This research report explores how Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are evolving from a supporting technology into a core flexibility resource that ensures grid stability and efficiency.
The Report
It examines:
Comparative ESS market models in the U.S., U.K., Australia, and Japan,
Korea’s policy shifts and the transition toward settlement-based market structures, and
Future directions for real-time flexibility markets and ESS operation strategies.
Drawing on global case studies and policy analysis, the report provides a data-driven view of how ESS competitiveness is increasingly defined by settlement efficiency, operational precision, and data reliability, not by capacity alone.
Through this study, Enel X Korea aims to support companies navigating Korea’s evolving power market by offering practical insights for building data-driven, flexible, and profitable ESS strategies.
