OverviewConstructionSafetyOperating characteristicsMarket development and deploymentSee also

A battery energy storage system (BESS), battery storage power station, battery energy grid storage (BEGS) or battery grid storage is a type of energy storage technology that uses a group of batteries in the grid to store electrical energy. Battery storage is the fastest responding dispatchable source of power on electric grids, and it is used to stabilise those grids, as battery storage can transition from standby to full power in under a second to deal with grid contingencies.

Battery storage systems

Battery storage systems are a key element in the energy transition, since they can store excess renewable energy and make it available when it is needed most. At times when the generation from wind farms or solar farms there exceeds the capacity of the grid infrastructure, battery storage systems can help "iron out" these peaks.
