COVER STORY: ENERGY STORAGE
The Year Energy Storage Hit Its Stride
Technology innovations, market need, policy support, and lower prices are all teeing up energy storage to become a familiar part of grids worldwide. The implications for variable renewable generation should be obvious, but more extensive use of gridtied storage could also affect fossil units. For example, certain storage technologies sited with gas-fired units could improve start-up times, efficiencies, and heat rates. http://accessintelligence.imirus.com/Mpowered/book/vpow14/i5/p26
