Systems Integration Basics. Solar-Plus-Storage 101. Solar panels have one job: They collect sunlight and transform it into electricity. But they can make that energy only when the sun is shining. That''s why the ability to store solar energy for later use is important: It helps to keep the balance between electricity generation and demand.
Storage can provide similar start-up power to larger power plants, if the storage system is suitably sited and there is a clear transmission path to the power plant from the storage system''s location. Storage system size range: 5–50 MW Target discharge duration range: 15 minutes to 1 hour Minimum cycles/year: 10–20.
