  1. Energy Storage Energy is stored to use it at a different time than when it was generated. The process of converting the energy to storable form means that some energy is lost. Additional energy is lost when the energy is released or recovered. Ideally, storage is avoided to have a more efficient process. Renewable energy, however, is often intermittent (like wind and sun), and storage allows use at a convenient time.

  2. Types of Energy Storage • Electricity can be stored by converting it into another form such as potential, kinetic or chemical energy. • Electrical energy storage technologies include the following types of storage media: • - Battery electric storage system (BESS) • - Flow batteries • - Fuel cells • - Flywheel energy storage (FES) • - Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) • - Super capacitor energy storage (SCES) • Compressed air energy storage (CAES) • Pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  3. Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) Electricity is produced from this 27-billion gallon reservoir using six turbines that drive electric generators. The same turbines double as giant water pumps to fill the reservoir with water from Lake Michigan. Real-life example: 1872 MW generating capacity www.consumersenergy.com/content.aspx?id=1830

  4. Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) Reversible pump-turbine can spin an alternator to generate electricity. It also can act as a pump to pump water uphill using electricity. This reversibility allows excess electrical energy to be used to pump water to a higher storage reservoir to be used as an energy source later. PHES is the most widespread high-energy storage technique. PHES provides rapid response (<1 minute) to support intermittent renewable generation.

  5. Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) The energy used to pump a water volume (V) to a height (h) with a specific pumping efficiency (ηp) is given by:  · g · h · V Epumping = ηp The energy supplied to the electrical network by a generator of efficiency (ηg) can be obtained by:  · g · h · V · ηg Egenerator = Overall efficiency of the energy storage system = Egenerator / Epumping http://www.sc.ehu.es/sbweb/energias-renovables/temas/almacenamiento/almacenamiento.html

Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) Ireland plan: A €3.45 billion project will comprise a 2GW peak power plant, including 18 onshore wind farms, a hydro station and a grid transmission connection. http://www.forumforthefuture.org/greenfutures/articles/irelands-3-billion-euro-bid-energy-independence

  9. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) Off-peak electricity is used compressed air, which is stored. During peak hours, compressed air is used to generate electricity. This system operates in the same way as a conventional gas turbine, but compression and expansion operations are independent and they occur at different times.

  11. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) The above shown CAES system that operates with the excess generation of a wind farm. http://www.sc.ehu.es/sbweb/energias-renovables/temas/almacenamiento/almacenamiento.html

  12. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) Air is compressed and stored in reservoirs, aquifers or underground cavities. The stored energy is released during periods of peak demand, expanding the air through a turbine. When air is compressed for storage, its temperature will increase according to where T is the temperature, P is the pressure, k is the polytropic index of the expansion, and subscripts 1 and 2 indicate the initial and final state of compression, respectively. http://www.sc.ehu.es/sbweb/energias-renovables/temas/almacenamiento/almacenamiento.html

  13. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) The heat generated can be retained in the compressed air or in another heat storage medium. This way, heat can be returned to the air before its expansion in the turbine. This method is called adiabatic storage system and achieves a high efficiency. However, if the heat generated in compression is lost, additional heat must be supplied to the air by burning a fuel. In general, for a given pressure ratio, the work of the turbine is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of admission. http://www.sc.ehu.es/sbweb/energias-renovables/temas/almacenamiento/almacenamiento.html

  14. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) Conventional flywheel

  15. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) Flywheels store electric power as kinetic energy of the rotor mass spinning at very high speeds, according to whereis the inertia momentum of the flywheel and is the angular speed. http://www.sc.ehu.es/sbweb/energias-renovables/temas/almacenamiento/almacenamiento.html

  16. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) The charging/discharging of the device is carried out through an integrated electrical machine operating - either as a motor to accelerate the rotor up to the required high speeds by absorbing power from the electric grid (charge mode) - or as a generator to produce electrical power on demand using the energy stored in the flywheel mass by decelerating the rotor (discharge mode).

  17. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) The system has very low rotational losses due to the use of magnetic bearings which prevent the contact between the stationary and rotating parts, thus decreasing the friction. In addition, because the system operates in vacuum, the aerodynamic resistance of the rotor is outstandingly reduced. These features permit the system to reach efficiencies higher than 80%.

  18. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) Flywheels have the ability to charge and discharge rapidly, and are almost immune to temperature fluctuations. They take up relatively little space, have lower maintenance requirements than batteries, and have a long life span. Flywheel devices are relatively tolerant of abuse, i.e. the lifetime of a flywheel system will not be shortened by a deep discharge unlike a battery.

  19. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) The stored energy is directly proportional to the flywheel rotor momentum and the square of the angular momentum, a reason why increments in the rotation speed yield large benefits on the storage energy density.

