Battery storage systems in electric power grid: A review

Abstract

Renewable energy within the utility grid has increased during the previous decade. Severe issues have been raised about the dependability, effectiveness, and efficiency of energy infrastructure. Therefore, energy storage devices have considerably enhanced the network’s accuracy and reliability. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are among the greatest widely used storage solutions because they have several advantages over traditional power sources, including fast and accurate response, flexibility, and predictability. They are regarded as a reasonable alternative to the threat of climate change. This paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of the BESS’s optimum size targets, limitations, methodology, benefits and disadvantages. Furthermore, energy storage technologies and improved application targets have been presented and discussed for greater clarity. This study focuses primarily on BESS deployments, methodologies, and environmental impact. BEES innovations and achievements for electrical networks are also compared to other energy storage technologies. Concerns and obstacles are discussed to offer researchers in BESS a comprehensive picture. Finally, this study provides several essential ideas that economists and practitioners can use to design a fruitful, robust, efficient, and resilient BESS for a brighter and more optimal deployment.
