电力存储被认为是一种有价值的灵活性来源，其应用涵盖整个电力价值链。大多数现有的储能评估方法都是针对储能的一种特定用途来考虑的，这往往会导致储能投资没有回报的结论。然而，如果不考虑将存储可以提供给不同参与者的服务聚合在一起的可能性，就无法正确估计存储的价值。本文提出了一种新的商业模式，允许以系统的方式聚合多个电力存储收入流。该模式包括协调一系列拍卖，在不同的时间范围内拍卖存储单元的使用权。同时，在这些不同的拍卖中，参与者对存储的使用是不冲突的。通过一个案例研究证明了该模型的功能。结果表明，采用该商业模式，存储单元可以获得较高的投资回报。
Electricity storage is considered as a valuable source of flexibility with applications covering the whole electricity value chain. Most of the existing evaluation methods for electricity storage are conceived for one specific use of the storage, which often leads to the conclusion that the investment on storage does not pay off. However, the value of storage cannot be properly estimated without taking into account the possibility of aggregating the services that storage can offer to different actors. This paper proposes a new business model that allows aggregating multiple revenue streams of electricity storage in a systematic way. The model consists in coordinating a series of auctions in which the right to utilize the storage unit is auctioned upon different time horizons. In the mean time, non-conflicting usage of storage by the actors in these different auctions is ensured. The functioning of the model is demonstrated by a case study. The results show that a storage unit can achieve higher return on investment in the manner proposed in the business model.
