  • Abstract
    This paper will describe work done at EPRI over the past several years in relation to energy storage and bulk power system integration of renewables. In particular, applications of energy storage and related functional requirements are described and technologies are summarized. Insights and lessons learned from various case studies are also examined, showing the impact of energy storage on bulk system integration of variable generation.
