The reduction in PV prices and interest in energy independence accelerate the adoption of residential battery storage. This storage can support various functions of an energy system undergoing decarbonization. In this work, operative benefits of storage from the system perspective, namely, generation cost reduction and congestion mitigation, are investigated.
Over the past decade, global installed capacity of solar photovoltaic (PV) has dramatically increased as part of a shift from fossil fuels towards reliable, clean, efficient and sustainable fuels (Kousksou et al., 2014, Santoyo-Castelazo and Azapagic, 2014).PV technology integrated with energy storage is necessary to store excess PV power generated for later use
Among all renewable energy sources, solar photovoltaic (PV) technology has a huge potential in alleviating pollution, reducing CO2 emissions and addressing energy demand pressures (Sen and Ganguly, 2017). Therefore, promoting solar PV technology has become a vital part of sustainable development strategie worldwide. In the last few decades, driven by
By September 2023, Germany has installed more than 1 million residential energy storage systems and expects to add more than 400,000 units per year in the future. Volatile energy prices and the popularity of photovoltaic self-use have driven demand for residential energy storage, which is expected to continue to grow through 2030.

ENERGY STORAGE. Thanks to a sharp fall in PV rooftop system prices in recent years, many . electricity customer segments in Germany (e.g. private households and SMEs) are now able to produce PV electricity more cheaply from their roofs than buying electricity from the grid. Today, the FIT for a rooftop project is already below the
In light of the energy crisis in 2021 and regulatory drivers such as increased requirements due to the implementation of the EU Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the demand for green electricity on the market has also increased significantly. In order to achieve the decarbonisation targets that have been set, a transformation on the procurement side can increasingly be
