The Inflation Reduction Act incentivizes large-scale battery storage projects. And California regulations now require energy storage for newly constructed commercial buildings. The same microgrid-based BESS can serve either or both of these use cases.
Another use case for battery storage on microgrids is aggregating BESS as a virtual power plant (VPP) to correct imbalances in the utility grid. At the grid level, when the supply of power from renewables temporarily drops, utilities need to respond quickly to maintain equilibrium between supply and demand and stabilize the grid frequency.
Isolated microgrids can be of any size depending on the power loads. In this sense, MGs are made up of an interconnected group of distributed energy resources (DER), including grouping battery energy storage systems (BESS) and loads.
Currently, there is substantial attention on microgrids (MGs) due to their ability to increase the reliability and controllability of power systems. MGs are a set of decentralized and intelligent energy distribution networks, which possess specific characteristics critical to the evolution of energy systems .
To reduce energy costs, a facility with a microgrid can leverage a BESS to store power from variable renewable energy (VRE) sources, such as solar or wind, and then substitute the stored energy for utility power when utility rates are highest in an attempt to arbitrage.
Volatile energy markets, utility grid disruptions, and the rising awareness of climate change have created new energy challenges that require innovative answers. As a result, many organizations are embracing microgrids as a solution to the mounting problems.
