Frequency regulation asks of a store a response measured in

  • A.seconds
  • B.minutes
  • C.hours
  • D.days

Answer: A

Correct answer: seconds

Frequency regulation corrects the second-by-second imbalance between generation and demand, so the store must respond within a second or two and sustain the output for seconds to a few minutes. Speed matters far more than capacity, which is why flywheels, supercapacitors and lithium ion batteries are used for it and pumped hydro, with its minutes-long start, historically was not.
