Energy storage has the potential to play a crucial role in the future of the power sector. However, significant research and development efforts are needed to improve storage technologies, reduce costs, and increase efficiency.
Investment decisions Energy storage can affect investment in power generation by reducing the need for peaker plants and transmission and distribution upgrades, thereby lowering the overall cost of electricity generation and delivery.
High-power storage systems have a dynamic impact on the flow of power within the grid, which improves the grid’s capacity to absorb and reduce oscillations and maintain overall stability and dependability. This support becomes crucial to keeping a steady and uninterrupted power supply and avoiding power outages .
