Summary

Integration of intermittent solar resources into the grid creates added complication to load management, leading some utilities to reject it altogether, while other operators may penalize the producers via rate increases or force solar developers to include storage devices on-site to smooth out power delivery at the point of production. This book aims to provide information from underlying scientific fundamentals to practical applications, and emphasizes the latest technological developments driving this discipline forward. It sheds light on the economic status of solar storage facilities, including case studies of the particular challenges that solar energy systems present to remote locations. Topics include: chemical storage mechanisms, mechanical storage tactics, pumped hydro, thermal storage, and storage strategies for systems of all sizes-from centralized utilities to distributed generation. --
