The latest version of the energy storage cloud platform management regulations

Does energy storage need a regulatory framework?

Currently, no jurisdiction provides a comprehensive regulatory framework for energy storage. Instead, most jurisdictions define storage as 'generation' for licensing and other regulatory purposes.

What is a cloud-based energy management system?

In this sense, cloud-based energy management systems consist of an intelligent system that provides access, control and transmission of data applications, decision support, remote control, monitoring of consumption and energy generation and storage systems [ 11 ].

What is cloud energy storage?

Cloud energy storage (CES) in the power systems is a novel idea for the consumers to get rid of the expensive distributed energy storages (DESs) and to move to using a cloud service centre as a virtual capacity.

How is energy storage currently defined?

Our review demonstrates that no jurisdiction currently provides a comprehensive regulatory framework for energy storage, with the majority of jurisdictions currently allowing storage to be defined as “generation” for the purposes of licensing and other regulatory requirements.

Should energy storage be regulated?

A robust regulatory framework would reflect storage’s unique ability to act as generation and consumption and remove the need to pay end-user electricity consumption charges. The vast majority of countries do not have a specific subsidy regime.

Can energy storage planning maximize the platform operator's revenue?

Based on the analysis of the users' energy storage application modes and the upper bound of service fee payment, an energy storage planning strategy to maximize the platform operator's revenue is proposed.
