Grid connected energy storage systems are regarded as promising solutions for providing ancillary services to electricity networks and to play an important role in the development of smart grids. The aim of the present article is to analyze the role of storage systems in the development of smart grids.
The article includes an analysis and a list of energy storage systems that are applied in smart grids. Various energy storage systems are examined raging from electrical, electrochemical, thermal, and mechanical systems. Two case studies are presented that show the role of energy storage in effective management of energy demand and supply.
As can be seen in Table 3, for the power type and application time scale of energy storage, the current application of energy storage in the power grid mainly focuses on power frequency active regulation, especially in rapid frequency regulation, peak shaving and valley filling, and new energy grid-connected operation.
Smart grids are one of the major challenges of the energy sector for both the energy demand and energy supply in smart communities and cities. Grid connected energy storage systems are regarded as promising solutions for providing ancillary services to electricity networks and to play an important role in the development of smart grids.
Furthermore, the implementation of Energy Storage and Microgrids exhibits potential in enhancing the resilience of the grid. However, the widespread adoption of these technologies can encounter obstacles due to the considerable initial expenses involved and the regulatory complexities that arise.
In an energy storage-enabled smart grid, in the planning phase, AI can optimize energy storage configurations and develop appropriate selection schemes, thereby enhancing the system inertia and power quality and reducing construction costs.
