Chapter 2550 Peak and Valley Energy Storage Power Station
As the time enters July, the entire Anxi is also shrouded in scorching high temperatures. Although this has not yet set in, the meteorological department has issued high temperature warnings for several days in succession.
The entire city was like a furnace, and the municipal department also arranged for dozens of unmanned sprinkler trucks to start spraying water continuously to reduce the fever in the entire city.
The same is true for the entire Haoyu Science and Technology Park. Although it is close to Linghu Wetland Park and has a large wetland that can play a cooling role, it is still hot outside. The sprinkler system in the park is also working non-stop.
Even the water level of the artificial lake has evaporated due to the continuous high temperature of the sun, and has dropped seriously, so it had to be replenished urgently.
Thanks to the company's water circulation temperature control system, the temperature in the office building is very suitable, only 24 degrees Celsius. And unlike the cold air from the air conditioner, the water circulation cooling can make the entire temperature extremely gentle and pleasant.
Many times employees will put on a coat during breaks to prevent colds caused by low temperatures.
However, this situation did not last long, because the water level in the artificial lake decreased due to the heat, and the continuous high temperature was also conducive to the cooling of the lake water. Therefore, the water temperature in the pipe was not low enough, and could only be cooled down through the refrigeration system.
However, due to the persistent heat, the electricity consumption in the entire Anxi region has soared, causing the entire power system to have a tight supply. In order to ensure the safety of electricity consumption for the people of Anxi, according to the arrangements agreed by the Anxi local government, all enterprises in Anxi will begin to limit power supply.
electricity to ensure the normal conduct of people's lives.
Logically speaking, key enterprises like Haoyu Technology are also one of the key enterprises in Anxi. So even if power is restricted in other places, they will not limit power here.
However, Wu Hao didn't want to do this special thing, so he naturally started to limit power supply to the entire company campus with everyone. In addition to necessary departments, such as Torch Building, Abyss, and other important institutional nodes to ensure their stable operation, other units
All have started to limit power supply. For example, they have raised the indoor temperature and turned off unnecessary electrical appliances. Some departments have also taken turns to take vacations to save electricity to the greatest extent.
Although the shortcomings this time are serious, fortunately there is local care. In addition, there is an emergency power supply system underground in the park, so these important departments and important equipment nodes of the company can operate stably at this stage.
In fact, the shortage of electricity mainly occurs during the peak period of electricity consumption, that is, during the day and at night. Basically, after 10 o'clock in the evening, electricity consumption will gradually decrease.
At this time, it’s time for peak and valley energy storage power stations to show their talents. There are many types of peak and valley energy storage power stations, and currently there are three types that are used on a large scale.
One is the water conservancy energy storage power station that we often see on TV news, which uses the principle of hydropower generation to store electrical energy.
To put it simply, it is to build a reservoir on the mountain. The reservoir is connected to two pipes, one is the inlet pipe for pumping water into the Wang Reservoir, and the other is the drainage pipe for the reservoir to discharge water down the mountain.
At one end of the pumping pipe that pumps water to the reservoir, a pumping station is built to pump water from the mountain reservoir or river to the mountain reservoir.
Build a hydropower station at the end of the drainage pipe that discharges water from the reservoir. In this way, when the reservoir drains water, the water energy will directly drive the turbine of the hydropower station to rotate, thereby driving the generator to generate electricity.
Usually when electricity consumption is low, that is, in some low periods of electricity consumption, such as spring and autumn, when the weather is more suitable, or in the early hours of the night, there is not much demand for domestic and industrial electricity. However, those who generate electricity
Stations, especially hydropower stations, are still generating electricity, and the electricity generated is difficult to store, so it can only be wasted.
In addition to hydropower stations, there are also solar power stations, wind power stations, tidal power stations, etc. Their power generation is affected by natural conditions, and the power generation is inconsistent and unstable.
At this time, this kind of peak-valley energy storage hydropower station comes into play. It will use the excess electricity to pump water to the reservoir to store energy. Then during the day or during the peak period of electricity consumption, the reservoir will release the previously pumped water. These
The water will drive the generator to generate electricity, and then supply electricity to the power grid, thereby increasing the power generation to meet the production and living needs of the people.
The second type is the thermal energy storage power station. This kind of thermal energy storage power station actually works on the same principle as the water energy storage power station, which is to store energy and generate electricity. However, the water energy storage power station uses water to store energy and generate electricity.
Thermal energy storage power stations use stored heat to generate electricity.
To put it simply, it uses electricity to heat some objects or media. These objects and media can be water, molten salt, or air. No matter which method is used, their power generation is the same, that is, it changes
Proceed to heat hot water.
Just like those thermal power plants and nuclear power plants, thermal energy is used to boil water, and then the water vapor is used to blow the steam turbine, which drives the generator to generate electricity. The thermal energy storage power station uses such a principle, but it is relatively
Compared with water energy peak and valley energy storage power stations, thermal energy peak and valley energy storage power stations are not so widely used. After all, the technology is difficult and the energy-to-electricity conversion rate is low. It is still being explored and is not mature enough.
The third type is a large-scale battery peak and valley energy storage power station based on Haoyu Technology's super industrial solid-state battery technology.
Its principle is simpler, that is, it uses the battery to store excess electricity, and then uses it when needed. The principle is simple and the energy-to-electricity conversion rate is high. But it has big problems. Currently, this
Except for Haoyu Technology, few companies have carried out large-scale battery peak and valley energy storage power stations.
The biggest problem is the high cost. The price of batteries is too high, which makes building a large-scale battery peak and valley energy storage power station very low-cost and very uneconomical. In addition, these batteries have a long service life, so it is not cost-effective in comprehensive calculation. Naturally
So no one does it.
The reason why Haoyu Technology dares to do it is naturally for super industrial solid-state battery technology. This super industrial solid-state battery technology reduces the manufacturing cost of large-scale industrial super solid-state batteries to an acceptable range. In addition, this super industrial solid-state battery technology
The manufacturing process of industrial solid-state batteries is relatively simple and suitable for large-scale production. These super industrial solid-state batteries produced have stable structures, are suitable for long-term use, and have a long life.
Even if these batteries reach the end of their life, they can be recycled and reused, so they are very economical and environmentally friendly. Therefore, thanks to this technology, Haoyu Technology has invested in the construction of multiple large-scale super battery peak and valley energy storage power stations.
