In recent days, a wide variation of load demand is observed in power system. Furthermore, the introduction of various renewable energies into the grid has imposed a great challenges to the power grid operators. In this context, the energy storage technologies (ESTs) play a major role for managing the load variation as well as generation variation.
Moreover, the load in power system is also varying from time to time. The seasonal variation as well as daily variation of the load curve imposed a great challenge to the power system researchers for managing the demand. In this context, the storage of energy is a viable solution for managing the load variation as well as the generation variation.
In this case, the energy storage side connects the source and load ends, which needs to fully meet the demand for output storage on the power side and provide enough electricity to the load side, so a large enough energy storage capacity configuration is a must.
