Battery energy storage systems are generally designed to be able to output at their full rated power for several hours. Battery storage can be used for short-term peak power and ancillary services, such as providing operating reserve and frequency control to minimize the chance of power outages.
Assessing the potential of battery storage as a peaking capacity resource in the United States Appl. Energy, 275 ( 2020), Article 115385, 10.1016/j.apenergy.2020.115385 Renew. Energy, 50 ( 2013), pp. 826 - 832, 10.1016/j.renene.2012.07.044 Long-run power storage requirements for high shares of renewables: review and a new model Renew. Sust. Energ.
The other primary element of a BESS is an energy management system (EMS) to coordinate the control and operation of all components in the system. For a battery energy storage system to be intelligently designed, both power in megawatt (MW) or kilowatt (kW) and energy in megawatt-hour (MWh) or kilowatt-hour (kWh) ratings need to be specified.
Rated Energy Storage Capacity is the total amount of stored energy in kilowatt-hours (KWh) or megawatt-hours (MWh). Capacity expressed in ampere-hours (100Ah@12V for example). The amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before exhausting its battery energy storage capacity.
The energy-to-power ratio (EPR) of battery storage affects its utilization and effectiveness. Higher EPRs bring larger economic, environmental and reliability benefits to power system. Higher EPRs are favored as renewable energy penetration increases. Lifetimes of storage increase from 10 to 20 years as EPR increases from 1 to 10.

A battery energy storage system (BESS), battery storage power station, battery energy grid storage (BEGS) or battery grid storage is a type of energy storage technology that uses a group of batteries in the grid to store electrical energy. Battery storage is the fastest responding dispatchable source of power on electric grids, and it is used to stabilise those grids, as battery storage can transition from standby to full power in under a second to deal with grid contingencies.
