This work analyses the minimum energy capacity requirements to be demanded to battery energy storage systems used in megawatt-range merchant solar PV plants to grant capacity firming. The operation of such a plant is simulated (with a 2-minute time step, at three different locations of the Iberian Peninsula, and for different battery sizes) after
With more battery capacity coming online while frequency response requirements remain stable, this shift to a reliance on merchant revenues is likely to become the new norm. Average battery energy storage revenue in December fell 16% to an all-time low of £2.5k/MW. This is a result of falling frequency response revenues.
First, trading activities reduce battery usage as we use some of its capacity to back-up day-ahead commitments. For instance, regarding ERCOT South Wind, real-time time spread opportunities involve 1.7 cycles per day for a 4-hour battery, while trading activities bring it down to 0.9 cycles per day.
