Grid-Scale Energy Storage Systems and Applications provides a timely introduction to state-of-the-art technologies and important demonstration projects in this rapidly developing field. Written with a view to real-world applications, the authors describe storage technologies, then go on to cover operation and control, system integration and battery management, among other topics significant for those designing storage systems. The rapidly-developing area of electrochemical energy storage technology and its implementation in the power grid is covered in particular detail.? Examples of Chinese pilot projects in new energy grids and micro grips are also included, which can be used as references by those developing storage for the new energy grid.? Drawing on significant Chinese results in this area, but also including data from abroad, this will be a valuable reference on the development of grid-scale energy storage for engineers and scientists in power and energy transmission companies and researchers in academia.
