6 · A battery energy storage system (BESS), due to its very fast dynamic response, plays an essential role in improving the transient frequency stability of a grid. The performance of the BESS varies with the system''s installation site. Hence, the optimal location of the BESS is of utmost importance for improving transient frequency stability.
The traditional grid is self-stabilizing to a high degree. As clean energy sources that are variable continue to be added to the grid, it will be necessary to provide additional stabilization such as adding large-scale energy storage.
