Service stacking is a promising method to improve energy storage system integration. There are several interesting cases where service stacking is crucial. Frequency supportive services are the most common to add when expanding portfolios. There is no standard method to solve optimization of service portfolios.
Battery storage systems can add significant value to the grid and to project developers by providing multiple services, known as value-stacking. This multi-use approach to battery energy storage systems (BESS) is essential for maximizing their overall value.
To ensure that an energy storage investment is guaranteed a reasonable payback period and a good return of investment it is advantageous to consider the possibility of service stacking. By offering additional services in turns or in parallel with the main service it is possible to create important revenue streams.
Storage units that are operating mainly for a service with large seasonal variation, service stacking has a great potential to be implemented. RES integration and T&D investment deferral are two examples of such services which both include large annual variations.
The opposite is valid for a power demanding main service. One interesting approach is to consider service stacking already during the dimensioning process. This approach requires an optimization of the storage size given the specified portfolio, accounting for all relevant services included.
Service stacking, alternatively value stacking or revenue stacking, is a promising method to optimize and maximize the technical and economic potential of an ESS. The aim is to find one or more additional services which the ESS can provide, besides of the main service. Offering additional services results in higher degree of utilization of the ESS.

Over the last decade, significant improvements have been made in the cost, performance, and reliability of energy storage systems (ESSs). The value and effectiveness of energy storage in supporting a cleaner, more resilient future grid are being validated through numerous field demonstrations and analyses;. .

Energy storage is a potential substitute for, or complement to, almost every aspect of a power system, including generation, transmission, and demand flexibility. Storage should be co-optimized with clean generation, transmission systems, and strategies to reward consumers for making their electricity use more. . Goals that aim for zero emissions are more complex and expensive than NetZero goals that use negative emissions technologies to achieve a reduction of 100%. The pursuit of a. . The need to co-optimize storage with other elements of the electricity system, coupled with uncertain climate change impacts on demand and supply, necessitate advances in analytical tools to reliably and efficiently plan, operate, and. . The intermittency of wind and solar generation and the goal of decarbonizing other sectors through electrification increase the benefit of adopting pricing and load management options that reward all consumers for shifting. . Lithium-ion batteries are being widely deployed in vehicles, consumer electronics, and more recently, in electricity storage systems. These batteries have, and will. [pdf]
Storage enables electricity systems to remain in balance despite variations in wind and solar availability, allowing for cost-effective deep decarbonization while maintaining reliability. The Future of Energy Storage report is an essential analysis of this key component in decarbonizing our energy infrastructure and combating climate change.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
In order to implement the energy platform, there is significant work to develop enabling technologies such as energy storage, power electronics, and mathematical and computing tools. Control and optimization of a large number of devices and players to ensure system-level performance also requires a large and sustained effort.
The real cost of energy storage is the life cycle cost (LCC) which is the amount of electricity stored and released divided by the total capital and operation cost. Li-ion batteries have a typical deep cycle life of about 3000 times, which translates into a life cycle cost more than $0.10 kWh −1, much higher the renewable electricity cost.
The energy platform is certainly an ideal mechanism for information sharing and exchange, but the security requirements put pressure on the development and implementation of new theories and technologies such as the block chain technology .
All the generation and storage devices should be interconnected and managed by the energy platform. A large barrier is the high cost of energy storage at present time. Many technologies have been investigated and evaluated for energy storage . Different storage technologies should be considered for different applications.
