However, most existing studies on the coordinated planning of energy storage and transmission lines are based on static planning. They implement a one-time planning process from the current state to the target year, failing to consider the gradual growth of load demand and renewable energy capacity.
Reference proposes a method to quantify the delay in new grid line capacity construction using distributed generation, including energy storage. Reference proposes a collaborative planning model for transmission networks and compressed air energy storage.
Scenario 2 utilizes a single transmission grid planning method as described in [14, 15], without considering energy storage planning. Scenario 3 presents the multi-stage coordinated planning of energy storage and transmission networks proposed in this paper, characterized as dynamic planning.
Grid alternative energy storage, as a non-wires alternative (NWA) solution, is coordinated with transmission network planning to improve transmission line utilization and increase new energy consumption capacity.
This highlights that the economic benefits of deploying energy storage in-crease significantly in systems where grid capacity is more constrained. However, this study still has some limitations.
In terms of the punishment for new energy curtailment, from Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that the multi-stage coordinated expansion planning scheme of transmission network and energy storage greatly reduces the system’s curtailment punishment costs compared with the single transmission network multi-stage planning scheme.
