Batteries and an electronic control system are at the heart of how stationary energy storage systems work. Batteries are where the energy is stored within the system in the form of chemical energy, and lithium is the most popular element used to store the chemical energy within batteries.
BESSs are modular, housed within standard shipping containers, allowing for versatile deployment. When planning the implementation of a Battery Energy Storage System, policy makers face a range of design challenges. This is primarily due to the unique nature of each BESS, which doesn't neatly fit into any established power supply service category.
The BESS project is strategically positioned to act as a reserve, effectively removing the obstacle impeding the augmentation of variable renewable energy capacity. Adapted from this study, this explainer recommends a practical design approach for developing a grid-connected battery energy storage system. Size the BESS correctly.
Combined with rapid decreases in the costs of battery technology and improving incentives for storage projects (notably the IRA), increasing needs for system flexibility highlight the increasing role of battery energy storage systems, or “BESS” projects, in accomplishing global, national and local clean energy and climate goals.
A study published by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) delved into the insights gained from designing Mongolia’s first grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS), boasting an 80 megawatt (MW)/200 megawatt-hour (MWh) capacity.
Placing storage near load centers also has benefits where load centers (especially in urbanized areas) are located far from renewable sources (like utility-scale wind and solar generation facilities), resulting in energy losses relating to the generation tie line (or “gen-tie”) from the BESS to the load.
