Think about the example above of the difference between a light bulb and an AC unit. If you have a 5 kW, 10 kWh battery, you can only run your AC unit for two hours (4.8 kW 2 hours = 9.6 kWh). However, that same battery would be able to keep 20 lightbulbs on for two full days (0.012 kW 20 lightbulbs * 42 hours = 10 kWh).
Microgrids with high shares of variable renewable energy resources, such as wind, experience intermittent and variable electricity generation that causes supply–demand mismatches over multiple timescales.
