Porto Novo LNG emergency peak-shaving energy storage project

Can LNG be used for peak shaving?

However, even with the advantages of flexibility and quick turnover, small footprint, short construction period, and emergency peak shaving capability, LNG can only be used for daily or weekly peak-shaving, not on a long-term basis [ 18, 19 ].

Which terminal is used for natural gas peak shaving?

LNG terminal is also adopted for natural gas peak shaving, in which natural gas is cooled to 111 K under atmospheric pressure, with natural gas transforming from gas to liquid and reducing its volume by about 620 times [ 17 ].

Does es capacity enhance peak shaving and frequency regulation capacity?

However, the demand for ES capacity to enhance the peak shaving and frequency regulation capability of power systems with high penetration of RE has not been clarified at present. In this context, this study provides an approach to analyzing the ES demand capacity for peak shaving and frequency regulation.

Can a novel peak-shaving process of LNG-sourced natural gas use NGH as a medium?

On this account, the novel peak-shaving process of LNG-sourced natural gas with NGH as the medium is proposed for the first time in this work, which can integrate the advantages of large-scale and long-period gas storage of NGH with the flexibility of LNG, and can also efficiently utilize the cold energy from LNG regasification.

Can LNG-sourced natural gas peak-shaving reduce energy consumption?

The finding shows good feasibility of LNG-sourced natural gas peak-shaving with gas hydrates as a novel method in the natural gas peak-shaving area, which therefore can effectively address the issue of natural gas peak-shaving with lower energy consumption.

What is LNG storage capacity?

LNG storage capacity of 4 billion standard cubic feet of gas (187,000 m3 liquid) and sendout capacity of 400 MMSCFD (11,320 103Sm3/d). Satellite facilities with sendout capacity up to 150 MMSCFD (4,245 103Sm3/d) have also been successfully built to meet local needs.
