Battery energy storage systems can enable EV fast charging build-out in areas with limited power grid capacity, reduce charging and utility costs through peak shaving, and boost energy storage capacity to allow for EV charging in the event of a power grid disruption or outage.
When an EV requests power from a battery-buffered direct current fast charging (DCFC) station, the battery energy storage system can discharge stored energy rapidly, providing EV charging at a rate far greater than the rate at which it draws energy from the power grid. Why Consider Battery Energy Storage?
For another example, review the Joint Offce of Energy and Transportation's (Joint Offce's) technical assistance case study Grid-Constrained Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Sites: Battery-Buffered Options. A battery energy storage system can help manage DCFC energy use to reduce strain on the power grid during high-cost times of day.
An analysis by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) shows that appropriately sized battery-buffered systems can reduce power grid service capacity needs by approximately 50% to 80% compared to a charging station that is powered entirely by the power grid, while offering an identical charging experience for motorists.1
DC fast charging allows the EV to charge at up to 300 kW and can often take a battery pack from near zero percent state of charge (SOC) to 80% SOC in 15 to 45 minutes depending on the model of EV.

Charge the battery overnight or midday (with PV), then discharge to supply fast charging during costly peak windows. This reduces both demand charges and energy costs per kWh sold.
