Technical FAQs 4

Where is storage located in a power plant?

Storage can be located at a power plant, as a stand-alone resource on the transmission system, on the distribution system and at a customer’s premise behind the meter. Do wind and solar need storage? All power systems need flexibility, and this need increases with increased levels of wind and solar.

Why do we need energy storage?

Because power systems are balanced at the system level, no dedicated backup with energy storage is needed for any single technology. Storage is most economical when operated to maximise the economic benefit of an entire system. Don’t we need storage to reduce curtailment?

What is a wind-solar hybrid power system?

A new energy storage technology combining gravity, solar, and wind energy storage. The reciprocal nature of wind and sun, the ill-fated pace of electricity supply, and the pace of commitment of wind-solar hybrid power systems.

What is dedicated energy storage?

Dedicated energy storage ignores the realities of both grid operation and the performance of a large, spatially diverse renewable energy source. Because power systems are balanced at the system level, no dedicated backup with energy storage is needed for any single technology.
