Abstract:

A comprehensive energy system was developed for a large office building in north China using a photovoltaic power generator, an iron-chromium liquid flow battery, a heat pump, and water energy storage. The annual hourly energy consumption and benefit analysis of the energy system are conducted by compiling calculation programs, optimizing algorithms, and other processing methods. Economic indicators, such as the initial investment, annual energy consumption, operating cost, energy conservation rate, and life cycle cost (LCC), are used to evaluate the system's economics and design. The results indicate that the multiple energy source system has better energy conservation and economics. The optimized storage tank volume is 920 m3 with 14 heat pumps and an LCC of 13.4708 million yuan. The iron-chromium liquid flow battery stored power and heat, while the water energy storage system was used for heating and cooling storage, resulting in an annual average photovoltaic power consumption of 65.3%. At this cooling and heating load supply level, an energy storage supply of more than 67% was achieved from the total cooling and heating energy supply, of which 100% was acquired in March, September, and November.

Key words: liquid flow battery, comprehensive energy, energy storage, benefit analysis
