Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. In the high-renewable penetrated power grid, mobile energy-storage systems (MESSs) enhance power grids’ security and economic operation by using their flexible spatiotemporal energy scheduling ability.
Additionally, setting the solar power station as a supply point for batteries, and utilizing a combined wind and solar energy supply could further enhance the complementary use of these resources, benefiting mobile energy storage.
Based on this, mobile energy storage is one of the most prominent solutions recently considered by the scientific and engineering communities to address the challenges of distribution systems .
Several MESS demonstration projects around the world have validated its ability to support multiple aspects of the power grid. This subsection describes the scheduling of mobile energy storage in terms of theoretical approaches and demonstration applications, respectively.
During emergencies via a shift in the produced energy, mobile energy storage systems (MESSs) can store excess energy on an island, and then use it in another location without sufficient energy supply and at another time , which provides high flexibility for distribution system operators to make disaster recovery decisions .
Large-scale mobile energy storage technology is considered as a potential option to solve the above problems due to the advantages of high energy density, fast response, convenient installation, and the possibility to build anywhere in the distribution networks .

In this case analysis, the installed capacity and energy capacity of energy storage technologies are illustrated in Table 2. PHS or CAES have the priority in expansion planning as they have the cost advantage, and BES can only be configured in scientific research, demonstration application, frequency and voltage regulation, etc.
The installed capacity is expected to exceed 100 GW. Looking further into the future, breakthroughs in high-safety, long-life, low-cost battery technology will lead to the widespread adoption of energy storage, especially electrochemical energy storage, across the entire energy landscape, including the generation, grid, and load sides.
