Energy storage has the potential to play a crucial role in the future of the power sector. However, significant research and development efforts are needed to improve storage technologies, reduce costs, and increase efficiency.
Energy storage technologies have been recognized as an important component of future power systems due to their capacity for enhancing the electricity grid's flexibility, reliability, and efficiency. They are accepted as a key answer to numerous challenges facing power markets, including decarbonization, price volatility, and supply security.
Zobaa (2013) defined energy storage as integrating actors of existing segments. He presented energy storage as a solution for challenges in the power supply chain (see Fig. 5) . Energy storage helps in hedging volatility risk in the fuel market.
In general, they have not been widely used in electricity networks because their cost is considerably high and their profit margin is low. However, climate concerns, carbon reduction effects, increase in renewable energy use, and energy security put pressure on adopting the storage concepts and facilities as complementary to renewables.
The deployment of energy storage systems (ESS) can also create new business opportunities, support economic growth, and enhance the competitiveness of the power market. There are several ESS used at a grid or local level such as pumped hydroelectric storage (PHES), passive thermal storage, and battery units [, , ].
Integrating energy storage within power system models offers the potential to enhance operational cost-effectiveness, scheduling efficiency, environmental outcomes, and the integration of renewable energy sources.
