PHEVs cannot at this time nor in the next 10 years be used for operating reserves.
Wow, another anonymous user beat me to it. I'm a little worried that the PHEVs statement which went "The batteries in PHEVs are a potential flexible energy storage media for the electric power grid, providing alternative and cheaper spinning reserves." is too much speculation. Also I'm not sure how one is meant to guess what the PHEV abbreviation is in a power systems article. 123.2.174.193 (talk) 01:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Should this article include
[edit]- mention of different frequency control technologies such as flywheel and battery storage ? - Rod57 (talk) 16:49, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
Potentially confusing that flywheels (some used for frequency control) are not considered a spinning reserve. - Rod57 (talk) 17:15, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
Is the terminology the same in USA, Canada, UK, Australia ?
Definitions
[edit]Referring to the opening passage of the article - should the definition of operating reserve be 'the operating reserve is always at least the capacity of the largest supplier MINUS a fraction of the peak load.', rather than 'PLUS'? KorgBoy (talk) 05:41, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
