Energy storage supports the energy transition

Generating electricity from renewable sources means volatility – and energy storage inverter is the key to matching supply and demand.
Due to the unpredictability of the weather, renewable energy generation varies greatly. In some cases, renewable energy plants end up generating more electricity than is actually needed for current demand. Energy storage inverters solve this problem by storing excess energy and making it available later as needed. The electricity can then be taken from the stored energy and fed into the grid or the home use.
Energy storage inverter can integrate renewable energy sources by transferring energy to periods of high demand, or provide grid services such as frequency control or rotating backup. Energy storage inverters can also be used in the form of thermal and cooling energy or as a synthetic fuel, for example for transport. In addition to being a key component of renewable energy expansion and ensuring a sustainable, reliable and economic electricity supply, energy storage systems are also an important element of the so-called “sectoral coupling”.

Energy storage inverter offer a wide range of technical approaches to managing our power supply to create a more resilient energy infrastructure and deliver cost savings to utilities and consumers. To help understand the various approaches currently being deployed around the world, we have grouped them into five main categories.

Batteries – a range of electrochemical storage solutions, including advanced chemical batteries, liquid flow batteries and capacitors
Thermal – capturing heat and cold to generate energy on demand or to offset energy demand
Mechanical storage – other innovative technologies that use kinetic or gravitational energy to store electrical energy
Hydrogen – excess electricity generation can be converted to hydrogen and stored through electrolysis
Pumped hydro storage – using water to create large scale energy reserves

How Can Energy Storage Solution Help Me?

Energy storage inverter offers new application flexibility and unlock new business value across the energy value chain, from conventional power generation, transmission and distribution, and renewable energy to residential, industrial and commercial sectors. Energy storage inverter supports a wide range of applications, including consolidating renewable energy production, stabilising the grid, controlling energy flows, optimising asset operations and generating new revenues.
For renewable energy developers, energy storage inverters offers a faster alternative to PPAs, which can take a year or more. For utilities, energy storage inverter is associated with increased distributed generation.
Energy storage inverters can help you improve the dispatchability and predictability of renewable energy and help meet stringent codes and connection permits.

How do Energy Storage Inverter Work?

Energy storage inverters are essential because the intermediate stored energy can be used to consume or feed into the utility grid. This is because the energy stored in the battery is direct current (DC). In contrast, the utility grid and the usual loads (electronic devices, motors) use alternating current (AC).

The battery inverter converts the DC power from the battery storage system into AC power.
This AC power can now be fed into the home or commercial grid or the utility grid.
The battery inverter always keeps the output voltage and frequency stable, preventing fluctuations and thus damage to the load.
The energy transition poses a major challenge to grid stability, as the decentralized generation of renewable energy sources is more difficult to control in terms of infrastructure utilization. Battery inverters therefore make a major contribution to the success of the energy transition.
