Comparison of energy Storage Types
Because of the random and fluctuating quality of renewable energy, energy storage will play a critical role in maintaining energy balance and the quality of the power
supplied by the isolated microgrid. Today, the widely used
energy storage equipment is mainly a chemical energy
storage battery, including lead-acid, lithium iron phosphate,
flow, and lead carbon batteries (Table 2). For different project requirements and construction costs,  the type and

performance requirements of energy storage used in the
microgrid vary. Figure 2 compares various mature energy
storage technologies in terms of price, reliability, environmental protection, safety, transportation and maintenance,
charge/discharge capacity, cycles, and response time. In
summary, the lead carbon battery is recommended for the
engineering application of a large-scale isolated microgrid.
It shows prominent characteristics in reliability, response
time, economy, and maintenance.
