  • Abstract
    This letter describes an analytical approach to determining the size, in terms of both power and energy capacity, of a backup storage unit in such a way as to meet a specified reliability target. The backup could be in the form of electrical energy storage or fuel storage. The proposed approach might benefit facilities that require high levels of reliability in their electric supply.
