Due to the large number of base stations, massive distributed ESSs have largely stayed in idle and very difficult to achieve high asset utilization. In recent years, the fast-paced development of digital energy storage(DES) technology has revolutionized the traditional operation and maintenance of ESSs by transforming them into digital assets, further enabling battery energy storage services, raising up a new way to achieve a much higher utilization of such kind of largely idle ESS resources. In this paper, the disruptive DES technology will be introduced and its application under the context of mobile BSs will be studied, and then a cloud-based energy storage(CES) platform is proposed based on a large scale distributed DESs to provide a new cyber-enabled energy storage service to the local utility company. A real-world case study shows the effectiveness and efficiency of the CES platform.展开更多
