Requirements and Benefits of Grid Storage

Benefits of Energy Storage. Electric energy time-shift, or arbitrage as its otherwise known, allows the purchasing or generation of energy during low-demand times at low cost and making it available for sale or use at high-demand times avoiding the relatively high cost of energy during those periods. [1] Peak demand usually occurs on weekdays
