China installed grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) totalling 4,756MW of power and 14,194MWh of capacity in July, 75. 5% of the total deployed globally.
The sharp and continuous deployment of intermittent Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and especially of Photovoltaics (PVs) poses serious challenges on modern power systems. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are seen as a promising technology to tackle the arising technical bottlenecks, gathering significant attention in recent years.
Two interesting BESS systems highlighted in the 2024 Battery Report are Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G). A VPP involves the coordinated charge or discharge of stationary energy storage assets to act as a larger BESS asset on the grid.
Moreover, it is an ancillary service that BESS can easily provide to the power system. Power demand and supply in the electricity grid have to be equal at all times.
During peak energy demand or when the input from renewable sources drops (such as solar power at night), the BESS discharges the stored energy back into the power grid. A BESS, like what FusionSolar offers, comprises essential components, including a rechargeable battery, an inverter, and sophisticated control software.
A key factor driving this BESS market is the dramatic decline in battery costs. In 2024, the cost per kWh of BESS systems dropped by 40% year-on-year from 2023, now averaging $165/kWh – less than half the price seen just five years ago.
Given the global surge of residential PV systems in recent years and in order to alleviate any barriers for their further integration, BESS are seen as an ideal solution, which has not been accelerated yet, despite its proven benefits.

Abstract: In order to make the energy storage system achieve the expected peak-shaving and valley-filling effect, an energy-storage peak-shaving scheduling strategy considering the improvement goal of peak-valley difference is proposed.
The model aims to minimize the load peak-to-valley difference after peak-shaving and valley-filling. We consider six existing mainstream energy storage technologies: pumped hydro storage (PHS), compressed air energy storage (CAES), super-capacitors (SC), lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, and vanadium redox flow batteries (VRB).
A simulation based on a real power network verified that the proposed strategy could effectively reduce the load difference between the valley and peak. These studies aimed to minimize load fluctuations to achieve the maximum energy storage utility.
Therefore, minimizing the load peak-to-valley difference after energy storage, peak-shaving, and valley-filling can utilize the role of energy storage in load smoothing and obtain an optimal configuration under a high-quality power supply that is in line with real-world scenarios.
Finally, taking the actual load data of a certain area as an example, the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy and the constant power control strategy are compared through simulation, and it is verified that this strategy has a better effect of peak shaving and valley filling.
