Jordan Advances Grid-Scale Battery Storage to Bolster
"The Cabinet-approved energy storage project is both a technical and economic necessity, considering the expected return on investment and its role in maintaining grid
The lack of large energy storage systems prevents conventional power plants from running on maximum generation capacity, any extra generated power to the Jordanian electric loads will flow to Egypt via the tie line; installing large energy storage systems will enhance the electrical generation efficiency .
The Jordanian national grid needs an economic development by managing the energy generation in order to decrease the generated energy price . The intermittent nature of output energy from the Renewable Energy Generators (REGs) varies instantaneously with any small variation in weather conditions .
The Jordanian grid is connected via tie line with Egypt; due to Egypt's high contribution of the generated energy and connected loads, it controls the frequency over the grid, while the Jordanian national grid controls the power flow over the tie line.
Additionally, IESS implementation can aid in controlling the Jordanian national grid's frequencies under faults circumstances, maintaining the equilibrium between the electric loads and the generating capacities, and utilizing the existence of tie line in feasible applications, and maintaining the grid's frequency.
