The cost and optimisation of PV can be reduced with the integration of load management and energy storage systems. This review paper sets out the range of energy storage options for photovoltaics including both electrical and thermal energy storage systems.
Storage helps solar contribute to the electricity supply even when the sun isn’t shining. It can also help smooth out variations in how solar energy flows on the grid. These variations are attributable to changes in the amount of sunlight that shines onto photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) systems.
Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling.
The integration of PV and energy storage in smart buildings and outlines the role of energy storage for PV in the context of future energy storage options. The authors would like to acknowledge the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 657466 (INPATH-TES) and the ERC starter grant No. 639760.
Under the existence of intermittent solar resource, electrical energy storage (EES) can continue to maintain the stability of the power grid in an effective and economically feasible manner.
