Variable power is produced by several renewable energy sources, including solar and wind. Storage systems can help to balance out the supply and demand imbalances that this produces. Electricity must be used promptly when it is generated or transformed into storable forms.
Hydropower is the most frequently used mechanical energy storage method, having been in use for centuries. For almost a century, large hydroelectric dams have served as energy storage facilities. Concerns about air pollution, energy imports, and global warming have sparked an increase in renewable energy sources, including solar and wind power.
Pumped-storage is a common type of energy storage. Hydroelectric power is generally used to store excess grid power. Electricity from the grid is often used to pump water up into a tank or lake when demand is low. Water is permitted to flow from an upper reservoir to a lower reservoir when demand spikes.
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.
Our solar PV systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
