Energy trading strategy of community shared energy storage

One of the challenges of renewable energy is its uncertain nature. Community shared energy storage (CSES) is a solution to alleviate the uncertainty of renewable resources by aggregating excess energy during appropriate periods and discharging it when renewable generation is low. CSES involves multiple consumers or producers sharing an energy storage
