Abstract: A mobile energy storage system (MESS) is a localizable transportable storage system that provides various utility services. These services include load leveling, load shifting, losses minimization, and energy arbitrage. A MESS is also controlled for voltage regulation in weak grids.
Tech-economic performance of fixed and mobile energy storage system is compared. The proposed method can improve system economics and renewable shares. With the large-scale integration of renewable energy and changes in load characteristics, the power system is facing challenges of volatility and instability.
The primary advantage that mobile energy storage offers over stationary energy storage is flexibility. MESSs can be re-located to respond to changing grid conditions, serving different applications as the needs of the power system evolve.