  20. Battery Electric Storage System (BESS) • have high energy densities • technology is matured • relatively easy to use • Let us consider the following four types: • - Lead-acid • - Nickel cadmium (NiCd) • - Sodium sulphur (NaS) • - Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) • - Lithium ion (Li-ion)

  21. Lead-acid (PbA) Batteries • Cathode: Lead peroxide (PbO2) on a lead (Pb) lattice support • Anode: Sponge lead on a lead lattice support • Electrolyte: Sulphuric acid and water Energy Conversion and Management 58 (2012) 134–148

  22. Lead-acid (PbA) Batteries Anode (oxidation): Cathode (reduction):

  23. Lead-acid (PbA) Batteries

  24. Lead-acid (PbA) Batteries The lead-acid battery is the oldest and most mature technology that has been used for electrical energy storage. They are ideal for small-cycle renewable energy integration applications. They can be discharged repeatedly by as much as 80% of their capacity and hence are suited for grid connected systems where users sell power back to the grid through net metering. Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  25. Lead-acid (PbA) Batteries They provide a cost-competitive and proven solution to a range of storage requirements owing to - low investment costs - lowest self-discharge of all rechargeable battery systems - relatively ease of maintenance Drawbacks: - limited cycle life - poor performance at low and high ambient temperatures - failure due to deep and continuous cycling - environmentally unfriendly lead content and acid electrolyte which result in a large eco-footprint Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  26. Nickel cadmium (NiCd) Batteries • Cathode: Nickel oxide hydroxide (Nickel hydroxy oxide) on a nickel foam, graphite or iron substance • Anode: Metallic cadmium pressed onto a nickel wire mesh • Electrolyte: Potassium hydroxide (KOH) Energy Conversion and Management 58 (2012) 134–148

  27. Nickel cadmium (NiCd) Batteries Cathode and anode are rolled up and placed in a steel case. The cathode and anode are separated by a porous poly- meric separator strip (three thin layers that consist of nylon/poly-propylene/nylon), with the electrolyte free to diffuse through it. Energy Conversion and Management 58 (2012) 134–148

  28. Nickel cadmium (NiCd) Batteries • The chemical reactions during discharge are: • At the cadmium electrode: • At the nickel electrode: • The net reaction during discharge is • During recharge, the reactions go from right to left. • The alkaline electrolyte (commonly KOH) is not consumed in this reaction and therefore its specific gravity, unlike in lead–acid batteries, is not a guide to its state of charge.

  29. Nickel cadmium (NiCd) Batteries Nickel cadmium batteries are a robust and proven alternative to lead-acid batteries and rank alongside them in terms of their maturity. Longer cycle life, higher energy densities and low maintenance requirements highlight superiority of NiCd batteries in comparison with lead-acid batteries. NiCd batteries offer many advantages in PV applications and factors such as their cycling ability, durability, long life and reliability make them ideal for operating under adverse conditions. Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  30. Nickel cadmium (NiCd) Batteries Drawbacks: - contain toxic heavy metals - suffer from severe self-discharge Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  31. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries Cathode: molten sulfur Anode: molten sodium Electrolyte: solid beta-alumina. Beta-alumina solid electrolyte (BASE) is a fast ion conductor material used as a membrane in several types of molten salt electrochemical cell. Currently there is no known substitute available.

  32. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries During discharge, sodium ions produced at the negative electrode are transported through the porous separator to the liquid sulphur positive electrode, reducing some of the sulphur to polysulphide ions.

  33. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries If a load is connected to terminals, electric power is discharged through the load. During the discharge, sodium ions converted from sodium in a negative electrode pass through solid electrolyte then reach to sulfur in positive electrode. The electrons finally flow to outside circuits. The electric power is generated by such current flow. With the progress of the discharge, sodium polysulfide is formed in positive electrode; on the contrary, sodium in negative electrode will decrease by consumption.

  34. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries For the battery to operate effectively it is necessary to maintain its temperature at about 300 to 350oC and this requires the use of sophisticated methods of construction for the battery pack, together with auxiliary heating during charging and periods of non-use. It is essential that the battery is not allowed to cool below 200oC, as the sodium electrolyte freezes solid at this temperature. Reactivation then becomes slow and difficult and the freezing of the sodium can damage the battery because of the mechanical stresses introduced.

  35. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries The sodium-sulphur battery has a high-energy density of 110 Wh/kg, a high power density of 150 W/kg and is capable of 1000 cycles of deep discharge in use. Drawback: Sodium polysulfides are highly corrosive.

  36. Sodium sulphur (NaS) Batteries During the charge, the electric power supplied from outside form sodium in negative electrode and sulfur in positive electrode by following the reverse process of the discharge. Because of this, the energy is stored in the battery.

  37. Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) Batteries Cathode: Nickel hydroxyl oxide on a nickel foam substrate Anode: Mischmetal (Mm) hydrides on a nickel or a nickel plated steal mesh Electrolyte: Potasium hydroxide (stored as Mm-Hx) • charged in the right direction of the equation above and discharged in the left direction. • Mischmetals (Mm) is the name given for a group of metals from lanthanide series (or rare earths), ytterium, titanium, zirconium, nickel and vanadium. Energy Conversion and Management 58 (2012) 134–148

  38. Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) Batteries • Used in electric vehicles

  39. Lithium ion (Li-ion) Batteries • Anode: Graphite or lithium salt of titanium oxide (TiO) • Cathode: Metal oxide such as CoO2 • Electrolyte: Lithium salt is an organic solvent They have a large ratio of power to weight and are used in cell phones and laptops. They achieve energy storage efficiencies of close to 100% Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130

  40. Lithium ion (Li-ion) Batteries • Drawbacks: • - high investment costs • - Lithium metal is very reactive and explosive Energy and Buildings 42 (2010) 2124–2130
