Open post Shrirang Kahale @albonycal@fosstodon.org · 30mo ago Replying to @sbi@toot.berlin Enter batteries. Here, we use the term for electro-chemical assets which can both consume (charging) and produce (discharging) power. But they charge/discharge DC, so, like with PV power, you need to connect a string of batteries to your (AC) grid through an inverter which converts between AC/DC. The combination of a string of batteries and an inverter is often called an "AC battery" and usually controlled as a singular asset. Like combustion generators, battery inverters are grid-forming. @sbi There's also this which can be used https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumped-storage_hydroelectricity Which is a "battery" that stores the potential energy which can be converted back to electricity when needed en.wikipedia.org
