One benefit of certain types of storage resources is that they may be portable. For example, a battery can be moved to another location to be used by another offtaker more readily thanSee more on projectfinance.lawPublished: Oct 1, 2017Novergy Solar

Is the grid too saturated for solar energy?
The grid is too saturated during the day to be able to accept any of the solar energy. We are beginning to see a rise in co-located storage plus other resource units where the generating facility and storage are treated like two separate projects.
Does a power contract cover a solar system?
Therefore, the power contract covers both. There is a natural synergy. The storage system, which is typically comprised of batteries, can charge from the solar system and then provide back-up electricity at times of no or low sunlight.
What is solar-plus for Electric Co-ops?
Solar-Plus for Electric Co-ops (SPECs) was launched to help optimize the planning, procurement, and operations of battery storage and solar-plus-storage for electric cooperatives. SPECs was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for Round 2 of the Solar Energy Innovation Network (SEIN).
Does a power contract cover energy storage?
There are several energy storage models, each requiring different approaches to product definitions and performance parameters. The most prevalent model appears to be storage combined with a solar project, where the two are treated as a single system. Therefore, the power contract covers both. There is a natural synergy.
