In 2019, Rosseti Centre and Rosseti Centre and Volga Region will install innovative energy storage systems in the Belgorod and Vladimir regions to increase the reliability and quality of power supply to consumers. These projects are included in the program of digital transformation of grid companies.
“Electricity storage systems are used in the global electric power industry mainly for renewable energy sources. Projects that we implement in the Belgorod and Vladimir regions are unique to our country and significantly expand the scope of this technology. A power storage device is an unattended and absolutely controlled element of a digital electrical grid that can solve very different problems. Now is the time when the economic efficiency of the use of storage devices in electrical grids becomes apparent. These innovative technologies will become an important building block of digital energy. Our task today is to work out technical requirements and solutions for the design, installation and operation of storage systems,” stressed General Director of Rosseti Centre - the managing organization of Rosseti Centre and Volga Region Igor Makovskiy.
In the Vladimir region, a pilot system will be installed to supply power to the obstetric centre in the village of Pavlovskoye of Suzdalsky district. The new equipment implementation will improve the reliability of electricity supply to this socially significant facility. If technological disturbances occur in the grid, the system will be able to maintain the power supply at maximum load for four hours. Its capacity will be 10 kW, power consumption - 30 kWh.
The second pilot system for the storage of electric energy with a capacity of 15 kW and an energy capacity of 45 kWh will be installed in Belgorod at a 0.4 kV power line from the “Zapadnaya” substation and is designed to provide the standard voltage level for consumers living in the private sector. This storage device will be charged at the time of minimum consumption (night and daytime hours), and at peak hours (evenings) it will supply electricity to the grid, thus compensating for voltage losses.
