| Summary: | This chapter looks into application of ESS in residential market. Balancing the energy supply and demand becomes more challenging due to the instability of supply chain and energy infrastructures. But opportunities always come with challenges. Apart from traditional energy, solar energy can be the second residential energy. But solar energy by nature is intermittent and available under solar irradiance only, so we need a solution to harvest all the solar energy generated in daytime and use it for supplying household load at high demand or backup at power outage, this solution is ESS. Most residential ESS solutions are Lithium-ion battery (LiB) based due to its high energy density and small footprint. But degradation of LiB system is quite sensitive to application conditions like temperature, and the lifespan of most LiB systems is between 10 and 20 years. Looking at future trend, the residential renewable energy solution (RRES) will become more flexible, compatible and reliable. Digitalization, as development trend, will enable end-users remotely monitor and manage different operation modes of RRES. The RRES suppliers will also offer most economic operation plan for end-users given their geography locations and household energy consumption habit. |
