Energy storage system (ESS) can mediate the smart distribution of local energy to reduce the overall carbon footprint in the environment. South Korea is actively involved in the integration of ESS into renewable energy development. This perspective highlights the research and development status of ESS in South Korea.
Less than a decade ago, South Korean companies held over half of the global energy storage system (ESS) market with the rushed promise of helping secure a more sustainable energy future. However, a string of ESS-related fires and a lack of infrastructure had dampened investments in this market.
Among them Korea Energy Storage System 2020 action plan (K-ESS 2020) was announced by Ministry of Knowledge and Economy in 2011 to increase installation of energy storage systems. According to the K-ESS 2020 strategy, Korean government has a plan to install various types of ESS, capacity of about 1,700 MW, in the Korean power system by 2020.
South Korea is actively involved in the integration of ESS into renewable energy development. This perspective highlights the research and development status of ESS in South Korea. We provide an overview of different ESS technologies practiced in South Korea with a special emphasise on the electrochemical energy storage systems.
South Korea is the home to major LIB companies such as LG Chem, Samsung SDI, S.K innovations Hyosung and LS Ind. systems, who have already achieved considerable global competitiveness in the mass production of LIBs. LG Chem has filed 59 patent applications in the ESS sector over the last decade and produced ESS batteries of 710 MW in 2017.
The electricity consumption is anticipated to have an annual increase rate of 2.2% to reach 513 GWh by 2030 [ 4 ]. Nonetheless, Korea still suffers from the difficulties in establishing domestic ESS market principally due to the financial burden for the initial investment.
KOREA''S ENERGY STORAGE THE SYNERGY OF PUBLIC PULL
Energy Storage System (ESS) has emerged as the most viable technology option to deal with this intermittency problem. ESS is a device used to store energy produced, to use later. There are various types of ESS, including pumped hydro storage, flywheel, compressed air system, battery storage (mostly Lithium-ion battery).
