The economics of energy storage strictly depends on the reserve service requested, and several uncertainty factors affect the profitability of energy storage. Therefore, not every storage method is technically and economically suitable for the storage of several MWh, and the optimal size of the energy storage is market and location dependent. Moreover, ESS are affected by several risks, e.g.:

Definition: Power capacity refers to the maximum rate at which an energy storage system can deliver or absorb energy at a given moment. •. Units: Measured in kilowatts (kW) or megawatts (MW). •. Significance: Determines the system’s ability to meet instantaneous power demands and respond quickly to fluctuations in energy usage.
Significance: Determines the system’s ability to meet instantaneous power demands and respond quickly to fluctuations in energy usage. • Definition: Energy capacity is the total amount of energy that an energy storage system can store or deliver over time. • Units: Measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh) or megawatt-hours (MWh).
This higher energy storage capacity system is well suited to multihour applications, for example, the 20.5 MWh with a 5.1 MW power capacity is used in order to deliver a 4 h peak shaving energy storage application.
Energy storage involves converting energy from forms that are difficult to store to more conveniently or economically storable forms. Some technologies provide short-term energy storage, while others can endure for much longer. Bulk energy storage is currently dominated by hydroelectric dams, both conventional as well as pumped.
