While a microgrid is in the on-grid mode, itcan receive energy from the main grid, and the energy storage system should make the longest cycle life as its optimal goal, and choose the appropriate type of energy storage system according to the maximum power and fluctuation of PV/wind power.
However, increasingly, microgrids are being based on energy storage systems combined with renewable energy sources (solar, wind, small hydro), usually backed up by a fossil fuel-powered generator. The main advantage of a microgrid: higher reliability.
However, there are still several issues such as microgrid stability, power and energy management, reliability and power quality that make microgrids implementation challenging. Nevertheless, the energy storage system is proposed as a promising solution to overcome the aforementioned challenges.
As discussed in the earlier sections, some features are preferred when deploying energy storage systems in microgrids. These include energy density, power density, lifespan, safety, commercial availability, and financial/ technical feasibility. Lead-acid batteries have lower energy and power densities than other electrochemical devices.
Concerning the storage needs of microgrids, electrochemical technologies seem more adapted to this kind of application. They are competitive and available in the market, as well as having an acceptable degree of cost-effectiveness, good power, and energy densities, and maturity.
