Guangdong Robust energy storage support policy: user-side energy storage peak-valley price gap widened, scenery project 10%·1h storage

On June 5, the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Guangdong Provincial Energy Bureau issued Measures to Promote the Development of New Energy Storage Power Stations in Guangdong Province, which mainly proposed 25 measures from five aspects: expanding diversified applications, strengthening policy support, improving operation scheduling mechanism, standardizing project construction management, and strengthening coordination guarantee. To promote the integration of new energy generation with new energy storage, offshore wind power projects, centralized photovoltaic power stations, and onshore centralized wind power projects must be equipped with new energy storage facilities that are no less than 10% of the installed capacity and have a duration of 1 hour. User-side energy storage projects that utilize products recognized as meeting advanced and high-quality product standards shall be charged electricity prices based on the province-wide cool storage electricity price policy (i.e., the peak-valley ratio will be adjusted from 1.7:1:0.38 to 1.65:1:0.25, and the peak-valley price differential ratio will be adjusted from 4.47 times to 6.6 times).
