This paper studies the energy storage and generation characteristics of the photovoltaic power generation coupling compressed air energy storage system for the 5 kW base station, and analyzes the photovoltaic power generation characteristics within 24 h and its influence on the flow characteristics of the compressed air energy storage system. The results show that, affected by precipitation and sunlight, the compressed air energy storage power reaches highest value in May and August, and the compressed air flow and cooling water flow in a single day increase with the increase of light intensity. The power generation time reaches longest value in June, shortest in December, the energy storage time reaches longest in June and shortest in January. Considering the combined demand of cold energy, thermal energy and electric energy in actual production and life, the setting scheme of the compressed air energy storage system for combined cold heat power supply is obtained, and the parameter values such as compression/expansion stage, compression/expansion pressure ratio, temperature and pressure at the inlet and outlet of the compressor/expander/heat exchanger are defined. Adding solar thermal energy storage to the photovoltaic power generation compressed air energy storage system, it is found that it can effectively increase the air temperature and thus reduce the expansion stages required at a specific time.
