[Two ministries introduce independent energy storage capacity pricing policies] The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration recently issued a notice on improving the capacity pricing mechanism on the power generation side, clarifying that capacity pricing will be given to independent new energy storage power stations on the grid side that serve the safe operation of the power system and do not participate in distribution and storage. The electricity price standard is based on the local coal-fired power capacity electricity price, converted according to a certain proportion based on peak capacity, with a maximum conversion ratio not exceeding 1, and taking into account the construction of the electricity market and system demand, further promoting the large-scale development of new energy storage.Editor/Yang Meiling
