While mentions of large tied-grid energy storage technologies will be made, this chapter focuses on off-grid storage systems in the perspective of rural and island electrification, which means in the context of providing energy services in remote areas. The electrical load of power systems varies significantly with both location and time.
In off-grid applications, ES can be used to balance the generation and consumption, to prevent frequency and voltage deviations. Due to the widespread use of battery energy storage (BES), the paper further presents various battery models, for power system economic analysis, reliability evaluation, and dynamic studies.
Abstract: This paper presents the updated status of energy storage (ES) technologies, and their technical and economical characteristics, so that, the best technology can be selected either for grid-connected or off-grid power system applications.
There is thus a huge global potential, in remote areas, for exploiting local renewable energy sources (RES) in place of fossil generation. Energy storage systems become hence essential for off-grid communities to cope with the issue of RES intermittency, allowing them to rely on locally harvested RES.
Off-grid energy storage, specifically battery technology, is a crucial asset to satisfy electricity needs of individual households, small communities, and islands, as discussed in the chapter.
