The BESS Book by Drew Lebowitz

Recent advances in lithium-ion battery technology and rapidly falling prices have ushered in an era of unprecedented growth in utility-scale energy storage projects. Propelled by ample government incentives, markets around the world have seen a swift rise in the number and size of battery energy storage systems (BESS) connected to the power grid. This growth has spurred massive advancements and interest in the design, construction, finance, and operation of these plants. The BESS Book is intended for the reader who is interested in learning about the fundamentals of lithium-ion battery systems. All key concepts of BESS technology, engineering, finance, construction, and operation and maintenance (O&M) are covered, as is hands-on learning from the field. Later chapters discuss battery controls, finance, development, and safety. The final section presents an outlook on the future of energy storage technology, and how anyone can start or advance a career in the battery industry. The book features examples from actual projects, market trends, lists of leading firms, photographs, and original graphics throughout. The content has been written in a way to help present ideas clearly for newcomers to the field, while including comprehensive technical content for energy storage professionals. The authors have over 5 GWh of energy storage project experience, including work with some of the largest projects and leading names in energy storage development and finance. Their hands-on experience combines theory with practice to give a clear picture of the current state of the industry, where it is going, and how the reader can get involved.
