Solar power in Japan has been expanding since the late 1990s. Japan is a large installer of domestic , with most of them grid connected. The country was a major manufacturer and exporter of photovoltaics (PV), with a global market share of around 50% in the early 2000s. However, by 2019, this had dropped to below 1% due to the rise of state-backed production in China.

Does the user-side energy storage system participate in a high reliability power supply transaction?
According to the above analysis, in order to fill the research gap of the user-side energy storage system participating in the high reliability power supply transaction, this paper first proposes a high reliability power supply transaction model between the user-side energy storage system and the power grid company.
How to optimize the energy storage system on the user-side?
In the optimization configuration of the energy storage system on the user-side in Fig. 6, it is necessary to consider the constraints of high reliability power supply tasks on the capacity of the energy storage system on the user-side, as well as the impact of its actual output on the objective function.
Why is a user-side energy storage system important?
The user-side energy storage system can not only participate in the capacity market as a quick response resource for users to obtain benefits [3, 4], but also ensure users' power consumption according to the actual high reliability power supply scenario by taking advantage of its high flexibility, fast response speed and other characteristics .
What is the user-side energy storage system optimization configuration model?
The user-side energy storage system optimization configuration model proposed in this paper is a nonlinear, mixed-integer problem. The integer aspects mainly involve the decision variables in the outer optimization model: the rated capacity and rated charging/discharging power of the user-side energy storage system.
