Distributed energy storage is a solution for increasing self-consumption of variable renewable energy such as solar and wind energy at the end user site. Small-scale energy storage systems can be centrally coordinated by "aggregation" to offer different services to the grid, such as operational flexibility and peak shaving.
It particularly studied DES in terms of types, technological features, application domains, policy landscape, and the faced challenges and prospective solutions. Distributed energy systems are an integral part of the sustainable energy transition. DES avoid/minimize transmission and distribution setup, thus saving on cost and losses.
Distributed energy systems offer better efficiency, flexibility, and economy as compared to centralized generation systems. Given its advantages, the decentralization of the energy sector through distributed energy systems is regarded as one of the key dimensions of the 21st-century energy transition .
Distributed energy systems are an integral part of the sustainable energy transition. DES avoid/minimize transmission and distribution setup, thus saving on cost and losses. DES can be typically classified into three categories: grid connectivity, application-level, and load type.
From modelling method perspective, this implies that models of the electricity system should account for the trade-offs between private and system benefits of energy storage aggregation. Yet it is unlikely that consumers will allow an aggregator to control their resources at all unless they are paid a financial incentive to do so .
Methodology/results: We employ a stylized model that captures essential features of an energy distribution system, including convex costs, stochastic demand, storage efficiency, and line losses. Using dynamic programming, we optimize storage operations and derive value function properties that are key to analyzing the storage investment decisions.
