There are various valuation methods for energy storage. Other valuation options may be utilized by the financial model to account for technical, economic, and financing uncertainty. To optimize income, an energy arbitrage algorithm can be used. 8. Conclusion

What is energy storage & how does it work?

Energy storage can store surplus electricity generation and provide power system flexibility. A Generation Integrated Energy Storage system (GIES) is a class of energy storage that stores energy at some point along with the transformation between the primary energy form and electricity.

Is a project investment in energy storage a viable investment?

The project investment in all the studied energy storage systems is demonstrated viable to both project sponsors and lenders since the IRRs of the project for all systems in their last year of operation are larger than the projected WACC and the IRR of equity in their maturity year are better than the return on equity. 5. Financial analysis

Are energy storage systems feasible?

From a financial and an economic perspective, the studied energy storage systems are feasible technologies to store large scales energy capacities because they generate sufficient returns for project investors, have a high ability to service debt payments from cash flows, and, most importantly, achieves sufficient financial performance. 1.
