Abstract

During the heating period in Northeast China, the electricity generated by Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants has caused a large amount of wind power curtailment. To avoid this curtailment, Heat Storages (HS) and Electric Boilers (EB) are being widely applied to CHP plants. However, the effectiveness of HS and EB on the curtailment of wind power has still not been well evaluated. This paper proposes a new evaluation method consisting of an operation boundary model and an internal coordinated operation model for each flexible CHP plant with HS and EB. Then a system power balance model based on hour-by-hour analysis is established to determine the wind power integration, down-regulation subsidy and the utilization degree of the flexible equipment. The models are validated by using field measured data of a province in China. The results show that the capacity change of the EB has a bigger impact on the down-regulation subsidy than that of the HS, while the EB is more effective when the level of wind power integration is high.
