Energy storage requirements in photovoltaic power plants are reviewed. Li-ion and flywheel technologies are suitable for fulfilling the current grid codes. Supercapacitors will be preferred for providing future services. Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services. [pdf]
[FAQS about Energy storage in photovoltaic power plants]
The results show that (i) the current grid codes require high power – medium energy storage, being Li-Ion batteries the most suitable technology, (ii) for complying future grid code requirements high power – low energy – fast response storage will be required, where super capacitors can be the preferred option, (iii) other technologies such as Lead Acid and Nickel Cadmium batteries are adequate for supporting the black start services, (iv) flow batteries and Lithium Ion technology can be used for market oriented services and (v) the best location of the energy storage within the photovoltaic power plays an important role and depends on the service, but still little research has been performed in this field.
