Provide technical parameters and relevant data for three example use cases that could be used in a valuation tool. Identify a list of publicly available DOE tools that can provide energy storage valuation insights for ESS use case stakeholders. Provide information on the capabilities and different options in each modeling tool.
The DOE energy storage valuation tools are valuable for industry, regulators, and other stakeholders to model, optimize, and evaluate different ESSs in a variety of use cases. There are numerous similarities and differences among these tools.
Battery Energy Storage Evaluation Tool (BSET): BSET is a modeling and analysis tool enabling users to evaluate and size a BESS for grid applications. It models the technical characteristics and physical capability of a BESS. It also incorporates operational uncertainty into system valuation.
Evaluating potential revenue streams from flexible assets, such as energy storage systems, is not simple. Investors need to consider the various value pools available to a storage asset, including wholesale, grid services, and capacity markets, as well as the inherent volatility of the prices of each (see sidebar, “Glossary”).
Valuing energy storage is often a complex endeavor that must consider different polices, market structures, incentives, and value streams, which can vary significantly across locations. In addition, the economic benefits of an ESS highly depend on its operational characteristics and physical capabilities.
