What are energy storage systems?
Energy storage systems (ESSs) deployed at different levels of the electrical grid serve different functions. For example, a BESS located at a distribution substation may offer both ancillary-based and distribution-based benefits.
Why do we need energy storage in the electrical grid?
The need for energy storage in the electrical grid has grown in recent years in response to a reduced reliance on fossil fuel baseload power, added intermittent renewable investment, and expanded adoption of distributed energy resources.
Do energy storage valuation studies address resiliency?
Energy storage valuation studies walk cautiously around questions relating to the costs associated with power disruptions. They tend to focus more, if not entirely, on reliability questions rather than addressing the value of resiliency.
Does energy storage add value to the grid?
The following are some of the key conclusions found in this analysis: Energy storage provides significant value to the grid, with median benefit values by use case ranging from under $10/kW-year for voltage support to roughly $100/kW-year for capacity and frequency regulation services.
Does energy storage improve grid resilience?
While the value of increased reliability associated with avoiding more frequent, limited-duration outages is well-documented, the value of energy storage to improving grid resilience remains an open research question, which deserves similar definition. The following are some of the key conclusions found in this analysis:
