Abstract: This paper presents the updated status of energy storage (ES) technologies, and their technical and economical characteristics, so that, the best technology can be selected either for grid-connected or off-grid power system applications.
While mentions of large tied-grid energy storage technologies will be made, this chapter focuses on off-grid storage systems in the perspective of rural and island electrification, which means in the context of providing energy services in remote areas. The electrical load of power systems varies significantly with both location and time.
Living with an off grid energy system is never like living on the mains, but it can be cheaper than getting an electrical or gas mains connection, and is much cheaper and quieter than running a diesel generator. The first step in setting up an off grid renewables system is to minimise your electricity use and heating demands.
In off-grid applications, ES can be used to balance the generation and consumption, to prevent frequency and voltage deviations. Due to the widespread use of battery energy storage (BES), the paper further presents various battery models, for power system economic analysis, reliability evaluation, and dynamic studies.
Electrochemical storage technologies are the most common solutions for off-grid installations. If nonelectrical energy storage systems, such as water tanks for a pumping system or flywheels or hydrogen storage in specific locations and contexts, are sometimes a relevant solution, they are not as common as electrochemical storage technologies.
For the purpose of this review, grid electricity access refers to conventional centralised grid-extension systems typically powered by fossil-fuels and off-grid refers to decentralised solutions including stand-alone and mini-grid technologies powered mainly by renewables such as solar PV and batteries.
