Get PriceEconomic aspects of grid-connected energy storage systems Modern energy infrastructure relies on grid-connected energy storage systems (ESS) for grid stability, renewable energy integration, and backup power. Understanding these systems' feasibility and adoption requires economic analysis.
NREL supported the development and acceptance testing of a microgrid battery energy storage system developed by EaglePicher Technologies as part of an effort sponsored by U.S. Northern Command. The three-tiered, 300-kW/386-kWh grid-tied system is capable of providing grid stabilization, microgrid support, and on-command power response.
The system is installed in a microgrid test bed at NREL's Energy Systems Integration Facility with load banks that emulate microgrid critical loads and a programmable AC power supply that emulates the grid tie.
Modern power grids depend on energy storage systems (ESS) for reliability and sustainability. With the rise of renewable energy, grid stability depends on the energy storage system (ESS). Batteries degrade, energy efficiency issues arise, and ESS sizing and allocation are complicated.
On the one hand, the proliferation of electric mobility has led to mobile energy storage resources (MESRs), including electric vehicles (EVs) and mobile energy storage systems (MESSs), becoming valuable power sources to address load demands during major power outages , .
To address these challenges, the microgrid will include a rapid solid-state switch to protect the microgrid from grid disturbances. NREL collaborated with Caterpillar to test a prototype utility-scale energy storage inverter and microgrid controller.
