Get a quoteAn energy storage system capable of serving long durations could be used for short durations, too. Recharging after a short usage period could ultimately affect the number of full cycles before performance declines. Likewise, keeping a longer-duration system at a full charge may not make sense.
When we talk about energy storage duration, we’re referring to the time it takes to charge or discharge a unit at maximum power. Let’s break it down: Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS): Lithium-ion BESS typically have a duration of 1–4 hours. This means they can provide energy services at their maximum power capacity for that timeframe.
Rated power capacity is the total possible instantaneous discharge capability (in kilowatts [kW] or megawatts [MW]) of the BESS, or the maximum rate of discharge that the BESS can achieve, starting from a fully charged state. Storage duration is the amount of time storage can discharge at its power capacity before depleting its energy capacity.
If the grid has a very high load for eight hours and the storage only has a 6-hour duration, the storage system cannot be at full capacity for eight hours. So, its ELCC and its contribution will only be a fraction of its rated power capacity. An energy storage system capable of serving long durations could be used for short durations, too.
However, they do have constraints to consider, including cyclic life and degradation of effectiveness. All battery-based energy storage systems have a “cyclic life,” or the number of charging and discharging cycles, depending on how much of the battery’s capacity is normally used.
Both of these issues can be resolved by energy storage systems (ESS). The required connection power of an EV charging plaza, i.e., peak load, can be decreased by levelling the power demand by an ESS: the ESS is charged during low EV charging power demand and discharged during high power demand.
