CAISO OpinionCAISO Opinion Storage facilities can provide a number of benefits that will Storage facilities can provide a number of benefits that will
help with the integration of large amounts of renewable help with the integration of large amounts of renewable resources. resources.
Storage provides a mechanism for saving off-peak energy Storage provides a mechanism for saving off-peak energy production from wind generation and delivering the energy production from wind generation and delivering the energy during on-peak periods. during on-peak periods.
Some storage technologies can also provide Ancillary Services Some storage technologies can also provide Ancillary Services such as regulation and contingency reserves and reactive such as regulation and contingency reserves and reactive power for voltage support.power for voltage support.
The major barrier for construction of new storage facilities is The major barrier for construction of new storage facilities is not the technology but the absence of market mechanisms that not the technology but the absence of market mechanisms that recognize the value of the storage facilities and financially recognize the value of the storage facilities and financially compensate the owners for the services and benefits they can compensate the owners for the services and benefits they can provide.provide.
