Battery storage is one of several technology options that can enhance power system flexibility and enable high levels of renewable energy integration.
The state of charge influences a battery's ability to provide energy or ancillary services to the grid at any given time. Round-trip eficiency, measured as a percentage, is a ratio of the energy charged to the battery to the energy discharged from the battery.
For example, a battery with 1 MW of power capacity and 4 MWh of usable energy capacity will have a storage duration of four hours. Cycle life/lifetime is the amount of time or cycles a battery storage system can provide regular charging and discharging before failure or significant degradation.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can be utilized to provide three types of reserves: spinning, non-spinning, and supplemental reserves. Spinning reserves refer to the reserve power that is already online and synchronized with the grid. It is the first line of defense during a grid disturbance and can be dispatched almost instantaneously.
