Abstract (EN): This paper analyzes the impact of storage installations on grid electricity demand. Storage systems allow the decoupling of consumption from electricity generation and therefore have the potential to change the daily demand profile seen by the network in a significant way. This has far reaching consequences for many stakeholders, as changes in the net demand would for example impact electricity prices or change the requirements for peak generation. The developed approach considers the installation of storage devices to increase self consumption of locally generated electricity in a residential and small commercial end users context as well as its application for electricity arbitrage. Assumptions about their implementation on a system level are described and their impact on overall electricity demand is determined considering the German case.
