Because the coal storage ability of the silo can transform the electricity used by BC into the coal potential energy, which acts as a similar role with the traditional battery energy storage system. Hence, the BC, silo and train shown in Fig. 1 are constructed as a VES, whose input is the Q t and output is the Q train, t .
Unlike battery energy storage, the energy storage medium of UGES is sand, which means the self-discharge rate of the system is zero, enabling ultra-long energy storage times. Furthermore, the use of sand as storage media alleviates any risk for contaminating underground water resources as opposed to an underground pumped …
