Energy storage system

A system, a method, and a computer program product for providing heterogeneous unifying battery storage. A state-of-health value of a battery is determined. The state-of-health value of the battery is less than an original capacity value of the battery. The battery is connected to an electrical power source for re-conditioning. A target state-of-health value for the battery and a number of cycles required to achieve the target state-of-health value of the battery are determined. Each cycle in the number of cycles includes at least one of: a charging the battery and a discharging the battery. The battery is re-conditioned by cycling the battery using the determined number of cycles. Cycling includes drawing electrical power from the electrical power source.

Testing and Modeling of Subscale Ice-on-Coil Module as Low Temperature Reservoir for sCO2 based Pumped Thermal Energy Storage Systems

Echogen tested approximately 10 kWthsubscale IOC system in their lab in Akron, OH for studying the feasibility, endurance and performance impact of the technology on PTES system. This paper discusses the test loop setup, testing and results from this sub-scale IOC testing. Along with testing, the project team also developed sub-scale IOC transient model. The paper discusses this transient model development and its validation against the test data.

Reversible Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Systems for Energy Storage and Hydrogen Production

FuelCell Energy (FCE) studied the performance, design, and economics of a reversible solid-oxide fuel cell/electrolyzer integrated with a natural gas-based electricity generation plant and used as an energy storage system. Increased market penetration of renewable energy is challenging for operators of fossilbased plants which are not suited for quick turndown and ramp-up. Process simulations studies show that with utilization of waste heat from the power plant, a high roundtrip efficiency (RTE) around 70% is possible, providing excellent market potential for this energy storage technology, potentially providing improved economics and lifetime for such power plant. The market potential and economics as a function of production volume are analyzed in detail. FCE is continuing the development and commercialization of its solid oxide technology.
