HANDBOOK FOR ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS
ABOUT THE ENERGY MARKET AUTHORITY The Energy Market Authority (“EMA”) is a statutory board under the Ministry of Trade and Industry. Our main goals are to ensure a
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.
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.
As cited in the DOE OE ES Program Plan, “Industry requires specifications of standards for characterizing the performance of energy storage under grid conditions and for modeling behavior. Discussions with industry professionals indicate a significant need for standards ” [1, p. 30].
As shown in Fig. 3, many safety C&S affect the design and installation of ESS. One of the key product standards that covers the full system is the UL9540 Standard for Safety: Energy Storage Systems and Equipment . Here, we discuss this standard in detail; some of the remaining challenges are discussed in the next section.
Asset class position and role of energy storage within the smart grid As utility networks are transformed into smart grids, interest in energy storage systems is increasing within the context of aging generation assets, heightening renewable energy penetration, and more distributed sources of generation .
This is the source of its value, and defining storage as a new asset class would allow owners and operators to provide the highest-valued services across components of the grid. The benefits of energy storage depend on the flexibility in application inherent in system design and operation.
