Energy Storage Systems (ESS); Systèmes de stockage de l'énergie (SSE)
Devices and technologies used to store energy for later release. These systems make it possible to regulate energy production according to demand, by storing excess production and releasing it during periods of high demand.
Grid flexibility
The ability of the power grid to adapt to variations in energy production and consumption. This flexibility is essential for integrating intermittent renewable energies, such as solar and wind power, while maintaining grid stability and reliability.
Énergies renouvelables (ENR); Renewable Energy (RE)
Energy sources from renewable natural resources such as sun, wind, water and biomass. These energies are essential to the energy transition, aimed at reducing dependence...
