Zhang H., Zhao J., 2016, Joint Peak Shaving Energy Consumption Optimization Model and Simulation Analysis of Pumped Storage Power Unit and Coal-fired Power Units, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 51, 1279-1284.
The regional power grid is mainly a thermal power system, so it is hard to meet increasing the need of difference between peak and valley loads and the demand of peak-load regulation. Units peaking mode directly related to the peaking economy, which becomes a serious problem. In this paper, from the perspective of optimization. Comprehensive consideration of pumped storage power units capacity and the factors influencing the load time, the optimization of load distribution for pumped storage power units and coal-fired power units, peak shaving modes was analyzed and the corresponding economic model was constructed. The application indicates that the best method of pumped storage power units and coal-fired power units. Pumped storage power units with 300 MW coal-fired power units with two-shift is the most obvious way to coal saving benefit. It provides a reference for energy-saving dispatching.
