For renewable energy plants, the new model of shared energy storage delivers optimal benefits through intensive investment and ensures smooth connection with the grid. It fits the State Grid's goal to build hub-like platforms with shared operations.
According to the plan, Phase I includes 32/64MWh energy storage stations that will be connected with the local grid, which can effectively prevent local new-energy plants from abandoning solar and wind power.
