View DetailsAn energy storage system (ESS) for electricity generation uses electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device, which is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed at desired levels and quality. ESSs provide a variety of services to support electric power grids.
An energy storage system consists of three main components: a control system, which manages the energy flow between the converter and the storage unit. The operation of an energy storage system depends on the type of technology used, which can be chemical, electrochemical, mechanical, thermal, or electromagnetic in nature.
Battery energy storage systems operate by converting electricity from the grid or a power generation source (such as from solar or wind) into stored chemical energy. When the chemical energy is discharged, it is converted back into electrical energy. This is the same process used with phones, laptops, and other electronic devices.
There are different types of energy storage systems, which differ in their technical characteristics, performance, costs and applications. The most widespread types include: batteries, which are electrochemical devices that store energy in the form of electrical charge.
