Design and Performance Analysis of a Thermal Energy Storage System With Steam Extraction and Electric Heating in a Coal‐Fired Power Plant

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To alleviate the impact of the instability of renewable energy power generation on the power grid, coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) have to undertake peak shaving tasks, which puts forward high requirements for the flexibility of CFPPs. To enhance the flexibility of CFPPs to consume more renewable energy, this paper innovatively proposes a ...
