Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a technology that stores electrical energy in batteries and then releases it as needed. It serves as a means to store surplus electricity generated during periods of low demand or high renewable energy production and subsequently discharges that stored energy when demand is higher or renewable energy sources are not generating enough power. This helps to balance the supply and demand of electricity and contributes to a more stable and reliable power grid.
The advancement of battery technology, coupled with decreasing costs, has made Battery Energy Storage Systems increasingly viable and important in the transition to more sustainable and resilient energy systems.
