Battery Storage will have a Profound Impact on Smart Buildings
Often the best ideas are the most simple and elegant. If electric vehicles and consumer devices can have battery storage why can’t buildings? And if buildings can pull electricity from the grid at off peak times and store it in batteries, wouldn’t that save money? Since 2009, Stem based in California, have been working on these questions and disrupting the energy storage industry. ...

Power conditioning of an uncontrolled micro-hydroturbine-driven induction generator for distributed generation using a battery energy storage system
Distributed Generation (DG) and its interconnection to the AC power grid is a relatively new concept. DG employs small generators, which are distributed throughout the power system. The electricity is usually generated by renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro and tidal, which are intermittent in nature. These generators connected to the AC grid may lead to severe power quality problems. ...

US plant shutdowns, grid focus drive storage growth: Greensmith CEO
Power plant closures and hiking transmission costs are driving up US utilities’ investment in renewable energy storage, John Jung, CEO of Greensmith, an energy storage services firm, told Wind Energy Update. Some 60 GW of US coal-fired capacity is set to close between 2012 and 2020, according to the EIA. Nuclear plant lifespans will end and the US plans $180bn in planned transmission ...

Comparative performance of BESS and SMES in distribution network to improve power quality
The FACTS devices, like STATCOM, are becoming a part of the modern power system to improve the power system operation and power quality problems. Integrating the battery energy storage system (BESS)/superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) across the dc bus of the STATCOM can provide effective modulation of the real and reactive power. The dynamics of each of these differ because of their ...

Covid-19, Blackouts and Wildfires Demand New Energy Policy Initiatives
Covid-19, blackouts and increasing wildfires put CA residents at extreme risk. Dramatic steps to modernize our power grid with distributed customer-sited generation and storage are needed to mitigate these growing hazards Covid-19, rolling blackouts and the potential for a far more extreme wildfire season are putting Californians in danger. We need to take dramatic steps to ...

The 1TW EU Solar Pathway for 2030
Recently, the development of renewable energy sources has become an urgent need due to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, which has led to energy shortages in Europe. European Commission Vice President Frans Timmermans has proposed an energy strategy that aims to separate Europe from Russian gas as soon as possible, while protecting citizens from painful and increasing energy price shocks. ...

How Artificial Intelligence helps companies become more sustainable
Some time ago, I wrote a blog about how sustainability and digitization go hand-in-hand. I mentioned the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help us make smarter decisions that rely on hard facts and enormous amounts of data - providing companies operational benefits and supporting us on our path to sustainability. But there’s a catch: To be future-ready, companies must start ...

Exergy analysis of a rock bed thermal storage system
In this paper, a thermodynamic procedure is presented to analyse energy and exergy balances of a rock bed thermal storage system. The thermal behaviour is described by means of a control volume that includes three subsystems: the solar collectors, the fluid distribution system and the storage chamber. Solar-to-thermal energy conversion was obtained by means of a solar collector at a fixed airflow ...
