Solar plus storage (also called co-located or hybrid solar-storage) describes projects where solar PV arrays and battery energy storage systems (BESS) are developed together, usually sharing infrastructure, land, and a single grid connection point. Sometimes two is better than one. Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time. . For solar-plus-storage—the pairing of solar photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage technologies—NLR researchers study and quantify the economic and grid impacts of distributed and utility-scale systems. Key findings reveal that PV. . The California Energy Commission's (CEC) Energy Research and Development Division supports energy research and development programs to spur innovation in energy efficiency, renewable energy and advanced clean generation, energy-related environmental protection, energy transmission, and distribution. . Energy grids today are turning more and more to combined solar and storage setups where solar panels work alongside either lithium ion batteries or flow battery systems. When storage works hand in hand with smart building controls, the result. .
