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).
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.
Large-scale battery storage technologies can be a practical way to maximize the contribution of variable renewable electricity generation sources (particularly wind and solar).
Tesla, a US company, commissioned the world’s largest Li-ion battery storage capacity of 100 MW / 129 MWh at the 315 MW Hornsdale Wind Farm in South Australia to provide contingency reserves and frequency regulation services to the South Australia grid.
