📄 摘要（原文）
Energy storage and electrification of buildings hold great potential for future decarbonized energy systems. However, there are several technical and economic barriers that prevent large-scale adoption and integration of energy storage in buildings. These barriers include integration with building control systems, high capital costs, and the necessity to identify and quantify value streams for different stakeholders. To overcome these obstacles, it is crucial to develop advanced sizing and dispatch methods to assist planning and operational decision-making for integrating energy storage in buildings. This work develops a simple and flexible optimal sizing and dispatch framework for thermal energy storage (TES) and battery energy storage (BES) systems in large-scale office buildings. The optimal sizes of TES, BES, as well as other building assets are determined in a joint manner instead of sequentially to avoid sub-optimal solutions. The solution is determined considering both capital costs in optimal sizing and operational benefits in optimal dispatch. With the optimally sized systems, we implemented real-time operation using the model-based control (MPC), facilitating the effective and efficient management of energy resources. Comprehensive assessments are performed using simulation studies to quantify potential energy and economic benefits by different utility tariffs and climate locations, to improve our understanding of the techno-economic performance of different TES and BES systems, and to identify barriers to adopting energy storage for buildings. Finally, the proposed framework will provide guidance to a broad range of stakeholders to properly design energy storage in buildings and maximize potential benefits, thereby advancing affordable building energy storage deployment and helping accelerate the transition towards a cleaner and more equitable energy economy.
