Declining costs of energy storage technologies, particularly lithium-ion battery storage, opens the potential for larger capacity and longer-duration energy storage projects to provide a broader
The Energy Storage Computational Tool was developed by Navigant, now Guidehouse. Other modeling tools include BSET (PNNL), StorageVET (EPRI), DER-CAM (LBNL), Permanent Load-Shifting Cost- Effectiveness Tool (E3), Qwest (Sandia National Laboratories), and ES-GRID (DNV).
These devices, including PSH, have operational limitations and behaviors that are not entirely captured with nameplate ratings or single value specifications. An energy storage system could act as a generator, a load, or a transmission/distribution resource.
Energy storage systems face a unique challenge when attempting to assign value to the services they can provide. An energy storage system could act as a generator, a load, or a transmission/distribution resource.
Our systems-level approach guides basic science and research to develop and characterize high-performing materials and components with a focus on reliability, longevity, and durability to protect critical energy infrastructure. Search the NREL Publications Database to access our full library of energy storage publications.
Xu et al. (2017) introduces an energy storage planning problem formulated as a bi-level model. This model, when used in conjunction with traditional system expansion planning tools, can provide input for the deployment of energy storage resources in an Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) study.
Energy storage dispatch and capabilities on the demand side are typically represented in an aggregate manner, for example by zone, by distribution substation (or feeder), or by customer group.
