What is Energy Storage System (ESS) and its role in Grid?

Energy Storage System (ESS)  Methods of generating electricity by renewable energy such as wind power and solar power, rather than the methods by conventional power plants are becoming important  both politically and technically not only in Korea but also around the world. In the case of Korea, the importance of renewable energy is emphasized as the country pushes for the "2050 carbon neutrality" policy. However, there are certainly drawbacks to renewable energy. Wind power and solar power are the representative sources of renewable energy. Wind power generators are affected by wind speed, and photovoltaic  generators by solar radiation. Because of this inherent nature of renewable energy, the amount of power output from renewable energy is highly volatile. Many studies to reduce this volatility  are going on , and in this post, we will first learn about ESS and how it is typically utilized to decrease bad natures of renewable energy and eventually to help stabilize power gri
