Storage can provide similar start-up power to larger power plants, if the storage system is suitably sited and there is a clear transmission path to the power plant from the storage system''s location. Storage system size range: 5–50 MW Target discharge duration range: 15 minutes to 1 hour Minimum cycles/year: 10–20.
who controls the storage facility: if you are the owner of the energy storage facility you will often look to contract with the local utility to provide network services or even just power. If there is a storage device connected to a generator, such as a solar PV plant, your offtaker is likely to want to take your output from a single connection point.
