Accelerating renewable energy power penetration is essential for carbon neutrality. Wind power curtailment remains critical yet mitigated recently in China. Among the key factors, local demand, exports, and power structure contribute the most to reducing wind power curtailment.
Most studies have focused on the dilemmas of pre-2016 wind power curtailments and provide qualitative analysis of the reasons for wind power curtailment, such as the instability of wind resources and excessive installations , weak inter-regional transmission [16, 17], insufficient power storage , and shortage of peak shaving capacity .
A key element of using energy storage to integrate renewable energy and reduce curtailment is identifying the timescales of storage needed—that is, the duration of energy storage capacity per unit of power capacity.
Simultaneously, the effective enforcement of the Energy Law can coordinate new power projects and optimize the entire power supply structure. Such evidence underpins the fact that the improvement in wind power curtailment during 2017–2019 will be more sustainable than the short progress during 2013–2014.
Inner Mongolia's case suggests that balancing wind and thermal power projects can be the key to deal with the curtailment issue, given its central position in national energy security and for supporting social employment stability. Power grid expansion helps but does not necessarily lead to increased external power transmission.
Among the key factors, local demand, exports, and power structure contribute the most to reducing wind power curtailment. The factor attribution pattern varies among regions and shows regional heterogeneity. Though improved, the curtailment challenge calls for sustainable power system structural reforms.
