Abstract: Wind farms have large fluctuations in grid connection, imbalance between supply and demand, etc. In order to solve the above problems, this paper studies the capacity optimization configuration of wind farm energy storage system based on full life cycle economic analysis.
Considering whole-life-cycle cost of the self-built energy storage, leasing and trading cost of the CES and penalty cost of wind abandonment and smooth power shortage, an optimal configuration model of combined energy storage capacity in wind farms based on CES service was established to minimize the total annual cost.
Considering the economic benefits of the combined wind-storage system and the promotion value of using energy storage to suppress wind power fluctuations, it is of great significance to study the optimal allocation of energy storage capacity for wind farms.
An optimal allocation model of energy storage capacity for combined wind-storage system is studied. With the maximum total system revenue as the objective function, the influencing factors and their sensitivities of the energy storage capacity allocation of the combined system are analyzed.
Wind farms can lease CES to suppress wind power fluctuations, which brings new problems of energy storage capacity configuration. Therefore, it is urgent to study the joint optimal configuration of leased CES capacity and self-built physical energy storage capacity.
Simultaneously, wind farms equipped with energy storage systems can improve the wind energy utilization even further by reducing rotary back-up . The combined operation of energy storage and wind power plays an important role in the power system's dispatching operation and wind power consumption .

The protection of GSM and base station towers from lightning and overvoltage is provided by integrating external lightning systems, internal lightning systems, earthing, equipotential bonding and LV surge arrester protection techniques within the framework of IEC-62305 standard.
The earthing network of an RBS should be formed by a ring loop surrounding the tower, equipment room and fence, at a minimum. The mean radius re of this ring loop should be not less than l1, as indicated in Figure 1 and this value depends on the lightning protection system (LPS) class and on the soil resistivity.
3.2.3 lightning protection system (LPS): Complete system used to reduce physical damage due to lightning flashes to a structure. NOTE – An LPS consists of both external and internal lightning protection system.
If the antenna is installed on the top of telecommunication tower, e.g., antenna positions 1 of Figure 29, it is considered to be impacted by or exposed to direct lightning strikes. Refer to [IEC 62305-3] for detail information about the protection angles and volume protected by an air termination system.
If the antenna is installed on the rooftop, e.g., antenna positions 2 of Figure 29, depending on the relative height of building and the installation of the antenna system, it may be considered to be inherently protected from direct lightning strikes or be impacted by or exposed to direct lightning strikes.
Figure 12 shows protection of the navigation light system in the equipment room. If the NL has internal control circuits or it is based on LED technology, then an SPD is required on the top of the tower to protect the lamp. This SPD can be integrated into the lamp box.
The most important objective of the radio base station (RBS) earthing network is to minimize the differences in potential between the conductive parts within the RBS site (equipotential bonding), which is beneficial for the safety, lightning protection and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) performance of the equipment.

In 2009, the largest producer of wind power in Spain was Iberdrola, with 25.5% of capacity, followed by Acciona with 20.9% and NEO Energia (EDP Renewables) with 8.3%.
On specific occasions, the contribution of wind power in Spain reached 50% of the total electricity demand, indicating the sector's capacity to meet a substantial portion of the country's energy needs. *Includes 11 MW of Wind-Hydro hybrid system and associated generation of 1 GWh in 2014, 9 GWh in 2015.
Wind power is an important energy source in Spain because the Spanish government has sanctioned a green energy approach to guarantee an increase in the country's wind generation capacity, with aspirations to produce 2.1GW of wind power by 2010.
Three factors may influence the further progress of wind power development in Spain: the capability of the wind farms network to hold all the electricity harnessed by wind power, predominantly in off-peak times, the cost of energy, and the environmental effect that the abundance of wind farm development in Spain could turn out.
Modern wind turbines are designed to last 20 years and with proper monitoring and preventative maintenance two to three times per year (increasing with frequency as the turbine ages) their lifetime can be extended to 25 years.
On average, the expected service life of a wind turbine is approximately 25 years, but this doesn't mean that each component is meant to last for 25 years. There are several ways to extend the lifespan of wind turbines. High-quality materials and an aerodynamic design are important for maximising the energy capacity of turbines.
What Factors Determine a Wind Turbine's Life? Modern wind turbines are designed to last 20 years and with proper monitoring and preventative maintenance two to three times per year (increasing with frequency as the turbine ages) their lifetime can be extended to 25 years .
The life cycle of a wind turbine comprises several stages, including design and planning, component manufacture, transport and logistics, installation and commissioning, operation and maintenance, and finally dismantling and recycling.
At the end of their service life, wind turbines are dismantled and their components recycled or recovered. This stage generates CO2 emissions and waste, but it also recovers materials and limits the overall environmental impact of the wind turbine's life cycle.
Advancements in technology have contributed to increasing the optimal lifespan of wind turbines. Improved materials, such as carbon fiber composites, have enhanced the structural integrity and resistance to fatigue.
This lifetime value is a comprehensive measure that captures the total revenue generated from electricity produced by a turbine minus its total life-cycle costs, including wind turbine production, installation, operation, maintenance and end-of-life costs.

Wind energy is random, intermittent and unstable, so the output power of wind turbine is usually fluctuating. The existence of these factors will have a certain. If a fault occurs in the power system, after the relay protection action removes the fault, the power generation system is still working, which will lead to islanding. The main problems caused by wind power grid connection are voltage and current stability. Due to the irregular distribution of wind energy and resources, wind.
During normal operation, each variable-speed wind turbine in a field controls its active power and reactive power by itself. However, in case of an emergency, instructions are provided by the grid dispatcher to control the power output of the entire wind farm.
According to the instructions of the power grid dispatching department, the wind farm automatically adjusts its sent (or absorbing) reactive power to realize voltage control at the grid connection point. Its regulation speed and control accuracy should meet the requirements of the power grid voltage regulation.
For analyzing the grid impact of a wind farm connection at (exemplary) 120kV, the following main aspects have to be studied: Each of these aspects requires different types of studies and modelling approaches. In a first step, it is required to verify that the existing network capacity is able to take the additionally generated power.
