The third part which is about Power system considerations for energy storage covers Integration of energy storage systems; Effect of energy storage on transient regimes in the power system; and Optimising regimes for energy storage in a power system.
Secondary energy storage in a power system is any installation or method, usually subject to independent control, with the help of which it is possible to store energy, generated in the power system, keep it stored and use it in the power system when necessary.
As a consequence, the electrical grid sees much higher power variability than in the past, challenging its frequency and voltage regulation. Energy storage systems will be fundamental for ensuring the energy supply and the voltage power quality to customers.
As a consequence, to guarantee a safe and stable energy supply, faster and larger energy availability in the system is needed. This survey paper aims at providing an overview of the role of energy storage systems (ESS) to ensure the energy supply in future energy grids.
The main objectives of introducing energy storage to a power utility are to improve the system load factor, achieve peak shaving, provide system reserve and effectively minimise the overall cost of energy production. Constraints of various systems must also be satisfied for both charge and discharge storage regimes.
