Technical FAQs 4

Should a PV array be oversized for a given inverter capacity?

Rather than focusing on how much the PV array should be oversized for a given inverter capacity, the installed inverter’s nominal power has been optimised for a given PV array installation. This allows us to compute the optimal ILR.

How many GW of battery storage will be installed in 2023?

The deployment of BESTs has increased dramatically over the last decade, with global installed battery storage power capacity rising from about 1 GW in 2013 to over 85 GW in 2023. Over 40 GW of this storage was added in 2023 alone, double the amount installed in 2022 (ref. 14).

Are battery energy-storage technologies necessary for grid-scale energy storage?

The rise in renewable energy utilization is increasing demand for battery energy-storage technologies (BESTs). BESTs based on lithium-ion batteries are being developed and deployed. However, this technology alone does not meet all the requirements for grid-scale energy storage.

What is the optimal inverter rated power?

The analysis shows that energy clipping occurs at 5.22 MW, which is the optimal inverter-rated power. Only the generation above 5.22 MW is clipped, and the energy below this threshold is used to calculate the estimated annuities of the system revenues. It is important to note that this study has only analysed typical annual hourly generation data.
