Energy storage (ES) can deliver value to utility customers by leveling building demand and reducing demand charges. With increasing distributed energy generation and greater building demand variability, utilities have raised demand charges and are even including them in residential electricity bills.
In the in-day optimization stage, based on the optimized output curve, taking real-time demand response into account, the real-time charge-discharge power of energy storage is adjusted dynamically with the goal of minimizing income loss, thus to realize adaptive adjustment of distributed energy storage and eliminate the risk of income loss.
Distributed energy storage is also a means of providing grid or network services which can provide an additional economic benefit from the storage device. Electrical energy storage is shown to be a complementary technology to CHP systems and may also be considered in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, thermal energy storage.
Demand charges are based on peak power, not energy, and therefore energy storage technologies have unique value potential for demand charge reduction since energy storage capital costs are a stronger function of energy stored than power delivered.
Tomislav Capuder, in Energy Reports, 2022 Distributed ESSs are connected to the distribution level and can provide flexibility to the system by, for example smoothing the renewable generation output, supplying power during high demand periods, and storing power during low demand periods (Chouhan and Ferdowsi, 2009).
Applying a demand charge of $10/kW-month, which is on the high end of residential demand charges, this household would pay $56.40 in demand charge for the month of January. Energy storage devices could level this demand by charging during low demand hours and discharging during peak demand hours.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%.
