Why do we need energy storage systems?
Electrical energy storage systems may help balance intermittent renewable power generation and improve electric network reliability and system utilisation. With continuing cost reduction and the availability of storage technologies, energy storage systems may play a fundamental role in influencing future grid operations.
How can energy storage improve the penetration of intermittent resources?
Energy storage can increase the penetration of intermittent resources by improving power system flexibility, reducing energy curtailment and minimising system costs. By the end of 2018 the global capacity for pump hydropower storage reached 160 GW whereas the global capacity for battery storage totalled around 3 GW (REN21 2019 ).
What are the different types of energy storage systems?
Mainly, they can be divided into two groups: electrical and thermal energy storage systems. Electrical energy storage systems are also classified into electrochemical, chemical, mechanical, and electromagnetic. Examples of electrochemical storage systems are fuel-cells and batteries.
