On 9 June 2024, 69 percent of Swiss voters approved the Electricity Act, which stipulates that, by 2050, Switzerland is to meet some 60 percent of its electricity demand (45 TWh per year) from new renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics, wind energy or biomass. . By the end of 2023, Swit-zerland had 47 large wind turbines in operation with a total rated power of 100 MW. The new regulations, set to take effect in 2026, introduce updated tariffs, encourage battery storage, and allow local electricity trading. How this can be achieved and the costs of doing so are set out in a new report by a Swiss research consortium involving researchers from ETH Zurich, the universities of Geneva and Bern. . The global challenge is not only to produce more energy from renewable sources, but also to be able to store it. However, the flexibility provided by decentralised energy resources is currently not being used efficiently at distribution grid level. These fluctuations can be. .

Fluctuation suppression Fast output fluctuations (in the time range up to a minute) of the power of wind generators can cause network frequency and voltage variations, especially in isolated power systems, and thus impairing the power quality . In order to mitigate the effects of power fluctuations, an ESS can be used.
In this way, wind farms are known as wind power plants. In this scenario, ESS play an important role in wind power applications by controlling wind power plant output and providing ancillary services to the power system and thus, enabling an increased penetration of wind power in the system.
Due to the aforementioned problems, public and private entities have been compelled to support the widespread use of renewable power (wind power). ESS are utilized in stabilized power systems to smooth out the integration of wind power and maintain network inertia and frequency.
