FAQS about Energy storage investment and construction projects
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.
How to choose the best energy storage investment scheme?
By solving for the investment threshold and investment opportunity value under various uncertainties and different strategies, the optimal investment scheme can be obtained. Finally, to verify the validity of the model, it is applied to investment decisions for energy storage participation in China's peaking auxiliary service market.
What is a continuous investment strategy for energy storage technologies?
For current energy storage technologies, the continuous strategy can significantly shorten the investment timing and enable investors to adopt the storage technology as early as possible; therefore, when new technologies are unavailable, the continuous investment strategy is the best choice.
What is the investment opportunity value of energy storage technology?
A firm choosing to invest in energy storage technology is equivalent to executing the value of the investment option . In this study, the investment opportunity value of an energy storage technology is denoted by F (P), that is, the maximum expected net present value when a firm invests in an energy storage technology.
Is energy storage a good investment strategy?
However, for new technologies, the investment cost is lower and the benefit is higher, which has a better investment value than the current energy storage technologies. Additionally, the investment threshold is significantly lower under the single strategy than it is under the continuous strategy.
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.
