Definition of utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS)
Utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) are the enabling
infrastructure that will support the continued growth of renewable energy
sources such as wind and solar, essential to the UK's stated target to reduce
carbon emissions. They store excess energy generated by renewable energy
sources and then release that stored energy back into the grid during peak
hours when there is increased demand.
