The configuration of energy storage in the integrated energy system (IES) can effectively improve the consumption rate of renewable energy and the flexibility of system operation. Due to the high cost and long cycle of the physical energy storage construction, the configuration of energy storage is limited. The dynamic characteristics of the heating network and the demand-side
Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time [1] to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production. A device that stores energy is generally called an accumulator or battery. Energy comes in multiple forms including radiation, chemical, gravitational potential, electrical potential, electricity, elevated temperature, latent
In general, there are two types of energy storage: utility-scale massive energy storage and the application-related distributed energy storage. Pumped hydro storage (PHS) is based on pumping water from a lower reservoir to another at a higher elevation at low-demand period. An example of such PHS system is the Nant de Drance plant in Switzerland, officially
