EV batteries can also be used as mobile energy storage units, with the potential for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications where EVs discharge power back into the grid during peak demand periods. Despite its many advantages, BESS faces several challenges:
Energy battery storage systems are at the forefront of the renewable energy revolution, providing critical solutions for managing power demand, enhancing grid stability, and promoting the efficient use of renewable resources.
Mobile energy storage can improve system flexibility, stability, and regional connectivity, and has the potential to serve as a supplement or even substitute for fixed energy storage in the future. However, there are few studies that comprehensively evaluate the operational performance and economy of fixed and mobile energy storage systems.

Mobile energy storage systems, classified as truck-mounted or towable battery storage systems, have recently been considered to enhance distribution grid resilience by providing localized support to critical loads during an outage.
The energy storage system effectively solves the problem of supply and demand fluctuations in the power system, improving the stability and reliability of the power grid.
With the advancement of battery technology, such as increased energy density, cost reduction, and extended cycle life, the economy of mobile energy storage systems will be further improved. Future research should focus on the impact of new technologies on system performance and update model parameters in a timely manner.
