The demonstration project for the transformation of peak load regulation flexibility through extracting steam and molten salt heat storage at the Hebei Longshan Power Plant of CHN Energy Investment Group (CHN Energy) started construction recently.
This allows the units to meet the needs of grid load regulation and make room for new energy power generation. When the power grid is at peak load, the heat stored in the heat storage system during the load regulation can be released to increase the peak load capacity of the power generation units.
Upon completion, the plant's unit peak load regulation capacity will increase by 100 MW, for up to four hours; the peak load capacity will be increased by 47 MW, and the heat release time will be no less than six hours.
The multi-steam source energy storage mode is proposed based on the heat transfer characteristics of molten salt. Compared to the single steam source storage mode, the multi-steam source configuration demonstrates higher heat storage and thermal efficiency while maintaining the same peak shaving capacity during the storage phase.
In the single steam source heating storage strategy, a portion of the live steam enters the preheater and heat exchanger, facilitating sensible heat exchange with cold molten salt. This process converts the cold molten salt into hot molten salt, which exhibits improved liquidity following heat exchange.
A new thermal power unit peaking system coupled with thermal energy storage and steam ejector was proposed, which is proved to be technically and economically feasible based on the simulation of a 600 MW thermal power unit.
