Design and analysis of electrical energy storage demonstration projects on UK distribution networks

摘要

The UK government's CO2 emissions targets will require electrification of much of the country's infrastructure with low carbon technologies such as photovoltaic panels, electric vehicles and heat pumps. The large scale proliferation of these technologies will necessitate major changes to the planning and operation of distribution networks. Distribution network operators are trialling electrical energy storage (EES) across their networks to increase their understanding of the contribution that it can make to enable the expected paradigm shift in generation and consumption of electricity.
