The economic evaluation of small and medium-sized pumped storage power stations is an important means to evaluate the construction and operation costs of power stations. Economic evaluation includes the evaluation of investment cost, operation cost and economic benefit of power station.
Therefore, on the basis of conventional small hydropower, the transformation into a small pumped storage power station or joint operation with pumped storage can reduce the cost, shorten the construction period, solve the problem of site selection, improve the power station output in the dry season, and increase the economic benefits.
Small and medium-sized pumped storage power stations have unique development advantages, and the development and construction of small and medium-sized pumped storage power stations have important practical significance for optimizing the energy structure of Zhejiang Province.
The existing literature shows that pumped storage power stations can maximize the power balance of regional power grid, ensure the safe and stable operation of regional power grid, and realize the economic optimization of power grid operation through reasonable modeling and new energy distribution schemes.
In 2021, the National Energy Administration made it clear in the Medium and Long Term Development Plan for Pumped Storage (2021–2035) that the construction of small and medium-sized pumped storage power stations should be planned according to local conditions in provinces with better resources.
At present, China's pumped storage power stations mainly have three pricing mechanisms: single capacity price, single electricity price and two-part price .
