The capacity configuration optimization of the multi-energy complementary system is the foundation of system development. Improving the utilization rate of renewable energy, meeting the reliability requirements of the system, and increasing the system economy are the objectives of capacity configuration.
However, wind and photovoltaic power generation are greatly affected by the natural conditions, which leads to the obvious fluctuation and intermittence of output power. Thus, battery is widely used in multi-energy complementary system, but there are also problems such as environmental pollution and low life.
Three different application scenarios are analyzed in both the off-grid and grid-connected situations, where the energy storage system contains only battery, only hydrogen, and the hybrid with hydrogen and battery.
