This manuscript illustrates that energy storage can promote renewable energy investments, reduce the risk of price surges in electricity markets, and enhance the security of electricity supply and flexibility of the power system.
Storage can provide similar start-up power to larger power plants, if the storage system is suitably sited and there is a clear transmission path to the power plant from the storage system''s location. Storage system size range: 5–50 MW Target discharge duration range: 15 minutes to 1 hour Minimum cycles/year: 10–20.
