Storage of electrical energy in the energy system

Abstract

In the context of the construction of renewable energy sources in distribution electric networks, it is necessary to first of all assess the balance reliability, i.e. determine the probability of mismatch of consumption and generation schedules, caused by the instability of such energy sources as the sun and wind. The use of energy accumulators provides a solution to a number of problems of energy accumulation, storage and conversion [1, 2]. The problems of developing and creating highly efficient means of accumulating electric and thermal energy, creating a methodology for calculating the optimal parameters of accumulation systems, which will allow to ensure reliability requirements in the most economically advantageous way, are becoming relevant.
