Energy storage policy china southern power grid

How many kilowatts will China Southern power grid put into operation?

According to the white paper, during the "14th five year plan" and "15th five year plan", China Southern Power Grid will put into operation 5 million kilowatts and 15 million kilowatts of pumped storage respectively, and put into operation 20 million kilowatts of new energy storage respectively.

What is China Southern power grid?

Not only industrial users. China Southern Power Grid encourages all kinds of power market entities to tap peak shifting resources, and guides non-productive air conditioning loads, industrial loads, charging facilities, user side energy storage and other flexible loads to actively participate in demand response.

Why is China Southern power grid developing a trading mechanism?

China Southern Power Grid is developing a trading mechanism to adapt to the participation of emerging market entities such as pumped storage, new energy storage and virtual power plants, designing flexible and diversified market demand response trading modes, and promoting the market construction of demand response in five southern provinces.

Can China decarbonize the southern power grid by 2060?

Decarbonization of the Southern Power Grid in China is feasible by 2060 but requires converting a large cropland area to support solar and wind energy; expansion of hydropower will impact the transboundary rivers according to a power system optimization model set up for 2020–2060.

Should Guangxi support solar and wind plants?

First, the deployment of solar and wind plants reflects the geographical distribution of these resources, but may also lead to unfair land use requirements; in this specific case, the sole province of Guangxi should support 43% of the total land requirements across the CSPG (Table S4).
