamic energy prices. The developed computational model was applied to different operational scenarios and analyzed in terms of cost-effectiveness. The results show that the lower the average ratio between time-differentiated purchase and fixed sell energy tariffs, the greater the optimization potential of using PAT. In the WSS case study analyzed, energy cost reductions of 43.4–68.1% were achieved, demonstrating the effectiveness of PHS in WSS particularly for energy tariffs with large variations.
