Utility-scale battery storage systems'' capacity ranges from a few megawatt-hours (MWh) to hundreds of MWh. Different battery storage technologies like lithium-ion (Li-ion), sodium sulfur, and lead acid batteries can be used for grid applications. Recent years have seen most of the market growth dominated by in Li-ion batteries [ 2, 3 ].

As of 2019, the maximum power of battery storage power plants was an order of magnitude less than pumped storage power plants, the most common form of grid energy storage. In terms of storage capacity, the largest battery power plants are about two orders of magnitude less than pumped hydro-plants ( Figure 13.2 and Table 13.1 ).

Battery Energy Storage will increase the amount of self-produced electricity as well as increasing self-consumption. A small PV + battery system can increase the percentage of self-consumed electricity from about 30% without storage to around 60-70%, optimising efficiency and reducing the amount of additional power needed from the grid.
