2021年以来，能源规划、碳达峰行动方案、新型储能指导意见等多份政策文件中都强调了虚拟电厂的发展，北京、内蒙古、浙江等多地也将虚拟电厂写入其“十四五”能源发展规划。在中国的双碳目标下，发展虚拟电厂对于促进清洁能源消纳，实现电力系统安全运行等方面，具备重要意义。 我们根据中国电力行业结构和电力市场的发展情况，对虚拟电厂这项智能电网技术在中国的发展提出一些不成熟的建议，具体包括1）把虚拟电厂纳入电力投资规划；2）把虚拟电厂纳入电网投资规划；3）确定虚拟电厂参与电力市场的模式和规则；4）确保虚拟电厂得到合理和公平的经济价值补偿。… View Summary +
在应对气候变化和能源危机背景下，绿色低碳转型是实现全球经济与能源可持续发展的必要路径。分布式能源因具有清洁、低碳、且离负荷中心较近等优点，是以新能源为主体的新型电力系统的重要组成部分。在过去15年中，中国分布式能源政策不断演化和发展。根据近期政策，在2020到2025年期间，现行的政策支持逐步取消，分布式能源将逐渐转向市场导向和竞争模式。因此，“十四五”期间是分布式能源发展由补贴驱动转为市场驱动的重要转折期。 为进一步推动分布式新能源在中国的发展和利用，在这篇文章中，我们分析了分布式能源的经济价值，梳理了中国现有的分布式能源发展模型，并为其市场参与机制等方面提出一些建议。… View Summary +
近年来，随着煤电倒挂现象以及电力现货市场的快速发展，容量补偿机制已成为热门话题。睿博能源智库之前已探讨过稀缺电价相关问题，而本文与E3共同撰写，旨在简要介绍美国容量补偿机制的设计原则，并结合中国国情，提出在中国电力市场实施容量补偿机制的建议。这些建议包括： 1）容量补偿机制不应是必须的，而应该根据当地电力资源稀缺情况决定是否实施； 2）容量补偿机制应该基于科学稳健的资源充足性评估过程，避免补偿不必要的资源，并且不应保证所有资源的成本回收； 3）容量补偿机制应该平等对待所有资源，包括需求侧资源；以及 4）容量补偿机制应该采取绩效问责制，对在系统紧张时无法提供电力的资源予以惩罚。 本文（精简版）首刊于《南方能源观察》（2023年3月23日）… View Summary +
