面向商业灵活需求的储能导向电价是否应扩展适用?
Should Storage-Centric Tariffs be Extended to Commercial Flexible Demand?
AI总结:
本文研究将储能导向电价扩展至商业灵活需求的效果,发现可降低高峰净需求爬坡速率,并在高灵活性下减少峰值负荷与电费。
摘要:
经济的进一步电气化预计将加剧爬坡速率并增加峰值负荷。需求侧的灵活性(新技术可能促进其实现)有助于应对这些运行挑战。电力公司已开始实施新的电价机制及其他措施,以鼓励储能部署。本文考察了将这些新电价机制设为技术中立并将其扩展至灵活需求是否会显著改善运行灵活性的采购。具体而言,我们考虑当商业用户面临太平洋燃气与电力公司的储能导向电价时,其如何调整灵活需求。我们表明,将该电价扩展至具有灵活需求的用户将降低公用事业在高峰时段的净需求爬坡速率。若用户具有较高水平的需求灵活性,与基础电价相比,该电价还能降低高峰时段的净需求,并减少总电费。
英文摘要:
Further electrification of the economy is expected to sharpen ramp rates and increase peak loads. Flexibility from the demand side, which new technologies might facilitate, can help these operational challenges. Electric utilities have begun implementing new tariffs and other mechanisms to encourage the deployment of energy storage. This paper examines whether making these new tariffs technology agnostic and extending them to flexible demand would significantly improve the procurement of operational flexibility. In particular, we consider how a commercial consumer might adjust its flexible demand when subject to Pacific Gas and Electric Company's storage-centric electric tariff. We show that extending this tariff to consumers with flexible demand would reduce the utility's net demand ramp rates during peak hours. If consumers have a high level of demand flexibility, this tariff also reduces the net demand during peak hours and decreases total electric bills when compared to the base tariff.
