energy storage’s role regarding different grid applications, followed by the virtual storage plant as a scalable framework incorporating different characteristics of energy storage devices with its application scenarios. The scenarios include voltage regulation,
reserve provision, frequency regulation, etc. I will discuss with audience about certain aspects of outlook of energy storage in grid integration.</span></p>
