6 FAQs about [How to connect energy storage power generation to the grid]
Can energy storage be connected without exceeding network limits?
In some areas of the network, it is not possible to connect further amounts of generation or energy storage without exceeding network limits. These areas would require significant network modifications or upstream reinforcements to accommodate new connections in an unconstrained manner.
What are the different storage requirements for grid services?
Examples of the different storage requirements for grid services include: Ancillary Services – including load following, operational reserve, frequency regulation, and 15 minutes fast response. Relieving congestion and constraints: short-duration (power application, stability) and long-duration (energy application, relieve thermal loading).
Why do we need energy storage?
In simple terms, it can allow the capture of generated energy when it is supplemental to needs, so that it can be stored and released at times when it is needed, for example, at times of peak demand. It provides the ability to instantaneously balance power supply and demand.
Do I need to connect a new generator to the electricity network?
If you’re thinking of installing a new generator (such as solar panels, wind turbines) to the electricity network it will need to be connected to our network either through your existing supply or through a new electricity connection.
Can two projects share a grid connection?
The amendment allows two projects to share one grid connection and receive separate tarifs based on their individual generating capacity, provided that at least one project is owned by a community organisation. Both parties sharing the grid connection will be required to seek support under the FITs scheme.
Will electric storage play a larger role in Islanded systems?
Eventually electric storage will play a larger role in islanded systems by helping to stabilize generation and load variations. Island system applications do provide some early examples of the stabilizing support needed when renewable are added to islanded (weak electrical) systems. Various types of ES-DER systems are emerging.
