6. 5. Battery Storage as Grid Reinforcement for Peak Power Demands

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

   Author : Jesper Hilleberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Battery Storage; Battery Energy Storage System; Grid Reinforcement; Flexibility; Lithium-ion battery; li-ion battery; Large Scale Grid Storage; BESS; Energy Storage; Peak Power Demand; Batterilagring; Batterilagringsystem; Nätförstärkning; Nätförstärkningsåtgärd; toppeffektlaster; Flexibilitet; Flexibilitetslösning; litiumjonbatteri; li-ion batteri; BESS; energilagring;

   Abstract : An increased amount of intermittent electricity production, more electric vehicles (EV), and an overall electrification of society may all cause a higher variability between the balance of supply and demand on the electric grid. Battery storage has been identified as a solution to the emerging problem asit can be charged during hours of low power demand and then discharged to help meet the power demand during peak loads.
