Grid energy storage is a collection of methods used to store energy on a large scale within an electricity grid.
In order to cope with both high and low load situations, as well as the increasing amount of renewable energy being fed into the grid, the storage of electricity is of great importance. However, the large-scale storage of electricity in the grid is still a major challenge and subject to research and development.
Smart grids optimize energy distribution, balance supply and demand, and enable efficient energy storage and management within the grid. Smart grids facilitate the integration of distributed energy resources such as rooftop solar panels, wind turbines, and energy storage systems.
This chapter aims to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the "Introduction to Energy Storage and Conversion". It provides an in-depth examination of fundamental principles, technological advancements, and practical implementations relevant to energy storage and conversion.
Energy storage systems are technologies capable of charging energy from an external source and discharging this energy at a later time. The emergence of storage technologies, such as grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS), has created new opportunities for shifting energy supply and demand.
Energy storage systems (storage or ESS) are crucial to enabling the transition to a clean energy economy and a low-carbon grid. Storage is unique from other types of distributed energy resources (DERs) in several respects that present both challenges and opportunities in how storage systems are interconnected and operated.
