What is a battery energy storage system?

A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.

Should energy storage systems be recharged after a short duration?

An energy storage system capable of serving long durations could be used for short durations, too. Recharging after a short usage period could ultimately affect the number of full cycles before performance declines. Likewise, keeping a longer-duration system at a full charge may not make sense.

What is storage duration?

Storage duration is the amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before depleting its energy capacity. For instance, a battery with 1 MW of power capacity and 4 MWh of usable energy capacity will have a storage duration of four hours.
