Frequency Regulation, Spinning Reserve, Voltage Control, and Other Fast Response Energy Storage Applications: Technology Analysis and Forecasts
Stationary energy storage will have a large role to play in the electricity grid of the future. Demand is being driven by several key trends, including the proliferation of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, the onset of the smart grid concept and a shift to plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles. Energy storage systems (ESS) are being developed by technology providers in a wide range of solutions, from batteries, flywheels and mechanical storage. One key emerging area within the ESS market is the Ancillary Services sector, which includes applications such as frequency regulation, spinning reserve, voltage control, and other fast response services.

ESS systems providing ancillary services offer sustained energy requirements of typically less than one hour, and often minutes or seconds, and a response time that is often near-instantaneous. The technologies best suited to provide ancillary services are lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries and flywheels, although it anticipates that a range of technologies and configurations will compete in this market.
