The power quality of the grid is greatly affected by the power fluctuation in this frequency band. A short term storage device can be used to suppress the fluctuation of wind power in this frequency band. Therefore, a storage device which is capable of realizing its energy in a short interval of time has many applications in wind power system.
"Thanks to the integration of the battery-storage system with a capacity of 2.6 MWh, 60% of the electricity supply now comes from solar energy. The island''s grid quality was also improved once
