Abstract: Renewable generation on the electric power grid is expected to increase in prevalence, but once this technology reaches a certain level of penetration, the grid will not be able to handle the variability and intermittency of the generation without the inclusion of energy storage systems. Simultaneous with this increase in renewables with
