Boost stations and aggregation stations are two common facilities in the power system. Their main differences are as follows:
1. Different functions: Booster stations are used to convert the voltage of transmission lines from lower Levels are raised to higher levels in order to transmit electrical energy over long distances. Aggregation stations, on the other hand, are used to collect electrical energy from multiple wind or solar generators and deliver it to the grid for distribution.
2. Different interfaces: the booster station is usually connected to the transmission line, while the collection station is connected to the wind power or solar generator set and the power grid.
3. Different locations: the booster station is usually located near the end of the power grid, while the collection station is usually located near the generating unit.
4. Different equipment: Booster stations usually need to install transformers, cables, isolating switches, coupling capacitors and other equipment, while collection stations need to install various protection equipment, converters, metering equipment, etc. Although booster stations and aggregation stations are both facilities used to manage power transmission, they differ in terms of functions, interfaces, locations, and equipment.
Power plants, transmission lines and substations. The three inventories of the power grid refer to the three inventories of power plants, transmission lines and substations. Among them, the power plant inventory records all power generation facilities in the power grid, including thermal power, hydropower, wind power and other types of power generation equipment. The transmission line inventory records all transmission lines in the grid, including AC and DC transmission lines. The substation list records all substation facilities in the power grid, including information such as voltage level and capacity. These three inventories are important basis for power grid operation and dispatch, and help ensure the safety, stability and efficiency of power grid operation.
