This work explores the factors that affect the energy storage reserve capacity of 5G base stations: communication volume of the base station, power consumption of the base station, backup time of the base station, and the power supply reliability of the distribution network nodes.
The denseness and dispersion of 5G base stations make the distance between base station energy storage and power users closer. When the user's load loses power, the relevant energy storage can be quickly controlled to participate in the power supply of the lost load.
The massive growth of 5G base stations in the current power grid will not only increase power consumption, but also bring considerable energy storage resources. However, there are few studies on the feasibility of 5G base station energy storage participating in the emergency restoration of the power grid.
According to data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, the energy storage demand for China's 5G base stations is expected to reach 31.8 GWh by 2023 (as shown in Fig. 1).
Engineers designing 5G base stations must contend with energy use, weight, size, and heat, which impact design decisions. 5G New Radio (NR) uses Multi-User massive-MIMO (MU-MIMO), Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB), and beamforming with millimeter wave (mmWave) spectrum up to 71 GHz.
Base stations' backup energy storage time is often related to the reliability of power supply between power grids. For areas with high power supply reliability, the backup energy storage time of base stations can be set smaller.
