Electrical energy storage for grid support gains increased significance, last not least with the increased importance of renewable energies. WOODWARD IDS has developed two systems in order to be able to serve the market. The two systems are:

1. Short time energy storage with Super Capacitors
   
   Energy storage for compensating short peak power demands or power fluctuations in the time frame from seconds to minutes.
   
   
2. Long time energy storage with batteries
   
   Energy storage, which allows power to be delivered over hours. Important for the support of weak grids with peak demands and to be able to make better use of renewable energy production (wind and solar) by bridging the gap between production and demand.
