The metering system of the new generation smart substation is a digital energy metering system, which consists of an electronic voltage transformer, an electronic current transformer, a merging unit and a digital energy meter or a multi-function device integrated with a digital energy meter function and an electric energy collecting terminal.
With these new technologies, the aims of high degree of integration system, reasonable structure, advanced equipment, and economic energy saving are expected to be achieved. As a major part of the smart grid, the smart substation has entered a comprehensive construction stage.
The development strategy and planning should be made through the top design of new generation smart substations. The top-level design is a system project composed of a construction goal, key technology research, key equipment development, and near-long-term conceptual design scheme.
The new generation smart substation will focus on new equipment, new materials, new technologies, primary electricity, and secondary light, which is characterized by power electronic technology and can rapidly achieve flexible control of energy and contains AC and DC mixed supply function.
Lead–acid batteries have been used for energy storage in utility applications for many years but it has only been in recent years that the demand for battery energy storage has increased.
This technology strategy assessment on lead acid batteries, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.
It has been the most successful commercialized aqueous electrochemical energy storage system ever since. In addition, this type of battery has witnessed the emergence and development of modern electricity-powered society. Nevertheless, lead acid batteries have technologically evolved since their invention.
Lead-acid batteries employ [lead electrodes] and [sulfuric acid electrolyte] to store and discharge energy. A typical battery cell consists of two lead plates; one is covered in lead dioxide while the other plate is made of lead. The two plates are immersed in a sulfuric acid electrolyte solution that acts as a conductor.

The on-grid version of the solarfold container is connected directly to the public power grid and can supply up to 40 single-family homes with the energy produced (energy requirement of 3,500 kW/year/single-family house). The solarfold on-grid container can also be expanded with various storage solutions.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and hydrogen (H 2) are promising technologies for short- and long-duration energy storage, respectively. A hybrid LIB-H 2 energy storage system could thus offer a more cost-effective and reliable solution to balancing demand in renewable microgrids.
Battery energy-storage systems typically include batteries, battery-management systems, power-conversion systems and energy-management systems 21 (Fig. 2b).
Compared to Just LIB or Just H2, the hybrid system provided significant cost reductions (see Fig. 5). Relying on only LIB for energy storage ($74.8 million) was more expensive than relying on only H 2 ($59.2 million), and significantly more expensive than the hybrid case ($43.3 million).
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.
