Storage Systems

The storage systems installed downstream of an energy production plant from renewable sources allow to:

✓ encourage the dispatching of electricity during the hours in which market prices are more favourable, with a consequent increase in revenues from energy sales

✓ recover the energy produced and not fed into the grid in the event of disconnection of the system;

✓ reduce dispatching costs;

✓ access the dispatching market through: Demand Response, UVAM, Fast Reserve;

✓ regulate the network frequency ensuring the balance between the power supplied and the power requested by the network;

✓ satisfy peaks in demand through the energy accumulated during the hours of greatest production of renewable source plants;

✓ encourage greater development of renewable energy sources: by coupling a renewable source system with a storage system, the variability of the power supplied to the point of connection to the grid is reduced, thus better facilitating the integration of renewables;

✓ allow restoration services of generation plants in the event of network failure;

✓ reduce the use of diesel with consequent reduction CO2 emissionsand primary pollutants.
