The potential and the role of energy storage for PV and future energy development Incentives from supporting policies, such as feed-in-tariff and net-metering, will gradually phase out with rapid increase installation decreasing cost of PV modules and the PV intermittency problem.
The cost and optimisation of PV can be reduced with the integration of load management and energy storage systems. This review paper sets out the range of energy storage options for photovoltaics including both electrical and thermal energy storage systems.
Nonetheless, it was also estimated that in 2020 these services could be economically feasible for PV power plants. In contrast, in , the energy storage value of each of these services (firming and time-shift) were studied for a 2.5 MW PV power plant with 4 MW and 3.4 MWh energy storage. In this case, the PV plant is part of a microgrid.
Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services. The best location of the storage should be considered and depends on the service. Energy storage can play an essential role in large scale photovoltaic power plants for complying with the current and future standards (grid codes) or for providing market oriented services.
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.
