Abstract
Distributed energy storage within the distribution network of an electric power network at least partially supplied by time varying and unpredictable generation sources provides smoothing of energy flow within the distribution network. The distributed energy storage may include a plurality of distributed energy storage units operating under the control of a single controller or regional controllers. The distributed energy storage units may operate as groups of units or as separate units.
