2. Grid energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_energy_storage

   Grid energy storage, also known as large-scale energy storage, are technologies connected to the electrical power grid that store energy for later use. These systems help balance supply and demand by storing excess electricity from variable renewables such as solar and inflexible sources like nuclear power , releasing it when needed.

3. Stand-alone power system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-alone_power_system

   A stand-alone power system (SAPS or SPS), also known as remote area power supply (RAPS), is an off-the-grid electricity system for locations that are not fitted with an electricity distribution system. Typical SAPS include one or more methods of electricity generation, energy storage, and regulation.

4. Home energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_Energy_Storage

   Home energy storage devices, when connected to a server via the internet, can theoretically be ordered to provide very short-term services to the energy grid:- Reduced peak hour demand stress - provision of short-term demand response during periods of peak demand reducing the need to inefficiently stand up short generation assets like diesel ...

5. Microgrid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgrid

   The Berkeley Lab defines: "A microgrid consists of energy generation and energy storage that can power a building, campus, or community when not connected to the electric grid, e.g. in the event of a disaster." A microgrid that can be disconnected from the utility grid (at the 'point of common coupling' or PCC) is called an 'islandable microgrid'.

6. Battery energy storage system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_energy_storage_system

   A battery energy storage system (BESS), battery storage power station, battery energy grid storage (BEGS) or battery grid storage is a type of energy storage technology that uses a group of batteries in the grid to store electrical energy.

7. Electrical grid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

   Normally, the electric power used within the plant is provided from the station's own generators. If all of the plant's main generators are shut down, station service power is provided by drawing power from the grid through the plant's transmission line. However, during a wide-area outage, off-site power from the grid is not available.

8. Off-the-grid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-the-grid

   Grid-connected buildings receive electricity from power plants, which mainly use natural resources such as coal and natural gas as energy to convert into electrical power. 2017's breakdown of world energy sources [6] shows that the globe, mainly dependent on grid power, uses a majority of non-renewables, while popular renewables such as solar PV and wind power are a small portion.

9. List of energy storage power plants - Wikipedia
