In the past few decades, electricity production depended on fossil fuels due to their reliability and efficiency [1].Fossil fuels have many effects on the environment and directly affect the economy as their prices increase continuously due to their consumption which is assumed to double in 2050 and three times by 2100 [6] g. 1 shows the current global
Energy Storage is a DER that covers a wide range of energy resources such as kinetic/mechanical energy (pumped hydro, flywheels, compressed air, etc.), electrochemical energy (batteries, supercapacitors, etc.), and thermal energy (heating or cooling), among other technologies still in development [10]. In general, ESS can function as a buffer between
