How much power can a Bess generate?
The BESS can bid 30 MW and 119 MWh of its capacity directly into the market for energy arbitrage, while the rest is withheld for maintaining grid frequency during unexpected outages until other, slower generators can be brought online (AEMO 2018).
Why do we need a Bess system?
Deploying BESS can help defer or circum-vent the need for new grid investments by meeting peak demand with energy stored from lower-demand periods, thereby reducing congestion and improving overall transmission and distribution asset utilization.
Should a Bess be split into two or more distinct units?
It may be decided to split the BESS into two or more distinct units for connection at multiple points in the network. This can be done to allow multiple sections to function independently with BESS support, as well as provide redundancy in system design. The type of connection should be decided early.
