Abstract: With the gradual transformation of global energy, photovoltaic power generation, wind power generation, and other renewable energy have attracted countries around the world. Western China has excellent wind and solar energy resources, which are highly vulnerable to external factors and have severe limitations. Considering the gradual maturity of storage and energy storage technology of abandoned mine reservoirs, the combination of storage and energy storage technology of abandoned coal mines and wind-solar power generation technology can realize the reasonable allocation of electric energy in the time dimension. This paper studies the regulation capability of the mine pumped-hydro energy storage system proposed by scholars and uses the wind-photoelectric field model to predict the output power of wind farms and solar power stations. Taking the Lingxin coal mine as an example, the optimization algorithm is used to optimize the dispatching ability of the entire PHS joint system. The results prove that the system proposed in this paper can significantly improve the instability of the generation power curve (In terms of variance, volatility decreases to 18.76%), and improve the overall system revenue to some extent (economic efficiency increased by 15.47%). This provides certain technical support for the better utilization of new energy in the future.
