Battery energy storage systems can enable EV fast charging build-out in areas with limited power grid capacity, reduce charging and utility costs through peak shaving, and boost energy storage capacity to allow for EV charging in the event of a power grid disruption or outage.
When an EV requests power from a battery-buffered direct current fast charging (DCFC) station, the battery energy storage system can discharge stored energy rapidly, providing EV charging at a rate far greater than the rate at which it draws energy from the power grid. Why Consider Battery Energy Storage?
For another example, review the Joint Offce of Energy and Transportation's (Joint Offce's) technical assistance case study Grid-Constrained Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Sites: Battery-Buffered Options. A battery energy storage system can help manage DCFC energy use to reduce strain on the power grid during high-cost times of day.
Incorporating energy storage into EV charging infrastructure ensures a resilient power supply, even during grid fluctuations or outages. This reliability is crucial for businesses that rely on EV fleets for daily operations, as well as municipalities working toward sustainable public transportation solutions.
