Energy flow in distribution systems. Figure 2 depicts the overall flowchart of optimizing energy storage planning, divided into four steps. Firstly, obtain the historical operational data of the system, including wind power, solar power, and load data for all 8760 h of the year.
To address the complexities arising from the coupling of different time scales in optimizing energy storage capacity, this paper proposes a method for energy storage planning that accounts for power imbalance risks across multiple time scales.
It is crucial to integrate energy storage devices within wind power and photovoltaic (PV) stations to effectively manage the impact of large-scale renewable energy generation on power balance and grid reliability. However, existing studies have not modelled the complex coupling between different types of power sources within a station.
Energy storage predominantly occurs through hydrogen storage and electrochemical energy storage, while energy is consumed across various types of electrical load demand systems. Figure 1.

The rising share of RESs in power generation poses potential challenges, including uncertainties in generation output, frequency fluctuations, and insufficient voltage regulation capabilities. As a solution to these challenges, energy storage systems (ESSs) play a crucial role in storing and releasing power as needed.
