As a solution, the integration of energy storage within large scale PV power plants can help to comply with these challenging grid code requirements 1. Accordingly, ES technologies can be expected to be essential for the interconnection of new large scale PV power plants.
Energy storage requirements in photovoltaic power plants are reviewed. Li-ion and flywheel technologies are suitable for fulfilling the current grid codes. Supercapacitors will be preferred for providing future services. Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services.
While flow batteries could be an alternative option, Lithium-Ion or flywheel energy storage could also be used, specially in those particular cases where very high power is required (e.g. very large photovoltaic power plants). Black start is also one of the candidates to be required in the future grid codes.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.
To sum up, from PV power plants under-frequency regulation viewpoint, the energy storage should require between 1.5% to 10% of the rated power of the PV plant. In terms of energy, it is required, at least, to provide full power during 9–30 min (see Table 5).
Slow, usually large capacity mechanical energy storage systems are represented by Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS) and Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), both mature technologies. It is based on pumping water into an uphill reservoir using off-peak electricity and later release it downhill to a lower reservoir to power a generator .
