Energy storage systems are typically defined as either AC or DC coupled systems. This is simply the point of connection for the energy storage system in relation to the electrical grid or other equipment. For AC (alternating current) coupled systems, the batteries are connected to the part of the grid that has AC or alternating current.
The authors support defining energy storage as a distinct asset class within the electric grid system, supported with effective regulatory and financial policies for development and deployment within a storage-based smart grid system in which storage is placed in a central role.
Energy storage helps smooth out intermittent resources’ output by discharging during periods of low production. Compared to other generation systems, battery storage systems take up little space for the amount of power they release. The oldest and most common form of energy storage is mechanical pumped-storage hydropower.
The underlying motivation for DOE’s strategic investment in energy storage is to ensure that the American people will have access to energy storage innovations that enable resilient, flexible, affordable, and secure energy systems and supply, for everyone, everywhere.
Next, we identify the limits to energy storage systems as a poorly defined asset class within the electric grid value chain, and demonstrate how creating a new asset class for storage will both enhance the value of storage and also provide significant benefits to the operation of the smart grid.
Battery energy storage systems vary in size from residential units of a few kilowatt-hours to utility-scale systems of hundreds of megawatt-hours, but they all share a similar architecture. These systems begin with individual battery cells, which are electrically connected and then packaged in a battery module.
