Does industry need energy storage standards?

As cited in the DOE OE ES Program Plan, “Industry requires specifications of standards for characterizing the performance of energy storage under grid conditions and for modeling behavior. Discussions with industry professionals indicate a significant need for standards …” [1, p. 30].

What is the optimal storage energy capacity?

The results of five German and European studies are summarized in the appendix (table A2 ). The reported optimal storage energy capacities are large enough to supply 12–32 d of the average load within the considered region, which is about 2–3 times longer than what time series analyses found as the duration of low-wind events.

How long should a storage system last?

When considering storage losses and charging limitations, the period defining storage requirements extends over as much as 12 weeks. For this longer period, the cost-optimal storage needs to be large enough to supply 36 TWh of electricity, which is about three times larger than the energy deficit of the scarcest two weeks.

How is energy storage capacity calculated?

The energy storage capacity, E, is calculated using the efficiency calculated above to represent energy losses in the BESS itself. This is an approximation since actual battery efficiency will depend on operating parameters such as charge/discharge rate (Amps) and temperature.

Are storage energy requirements related to inter-annual variability of renewables?

While previous studies analyzed the inter-annual variability of renewables and implications for system planning in general (Pfenninger 2017, Collins et al 2018, Schlachtberger et al 2018, Zeyringer et al 2018, Kumler et al 2019 ), the implications for storage energy requirements in particular remain unclear.

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage (ES) can provide effective support for power balance between fluctuating generation units and load demand. Prediction of ES requirement is import
