Introduction

Project Description

Project 140 - Energy Storage Requirements for the SA Grid

The aim of this project is to determine the requirements for energy storage in South Australia, so that the power generated in renewable energy generation may be delivered to consumers consistently and reliably. This is explored by the development of software tools and a database, to obtain, store and maintain energy data. The potential uses of this database is explored, both how it can be used broadly, and how it can be used in the context this project. Finally, a case study is undertaken in which the obtained data is used to explore the effect of battery storage on the output of a wind farm; and how intelligently managing the battery energy storage system can improve results.
