International energy storage alliance goals

Why is international collaboration important for energy storage?

In addition, through emphasizing the relative strengths of each party, international collaboration will strengthen the development of energy storage as an international sector, in turn raising its profile both internationally and nationally.

What are industrial energy storage systems (ESS)?

Industrial ESS are located e.g. in wind or PV farms and integrate decentralized medium power renewables into the grid. Utility battery energy storage systems can be combined with high power renewable energy sources and connected to the medium voltage (MV) grid directly or via MV transformer.

Why should Vietnam invest in battery energy storage systems?

Vietnam also participated in the BESS consortium launch showing its commitment to clean energy transition. Battery Energy Storage Systems are a critical element to increasing the reliability of grids and accommodating the variable renewable energy sources that are needed to power economic development.

Can energy storage be a key tool for achieving a low-carbon future?

One of the key goals of this new roadmap is to understand and communicate the value of energy storage to energy system stakeholders. Energy storage technologies are valuable components in most energy systems and could be an important tool in achieving a low-carbon future.

Are energy storage systems competitive?

These technologies allow for the decoupling of energy supply and demand, in essence providing
 a valuable resource to system operators. There are many cases where energy storage deployment is competitive or near-competitive in today’s energy system.
