Grid-connected distributed renewable energy generation
The rapid increase in power consumption, limited generation capacities, rapid depletion of traditional energy sources, and adverse ecological effects have increased
Distributed energy storage method plays a major role in preventing power fluctuation and power quality problems caused by these systems in the grid. The main point of application is dimensioning the energy storage system and positioning it in the distribution grid.
Distributed energy storage systems can be used almost everywhere around the system of power, have broad application prospects and huge application potential, and will become more and more significant for the power grid in the near future.
Dispatchable distributed energy storage can be used for grid control, reliability, and resiliency, thereby creating additional value for the consumer. Unlike distributed generation, the value of distributed storage is in control of the dimensions of capacity, voltage, frequency, and phase angle.
Distributed energy storage is widely recognized as a key enabler of smart grids for its role in complementing renewable generation by smoothing out power fluctuations [56,57]. For instance, surplus energy can be stored during conditions of low demand and supplied back during periods of heavy load.
This trend is rapidly gaining momentum as DG technologies improve, and utilities envision that a salient feature of smart grids could be the massive deployment of decentralized power storage and generation systems, also called distributed energy resources or DERs.
The power of distributed energy storage equipment ranges from a few kW (kilowatt) to a few MW. The available capacity of the energy storage is generally less than 10 MWh (Megawatt Hours), and it is often connected to the medium and the distribution network with low voltage or the customers.
