Under this background, this paper proposes a novel multi-objective optimization model to determine the optimal allocation capacity of energy storage in a thermal power plant for provision of peak regulation service in smart grid. But energy storage programs must be strategically and intentionally designed to achieve peak demand reduction; otherwise, battery usage may not efectively lower demand peaks and may even increase peaks and/or greenhouse gas emissions in some circumstances. Economic benefits are the main reason driving investment in energy storage systems. In this paper. . regulation of power system has been greatly challenged.
