Can the surplus power of energy storage power stations be connected to the grid

What happens if a grid is in surplus?

At times of high electricity demand, extra capacity must be immediately available or the grid risks shutting down. One way of ensuring continuous and sufficient access to electricity is to store energy when it is in surplus and feed it into the grid when there is an extra need for electricity.

Can storing surplus power be extended in the future?

(3) The studied approach for storing surplus power can be extended in the future to store green power or fix carbon dioxide. In practice, green power is often abandoned by the power grid since its intermittent fluctuation. Importantly, this work provides a new way of utilizing intermittent and low-quality green power to produce clean hydrogen.

Can EV battery storage help balance power supply and demand?

Leveraging a two-way flow of electricity from EV battery storage to balance power supply and demand could also help global efforts to integrate more renewables in the power mix. EVs can charge when renewable energy generation from wind or the sun is high or when there is lower demand for electricity ( e.g. when people are sleeping).
