First, we formulate a cost-minimization model that includes ESS dispatch costs, wind and photovoltaic (PV) curtailment costs, and load loss costs, while explicitly enforcing power supply reliability constraints. Next, we develop a comprehensive evaluation indicator system that integrates reliability, economic performance, renewable-energy utilization, and ESS technical indicators, thereby addressing the limitations of single-indicator assessments. Finally, a case study using real data from a region in China shows that the proposed strategy reduces the loss-of-load probability (LOLP) by 37.42%, halves the expected energy not supplied (EENS), and increases the system reliability indicator to 99.98%, with only a 0.014% increase in total cost. These results demonstrate the effectiveness and practical value of the proposed ESS dispatch optimization strategy.
