Lithium-ion energy storage systems (ESS) are crucial for integrating renewable energy at a local level, particularly in decentralized grids and households. They enhance energy self-sufficiency, improve efficiency, and reduce peak demand while enabling the development of micro-grids for more localized power distribution. The market for ESS is expected to grow significantly as lower-cost photovoltaic (PV) options become more accessible.

1. Smart Energy for Smart Home

2. Why Lithium- ion ESS?
Energy Storage System (ESS) as a key requirement of Renewable
Energy and its size varies on two dimensions:
POWER How much electricity can be discharged at one time?
ENERGY How many hours can be discharged continuously?
Lithium-ion batteries are better
suited for small, neighborhood-
scale storage scattered at key
stress points and play a key-role in
future energy storage- especially
in decentralized grids and
households.

3. Energy Storage Values
FOR HOUSEHOLD
Energy self-sufficient (local production=local consumption)
Safe against outages
High efficiency
Sell excess of PV energy when demand is high
FOR GRID OPERATOR
Reduce peak demand
Avoid disturbances
-voltage, frequency…
Defer grid upgrades
SOCIO-ECONOMIC
Allow to increase PV electricity in energy mix
Facilitate energy savings

4. PV+ESS=Micro Grid ≈ Smart Grid
Micro-grids present the opportunity for countries to develop
a cell-phone type of model for power distribution whereby
regions without certification can have a regional power
source that allows for local access.
This market is projected to become signification in the next
several years, as the access to lower cost PV markets this
option more easily implemented.

5. Goals of Smart Grid
These may reflect the gradual progression to a Smart Grid,
but may also be due to challenges with homeowner adoption
and effective use of feedback systems.
1. Operate as a 24/7 background processor to manage in an
intelligent manner electrical energy usage in homes or
small businesses.
2. Exploit the flexibility that consumers generally have in the
timing of their electricity usage to induce changes in their
electricity consuming patterns through time-varying
electricity pricing.
3. Manage energy consumption profiles to reduce peak
electric demand and reduce consumers’ electric bills.
