Eastern Interconnection (EI) and Texas Interconnection (ERCOT) power grid models, this paper investigates the capabilities of using energy storage to improve frequency response under high PV penetration. . As renewable energy adoption accelerates globally, primary frequency regulation standards for energy storage power stations have become a cornerstone of grid reliability. Energy storage systems (ESS) play a critical role in balancing supply-demand mismatches caused by intermittent solar and wind. . Abstract— Frequency stability of power systems becomes more vulnerable with the increase of solar photovoltaic (PV). Energy storage provides an option to mitigate the impact of high PV penetration. However, they cannot sustain their output indefinitely. System operators have therefore. .
