The AES Lawai Solar Project in Kauai, Hawaii has a 100 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system paired with a solar photovoltaic system. 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 energy is needed most.
For the photovoltaic array, the larger the area, the larger the power generation and the longer the operation time, but the investment cost will be too high to pay back. On the other hand, grid power is divided into off-peak power and peak power, and DCs can rely on off-peak power to reduce costs during nighttime operation.
The most common type of energy storage in the power grid is pumped hydropower. But the storage technologies most frequently coupled with solar power plants are electrochemical storage (batteries) with PV plants and thermal storage (fluids) with CSP plants.
