Does a grid-level battery energy storage system perform energy arbitrage?
The present work proposes a long-term techno-economic profitability analysis considering the net profit stream of a grid-level battery energy storage system (BESS) performing energy arbitrage as a grid service.
Are battery energy storage systems a low-carbon flexible resource?
In the modern power network, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are playing a crucial role as low-carbon flexible resources, due to their ability to address renewable energy intermittency and to provide a wide range of grid services (e.g., energy arbitrage, frequency regulation, load-shifting) .
Does battery degradation affect Bess profitability?
We found that, even without degradation, the break-even investment cost that makes the BESS profitable with a power to-energy-ratio of 1 MW/2MWh is 210 $/kWh. By implementing a cycle-counting degradation model, we observed a remarkable battery degradation on BESS profitability corresponding to a yearly net profit reduction in the 13–24 % range.
Do investors underestimate the value of energy storage?
While energy storage is already being deployed to support grids across major power markets, new McKinsey analysis suggests investors often underestimate the value of energy storage in their business cases.
Is a longer battery life an economic advantage?
This longer lifetime due to reduced battery cycling leads to lower profits in the initial BESS operating periods, but over the entire BESS lifetime it has to be considered as an economic advantage. Finally, comparing the MILP and MINLP scenario, no significant differences were found.
