It highlights the importance of considering multiple factors, including technical performance, economic viability, scalability, and system integration, in selecting ESTs. The need for continued research and development, policy support, and collaboration between energy stakeholders is emphasized to drive further advancements in energy storage.
The sizing and placement of energy storage systems (ESS) are critical factors in improving grid stability and power system performance. Numerous scholarly articles highlight the importance of the ideal ESS placement and sizing for various power grid applications, such as microgrids, distribution networks, generating, and transmission [167, 168].
Energy storage is used to facilitate the integration of renewable energy in buildings and to provide a variable load for the consumer. TESS is a reasonably commonly used for buildings and communities to when connected with the heating and cooling systems.
