The future relevant technological developments and market trends are assessed. Large-scale Lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are gradually playing a very relevant role within electric networks in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
Among several prevailing battery technologies, li-ion batteries demonstrate high energy efficiency, long cycle life, and high energy density. Efforts to mitigate the frequent, costly, and catastrophic impacts of climate change can greatly benefit from the uptake of batteries as energy storage systems (see Fig. 1).
Battery energy storage systems can cover the full range of the grid layout from low voltage (LV) up to high voltage (HV) including off-grid microgrids . As for the purpose of the present paper, only large-scale Li-ion BESS applications are considered - the indicative minimum size is set at 50 kW storage systems.
If large scale battery storage systems, for example, are defined under law as ‘consumers’ of electricity stored into the storage system will be subject to several levies and taxes that are imposed on the consumption of electricity.
In the electrical energy transformation process, the grid-level energy storage system plays an essential role in balancing power generation and utilization. Batteries have considerable potential for application to grid-level energy storage systems because of their rapid response, modularization, and flexible installation.
Large-scale battery storage technologies can be a practical way to maximize the contribution of variable renewable electricity generation sources (particularly wind and solar).
