Learn how battery based energy storage can help to stabilise fluctuating grid via fast reaction time
According to various forecasts, renewable energy production will increase. This increase of renewables brings two main concerns to grid operators as enhanced production of solar power reduces the need of other production in day time and will increase the availability of the ramp up power. This is especially the case in countries; where renewable is a preferred way to produce energy.
The second challenge is the stable production; it is more and more difficult to match energy demand and production. The residual current is getting higher and higher and that is a challenge for both production and distribution. Possible faults in distribution or transmission will also cause balancing challenges for the grid stability. There is no "silver bullet" that will solve the issue alone; there is a need for various solutions.
Battery based energy storage can react rapidly to help other sources of power to overcome fast variations in the grid. Reaction time is in tens of millisecond level, so damping of the effect can be done. Battery based energy storage is the first to respond towards the disturbance. Due to that reason the reliability and correct operation is important.
Join this webinar to understand why disturbances are increasing and how to build reliable battery based energy storage system to stabilise the grid.
