Can portable energy storage systems complement transmission expansion?

Portable energy storage systems can complement transmission expansion by enabling fast, flexible, and cost-efficient responses to renewable integration that is crucial for a timely and cost-effective energy transition.

What is a utility-scale portable energy storage system (PESS)?

In this work, we first introduce the concept of utility-scale portable energy storage systems (PESS) and discuss the economics of a practical design that consists of an electric truck, energy storage, and necessary energy conversion systems.

What are the development directions for mobile energy storage technologies?

Development directions in mobile energy storage technologies are envisioned. Carbon neutrality calls for renewable energies, and the efficient use of renewable energies requires energy storage mediums that enable the storage of excess energy and reuse after spatiotemporal reallocation.

Can Utility-scale energy storage be portable through trucking?

Making utility-scale energy storage portable through trucking unlocks its capability to provide various on-demand services. We introduce potential applications of utility-scale portable energy storage systems that consist of electric trucks, energy storage, and necessary ancillary systems.

Is spatiotemporal arbitrage a profitable grid application for utility-scale energy storage?

In fact, the spatiotemporal arbitrage could generate revenue high enough to recover the upfront cost of the storage system and becomes one of the most profitable grid applications for utility-scale energy storage in California.

How can energy storage improve the economic viability of energy storage?

Improving the economic viability of energy storage with smarter and more efficient utilization schemes can support more rapid penetrations of renewables and cost-effectively accelerate decarbonization.
