Energy storage peak and valley electricity prices

4 FAQs about Energy storage peak and valley electricity prices

How do C&I energy storage projects benefit from Peak-Valley arbitrage?

C&I energy storage projects in China mainly profit from peak-valley arbitrage while reducing demand charges by monitoring the inverters' power output in real time to prevent transformers of industrial parks from exceeding their capacity limits.

Is peaking capacity a potential market for energy storage?

Peaking capacity represents a much larger potential market for energy storage. Peaking capacity historically has been provided by a combination of simple-cycle gas turbines, gas- and oil-fired steam plants, and reciprocating engines using gas or liquid fuels (FERC 2015).

Why is the C&I energy storage sector growing?

Since July, as the country experienced peak electricity demand, more and more provinces have varied electricity charges for different seasons, expanding the peak-to-valley spread and fostering growth in the C&I energy storage sector.

How long does a C&I energy storage take to pay back?

Results of the assessment are as follows. As shown in the chart below, given a peak-to-valley spread as high as RMB 1.2/kWh, a C&I energy storage with one charge-discharge cycle a day in the five cities will need a payback period of eight to nine years.
