Revisión de las Características de Sistemas de Almacenamiento de Energía para Aplicaciones en Micro Redes.

This paper presents an overview of the main technologies for energy storage and use in electrical microgrids. Use of renewable energy sources in electric energy distribution increases instrumentation, management and control requirements, due to the high degree of intermittency and variability that these sources present. Storage systems provide reliability, availability and quality that are required. However, storage system selection must be part of microgrid design, taking into account the goals and the desired characteristics. The analysis shows that the implementation of energy storage systems on a microgrid improves transient response and capacity, increases instantaneous power and allows renewable energy integration.
