Energy Storage Applications Summary
This overview provides a summary of the different energy storage applications, focused mainly on the electricity system, in order to illustrate the many services that energy storage can provide. The forms are organised according to the segment of the energy system that benefits from a given service; this categorisation does not necessarily reflect the location in which the storage device is installed. The terms for individual services, as well as their maturity (existing service vs emerging or future service) varies across different EU Member States:
- Services to Support Generation/Services to Support Bulk Storage
- Ancillary Services
- Services to Support Transmission Infrastructure
- Services to Support Distribution Infrastructure
- Services to Support Customer Energy Management
