Two special studies present additional analytics on energy storage procurement cost-effectiveness: future procurements to meet resource adequacy (Attachment B) and gas-fired peaker replacements (Attachment C).
Grid Charging: “Grid charging” refers to the charging of the energy storage system from energy on the power grid (as opposed to a paired energy generation resource, such as wind or solar).
The US power grid operates on an AC current at 60 Hz. Most renewable generation (wind and solar) and battery energy storage generate direct current, meaning that the flow of electrons is in only one direction. A transformer is required to transform this DC into AC so that it can be transmitted onto the power grid.
Report explores procurement options and agreements that may be useful to federal agencies interested in implementing microgrids at their sites. The free, online REopt platform is designed to help building owners, developers, utilities, researchers, and everyday citizens understand their optimal energy solution.
The goal of this attachment is to highlight effective energy storage procurement policies and programs in other states that might be helpful to the CPUC as it seeks to break down barriers to cost-effective
This chapter supports procurement of energy storage systems (ESS) and services, primarily through the development of procurement documents such as Requests for Proposal (RFPs), Power Purchase
