What is a new energy cooperation framework for energy storage and prosumers?

A novel energy cooperation framework for energy storage and prosumers is proposed. A bi-level energy trading model considering the network constraints is presented. A profit-sharing mechanism is designed with the asymmetric Nash bargaining model. The adaptive alternating direction method of multipliers is applied efficiently.

How do we integrate storage sharing into the design phase of energy systems?

We adopt a cooperative game approach to incorporate storage sharing into the design phase of energy systems. To ensure a fair distribution of cooperative benefits, we introduce a benefit allocation mechanism based on contributions to energy storage sharing.

Why is storage sharing important in energy systems?

By incorporating storage sharing into the design phase of energy systems, we can achieve a more balanced and efficient distribution of storage capacity. This leads to a reduction in energy waste and improves the overall performance of the energy system.

What is a two-stage model for energy storage sharing?

For example, formulated a two-stage model for energy storage sharing between CESSs and prosumers, where CESSs decide the price of virtual storage capacity in the first stage and prosumers decide the capacities and charging/discharging power in the second stage.

How does the energy cooperation platform work?

The energy cooperation platform only reports the equivalent load p i, t c p of bus i to DSO. In the upper level, DSO checks the network operation according to the optimal power profiles from the lower level.

What is shared energy storage?

Shared energy storage embodies sharing economy principles within the storage industry. This approach allows storage facilities to monetize unused capacity by offering it to users, generating additional revenue for providers, and supporting renewable energy prosumers’ growth.
