With growing solar PV installations and further gaining up in renewable power capacity additions clubbed with enticing business for electric vehicles in India, the rationale behind the battery energy storage systems (BESS) is certain to embellish and gather momentum in the country.
By 2030, the LCOS for standalone BESS system would be Rs 4.1/kWh and that for co-located system would be Rs 3.8/kWh. This implies that adding diurnal flexibility to ~20-25% of the RE generation would cost an additional Rs 0.7-0.8/kWh by 2030. What is the value of energy storage in India? How would it be dispatched? How much storage is required?
Costs and benefits of ESS projects are analyzed for different types of ownerships. We summarize market policies for ESS participating in different wholesale markets. Energy storage systems (ESS) are increasingly deployed in both transmission and distribution grids for various benefits, especially for improving renewable energy penetration.
Such an evaluation is especially important for emerging energy storage technologies such as BESS. In contrast with extensive research on the various grid applications of ESS, cost-benefit analysis is seldom studied for these applications.
Although ESS bring a diverse range of benefits to utilities and customers, realizing the wide-scale adoption of energy storage necessitates evaluating the costs and benefits of ESS in a comprehensive and systematic manner. Such an evaluation is especially important for emerging energy storage technologies such as BESS.
