Abstract (EN): A successful deployment of electrical energy storage (EES) in current electricity grid systems is a plausible episode in several power systems given the outstanding technical, economic and environmental benefits that EES provides. Also, more distributed resources are becoming key actors in remotely located renewable energy based and poorly interconnected island grid systems. Healing these fragile grid systems in islands requires devising and promoting a robust grid system operation. Such move should go hand in hand with an increasing distributed energy resource use to guarantee sustainable renewable energy integration into these systems. In the present document, EES technologies and applications have been compiled, where special emphasis has been given on islands, studying their particular requirements and technology appropriateness on operating project experiences around the world, from which some lessons can be learned. Conclusions about EES technologies' general suitability on island systems are duly drawn throughout the content of this paper.
