Abstract
This presentation highlights the relevance of battery storage as a means to electrical power resiliency against climate change, ageing grids and renewable power fluctuations. The presentation is scoped to the move of centralized to decentralized distributed architecture as a result of grid-scale battery deployment at the distribution network level. A case study on solar power fluctuation at a distribution level feeder circuit is illustrated with the deployment of energy storage to smoothen the fluctuations. An overview of different types of storage applications and maturity of energy storage technologies is presented, albeit the fact that battery price is falling rapidly within these few years. Insight into some battery projects, including a microgrid, completed in the Asia Pacific region is also shared in this presentation.
