DLCs are not suitable for the storage of energy over longer periods of time, because of their high self-discharge rate, their low energy density and high investment costs.
1.2. Energy storage systems (ESS) Energy storage systems (ESSs) successfully mitigate renewable energy intermittency and unreliability. These systems function in charge, storage and discharging modes thereby offering effective energy management, less spillage and a stable power grid.
Electrical Energy Storage Systems (EESS) are advanced technologies that store energy directly in an electric or magnetic field without conversion into another energy form. These systems are especially efficient for short-term energy storage and are crucial to balancing power grids, enhancing power quality, and addressing peak demand hours.
Energy Storage Systems (ESS) have proven to be enabling technologies. They address these limitations by stabilizing the grid, optimizing supply demand dynamics and enhancing the integration of renewable resources.
EESS is divided into two categories depending upon the storage medium: Electrostatic Energy Storage Systems, including capacitors and supercapacitors [95, 96], and Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) [97, 98]. These technologies provide efficient management of energy and enhance microgrid stability and performance.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is a significant subcategory of ECES, made up of a series of interconnected battery cells that charge and discharge energy in an efficient manner . Every battery cell has three main elements like an anode, a cathode and an electrolyte, which enable the movement of electrons during charging and discharging.
However, such storage systems become vi-able and economically reasonable only if the grids have to carry and distribute large amounts of vol-atile electricity from REs. The fi rst demonstration and pilot plants are currently under construction (e.g. in Europe).
