Battery Energy Storage System Evaluation Method
could alleviate this challenge by storing PV energy in excess of instantaneous load. b. Many utilities are discontinuing "net metering" policies and assigning much lower value to PV energy exported to the grid. Batteries allow the PV energy to be stored and discharged at a later time to displace a higher retail rate for electricity. 3.
