Energy Storage

Energy storage devices can manage the amount of power required to supply customers when need is greatest. They can also help make renewable energy—whose power output cannot be controlled by grid operators—smooth and dispatchable. Energy storage devices can also balance microgrids to achieve an appropriate match of generation and load.

Energy storage and grid integration Tokelau

6 FAQs about [Energy storage and grid integration Tokelau]

Why is electricity so expensive in Tokelau?

Before the PowerSmart systems were installed on the nation’s three atolls, Tokelau was highly dependent on imported fossil fuels to meet its energy needs and therefore vulnerable to international price fluctuations and increasing fuel costs, making electricity extremely expensive for both households and businesses.

What are energy storage systems?

Energy storage systems are technologies capable of charging energy from an external source and discharging this energy at a later time. The emergence of storage technologies, such as grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS), has created new opportunities for shifting energy supply and demand.

How are energy storage systems categorized?

Energy storage systems can be broadly categorized based on 1) where they are interconnected (e.g., in front-of-the-meter, behind-the-meter, or off-grid) and 2) the type of energy they store (e.g., thermal, mechanical, electrochemical, etc.).

How much does a diesel generator cost in Tokelau?

Indeed, until recently, diesel generators were burning around 200 litres of fuel daily on each atoll, meaning more than 2,000 barrels of diesel were used to generate electricity in Tokelau each year, costing more than $1m NZD.

What is a mechanical energy storage system?

Mechanical energy storage systems – these systems transform potential and/or kinetic energy into electricity. Examples include pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), compressed air energy storage (CAES) and flywheels.

What is on-site energy storage?

On-site energy storage such as a lithium-ion battery storage system can provide this service, avoiding fuel costs and emissions from conventional black-start generators. As system-wide outages are rare, on-site energy storage can provide additional services when not performing black starts.
