Buffering Batteries: The Grid Enhancing Technology No One Calls A GET

Buffering batteries placed near transmission constraints are rarely listed among grid enhancing technologies. The usual list includes advanced conductors, dynamic line rating, and power flow control devices. All of those technologies increase the instantaneous capacity of transmission lines. Batteries do not do that. A battery cannot turn a 500 MW ... [continued] The post Buffering Batteries: The Grid Enhancing Technology No One Calls A GET appeared first on CleanTechnica.
