The Value of Battery Storage in Military Microgrids - An Assessment for ESTCP

This report summarizes the results of recent Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) studies (Projects EW19-5312, EW19-5046, EW19-5163 and EW19-5277) to identify the conditions under which battery energy storage systems (BESSs) can cost-effectively and materially enhance energy security within a military microgrid.

The projects covered in this report are listed to the right.
