Wind Power Energy Storage refers to the methods and technologies used to store the electrical energy generated by wind turbines during periods of high production for use at times when wind generation decreases or demand increases. For example, demand response provides a means to shift demand to times of relatively high wind generation and low load, while storage technologies. . In the high-renewable penetrated power grid, mobile energy-storage systems (MESSs) enhance power grids' security and economic operation by using their flexible spatiotemporal energy scheduling ability. Unlike traditional onshore wind farms, which are fixed in one location, these mobile units can be deployed wherever needed. These systems enhance energy flexibility, 2.
