What is battery swapping station (BSS)?

Battery swapping station (BSS), a business model of battery energy storage (BES), has great potential in future integrated low-carbon energy and transportation systems. However, frequent battery swapping will inevitably accelerate battery degradation and shorten the battery life accordingly.

Is battery swapping a good business model for Energy Arbitrage & swapping?

Battery for both energy arbitrage and swapping has a higher life-cycle revenue. Battery for both energy arbitrage and swapping has a higher unit degradation cost. Battery swapping station (BSS), a business model of battery energy storage (BES), has great potential in future integrated low-carbon energy and transportation systems.

What is a decision model for battery valuation in battery swapping station?

A decision model is developed for battery valuation in battery swapping station. The model achieves the tradeoff of battery use between energy and transportation. Battery for both energy arbitrage and swapping has a higher life-cycle revenue. Battery for both energy arbitrage and swapping has a higher unit degradation cost.

Will the benefits of battery swapping increase with the price?

Note that the benefits of battery swapping will not increase indefinitely with an increase in the battery swapping price because the demand for battery swapping changes in the opposite direction with the price (we use the maximal amount of energy that can be swapped to characterize the demand for battery swapping in the decision model).

Does battery swapping increase life-cycle revenue and Abu of BSS?

Fig. 8 shows that the life-cycle revenue and ABU of BSS with battery swapping increase considerably when the battery swapping price increases from $80/MWh to $160/MWh and decreases sharply when the battery swapping price is more than $170/MWh.

What is the demand for battery swapping?

Concretely, in the case study, the demand for battery swapping tends to be zero when the battery swapping price is more than $180/MWh.
