Summary Of BESS Use Cases
Ancillary Services: A range of services used to help maintain grid stability, such as frequency response. Renewables Integration: Helps ensure an efficient use of energy produced from renewables Grid Support: Managing transmission and distribution network constraints Resource Adequacy: Providing power capacity that can be deployed in peak demand periods to ease strain on grids Energy Arbitrage: Storing energy when prices are low and selling it when prices are high, maximizing profits

BESS projects are versatile assets that can provide a vast array of uses to any power grid (“grid-following”), or by generating their own grid (“grid-forming”) either to off-grid locations or to grid-connected locations choosing to island from the main grid. While BESS projects enable deeper penetration of renewable energy on a grid, there are five leading use-cases that account for most of the revenue earned by a project:
