Electrical Energy Storage: An Issue for Consumers and Power Players




Lately, we are burdened by a few things electricity: The
rising costs of our household power rates, electrical
hazards and how to avoid it, alternative to electrical
energy for our use, energy shortage and outages. At least
these are the issues we ordinary citizens face. However, if
you ask the electrical utility companies, these issues are
secondary concerns compared to the one they are
tackling right now: The issue of electrical energy storage.

For the utility companies, the rising costs of electricity
will depend on the electricity spot market. With regards
to electrical hazards, it is the duty of the users to exercise
care and safety. And it is also their duty to explore
alternative energy options. With regards to their services,
best they can do is to upgrade the facilities to prevent
power failure. But on the issue of energy storage, they
have not found an answer yet and they are still asking for
help. Why does this issue bother them too much?

Imagine a power outage started in Adelaide, next messed
up the traffic in Melbourne, cut the lights in Brisbane,
and then brought total darkness to Sydney. Picturing the
scene, we can feel thousands of thousands of people are
left without energy and the country could lose billions of
dollars. The scene will not be caused by any disaster or
sinister plan to sabotage the economy. It just happens
that Australia’s electricity grid was experiencing glitches
aggravated by a few pesky trees and computer
malfunction. Such a scenario will concern the power
players and it has something to do with energy storage.

This scenario has not happened yet in the country, but
did take place in North America and the Aussie power
players will not afford to let it take place. Lest they can do
is to store energy on the electric grids. Electricity could
be stored at power station units, along the transmission
lines, at substations and in designated locations near
users properties. This way, the grids could use the stored
electricity to supply to the users.

It sounds like a big project to utility companies and
power providers but the idea of energy storage is a good
idea to explore because many successful systems manage
to serve their customers by keeping a reserve. The
country’s grids currently do not have some energy
storages systems, which is a concern itself.

                                                   Commercial Electrician Sydney
Is this a concern for the utility companies and power
providers? No, because this is a public concern as we are
consumers of electricity too. Why should this be a concern for
us?

- Our country’s electricity supply industry is currently unable
  to store its product (as you should know by now).
- Electricity cannot be stored readily. As soon as it is
  produced, it has to be consumed.
- Our country has yet to upgrade its grid energy storage.




                                             Electrician Sydney | Electrician North Sydney

                                                       Commercial Electrician Sydney
If Australia has adequate energy storage capacity in its grids,
our electricity suppliers can:

- Supply more renewable energy to the consumers smoothly
   and most of the time
- Enhance the reliability and flexibility of power supply
- Reduce the amount of fossil fuels consumed to operated
   the grids
- Improve delivery of electricity
- Stabilise the electricity markets and providers
As of this moment, the utility companies and energy
producers are still exploring many options to store electricity
to serve the public better. This is an issue for all of us.
