Gudian energy storage project investment promotion

How to promote energy storage technology investment?

Therefore, increasing the technology innovation level, as indicated by unit benefit coefficient, can promote energy storage technology investment. On the other hand, reducing the unit investment cost can mainly increase the investment opportunity value.

What is the investment opportunity value of the second energy storage technology?

The investment opportunity value of the second energy storage technology is F1,2 (P). In State 2, the firm operates the second technology, which is adopted at time τ2, and the expected value of this energy storage technology is Φ 2 (P). Fig. 1. Single investment strategy under the deterministic policy. Fig. 2.

Should energy storage be invested in China's peaking auxiliary services?

Therefore, direct investment in future energy storage technologies is the best choice when new technologies are already available. At this stage, the investment threshold for energy storage to involvement in China's peaking auxiliary services is 0.1068 USD/kWh.

Are energy storage subsidy policies uncertain?

Subsidy policies for energy storage technologies are adjusted according to changes in market competition, technological progress, and other factors; thus, energy storage subsidy policies are uncertain. In this section, the investment decision of energy storage technology with different investment strategies under an uncertain policy is studied.

What is the expected value of a second energy storage technology?

The expected value of the first energy storage technology, including the embedded option, is Φ 1 (P). In State (1,2), the second energy storage technology arrives with a Poisson process, and the firm invests in the second technology at the optimal time. The investment opportunity value of the second energy storage technology is F1,2 (P).

Is there a realistic investment decision framework for energy storage technology?

Therefore, in order to provide a more realistic investment decisions framework for energy storage technology, this study develops a sequential investment decision model based on real options theory, which can consider policy, technological innovation, and market uncertainties.
