An energy storage system can provide relevant support to the electrical system for the integration of renewable energy sources. This application is quite common and it is one of the main applications already operated by traditional pumped-storage hydroelectric plants.
The ESS could be also used in case of a general blackout for the re-starting of the entire electrical system. As mentioned above, there are many applications for energy storage systems and several benefits for the electrical system where an energy storage system is present.
Energy storage is utilized for several applications like power peak shaving, renewable energy, improved building energy systems, and enhanced transportation. ESS can be classified based on its application . 6.1. General applications
Applications can range from ancillary services to grid operators to reducing costs “behind-the-meter” to end users. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) have seen the widest variety of uses, while others such as pumped hydropower, flywheels and thermal storage are used in specific applications.
Thermal (in the form of water tanks) and battery energy storage are the most used technologies for this application. This is an especially valuable application in areas with utility rate structures that are disadvantageous to distributed solar, or for microgrid energy storage systems that have limited grid connectivity.
For enormous scale power and highly energetic storage applications, such as bulk energy, auxiliary, and transmission infrastructure services, pumped hydro storage and compressed air energy storage are currently suitable.
