Why is the energy storage industry growing so fast?

In the backdrop of the global pattern of change, the promotion and development of the energy storage industry has high-profile. Now, whether photovoltaic, wind power, hydro power or other renewable energy, a traditional distributed energy grid or internal combustion engine, have unprecedented strength and enthusiasm, and actively embrace energy storage technology, business model innovation and industrialization application. Capital, technology, equipment and the flow of talent are worldwide. Energy storage industry is becoming an energy transformation and international highlights. Some call it the energy change of a strategic hub.

If power battery technological innovation is the core of the new energy automobile industry development, the energy storage technology innovation will become the new focus of efficient utilization of clean energy.

Now energy storage industry, whether it is li-ion battery, lead acid, lead, carbon, vanadium titanium liquid flow, compressed air energy storage, or drainage ion energy storage, such as rapid progress in technological innovation, continuously improve industrial chain, specific energy density, ring, security, improving service life, reduce costs, and the application prospect of seems to be expanded.

But these mean that the future development of energy storage industry? The answer is no. Now, everyone on the government to force energy storage subsidy policy is full of expectation, hope the government to power battery strong policy support and energy storage field. So far, however, still did not get as photovoltaic, wind energy storage industry of the national industrial policy support.

Looking forward to policy "east wind"

I was with some leading energy storage enterprises and visited the relevant competent department of energy, energy demonstration projects in the future development direction. Many entrepreneurs are also looking forward to, that is, as soon as possible to gain energy storage project policy support.

This year, the Qinghai province introduced a new power and wind power energy storage facilities, policies and measures, but this question: who pay for the high cost of energy storage system?

At present, in order to promote energy transformation, the relevant government departments issued increment distribution network energy demonstration projects and demonstration projects of the network, the Internet demonstration projects, pluripotent complementary demonstration projects, etc., are put forward for energy storage industry supporting principle request, but in practice, storage project still did not get the corresponding subsidy policy support.

In the research, we found that many entrepreneurs are identical in our views, namely wind power, photovoltaic project in the plan is to earn money, but the cost of storage project of form a complete set too high, but calculation, not to earn money. In the face of such situation, we also consulted some international partners. At the same time, they say, this kind of situation, so in China, the same is true in the world.

Energy storage industry development prospects? In the system and the solution for business model innovation under the premise of energy storage industry prospect, but the present into a single project calculation, the cost is too high. The emergence of this situation is determined by the basic characteristics of energy storage industry.

Whether power battery, or energy storage battery value industry on the one hand, it is very big, but its value is subject to the restriction of related supporting industries, such as power battery industry value because of the influence of the electric car industry development, battery energy storage industry value from the net, the influence of the grid and load demand.

In the field of power battery, BYD, Ningde Hin high-tech era, countries, Walter horse, and other enterprises, to strengthen the traditional market advantage, on the basis of lithium iron phosphate ternary battery layout, the goal is through value play to realize the value of the power battery electric vehicle industry.

Zhuhai silver lung, of course, by overseas mergers and acquisitions, based on the traditional li-ion battery material system of the positive system towards negative cross created greater value, make the enterprise value has improved.

For battery energy storage industry, the past for energy storage industry development main off-grid applications, supplement the insufficient power grid function at the same time, in improving the power control technology on the basis of the whole create value.

The new trend of the consumption to open ""

Nowadays, people's way of thinking is changing. Grid operators paid attention to the application of battery energy storage, energy storage industry to participate in power grid peak shaving, the construction of a high, sun power and even develop energy storage inverters, storage converter to improve the weakness in the field of renewable energy power generation. SMW power, SAN Yang power companies out of the lead-acid battery, such as Dalian melting positive development of vanadium titanium flow battery, hope in the power grid peak clipping in valley, under the positive role of distribution power grid peak shaving market.

However, energy storage batteries are used. In Zhangjiakou, Hebei province is located in Zhangbei county of wind power, photovoltaic power generation, energy storage, smart electricity transmission in a body's comprehensive utilization of new energy platform, namely national scenery storage demonstration project has been built.

The focus of this project is to use wind power to supplement the energy storage system, solar power, and equipped with energy storage batteries, given conditions, to improve the power grid to create conditions for renewable energy mass given.

In Australia, Ergon energy companies have installed 20 in Queensland 100 KWH battery energy storage device.In Germany, is located in Berlin Adler, hoff, yonex companies in the technology center is equipped with can provide 1 mw and 6 mw of high-energy sodium sulfur battery system;200 kilowatts of efficient lithium battery system; Mw level intelligent transformation system, as well as 1 mw of energy storage battery diesel generator system, etc.

Based on the technology innovation, the energy storage projects have changed. Even without subsidies, battery energy storage has also cheaper than conventional installation pole, pull grid. Is expected in the next few years, a similar battery energy storage device would be a lot of the installation.

In addition to the supply side, of course, is widely used, has begun to expand the use of battery energy storage in the consumer end. Battery energy storage is more noticeable on the consumption side economic value, such as it can help users reduce the purchasing power electricity during peak, help users to save electricity, etc. At the dock, storage, mining, industrial buildings, residential and pasture, user using photovoltaic (pv) + energy storage and wind-light + energy storage arrays with battery energy storage system mode is becoming the "new wave" of power system.
