Power storage system
The power storage system includes a main storage system configured to be capable of navigating a water surface and configured to generate electric power using renewable energy, wherein the electric power obtained by the electric power generation is irreversibly stored in the electric power generation floating body, and a sub-storage system in which the electric power obtained by the electric power generation is reversibly stored in the electric power generation floating body.
1. A power storage system provided in a power generation floating body that is configured to navigate a water surface and that performs power generation using renewable energy, the power storage system comprising:
a main storage system in which power obtained by the power generation is irreversibly stored with respect to the power generation floating body;
a sub-storage system in which power obtained by the power generation is stored reversibly with respect to the power generation floating body; and
a power adjustment unit configured to adjust distribution between a power amount stored in the sub-storage system and a power amount stored in the main storage system, with respect to the power obtained by the power generation.
2. The power storage system according to claim 1 , wherein storage capacity of the main storage system is larger than storage capacity of the sub-storage system.
3. The power storage system according to claim 1 , wherein the power adjustment unit predicts a projected power demand amount to be used for self-operation, and adjusts the distribution such that the power amount of the sub-storage system secures the power amount that is projected.
4. The power storage system according to claim 1 , further comprising a hydrogen carrier generating unit for generating a hydrogen carrier from electricity obtained from the power generation, wherein:
in the main storage system, the power is stored as the hydrogen carrier; and
in the sub-storage system, the power is stored in a storage battery.
