Grid energy storage is a means of compensating for generation fluctuations of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy on timescales ranging from seconds to hours. As larger amounts of these sources enter the market, grid energy storage becomes increasingly important.
A study published by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) delved into the insights gained from designing Mongolia’s first grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS), boasting an 80 megawatt (MW)/200 megawatt-hour (MWh) capacity.
The BESS project is strategically positioned to act as a reserve, effectively removing the obstacle impeding the augmentation of variable renewable energy capacity. Adapted from this study, this explainer recommends a practical design approach for developing a grid-connected battery energy storage system. Size the BESS correctly.
The information presented in the guide focuses primarily on customer-sited, behind-the-meter solar+storage installations, though much of the information is relevant to other types of projects as well, including storage-only projects and front-of-the-meter solar+storage projects.
BESSs are modular, housed within standard shipping containers, allowing for versatile deployment. When planning the implementation of a Battery Energy Storage System, policy makers face a range of design challenges. This is primarily due to the unique nature of each BESS, which doesn't neatly fit into any established power supply service category.
