A solar plus storage system has met a large portion of the electricity demand in the humanitarian hub in Malakal South Sudan. The solar system features a 700 kWp solar PV system and a 1,368 […]
Large-scale battery storage LCOE, Post No. 892, has fallen to $150/MWh which is halved compared to two years ago. The combination of lithium-ion battery storage with solar or wind power becomes, therefore, more competitive with […]
The cumulative battery storage capacity of Ireland has been rapidly increasing and reached 2100 MW capacity in the earlier months of 2020. The trend has the potential to reach 2500 MW at the end of […]
Referring to our previous post, No. 827, lithium-ion battery price dropped down by 85%during the past decade. This drives more attention towards extending and developing storage solutions. In one of the recent analyses, the National […]
As of March 2019, utility-scale battery storage capacity in the U.S. reached 899 MW. The U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA) stated that it is expected that another 1,623 MW capacity to come online by 2023. […]
Fukushima Hydrogen Energy Research Field (FH2R) is a 10 MW hydrogen generation facility that can produce, store, and supply up to 1,200 cubic newton meters (Nm³) of hydrogen per hour, which is powered by a […]
Battery storage is a suitable solution for utility-scale renewable projects. Due to the intermittent power generation of renewable energy, storage solutions such as utility-scale battery storage is appropriate to store excess generated electricity from solar […]
Interested in the history of alternative large scale batteries? Did you know that World’s first Compressed Air Energy Storage (Huntorf’s CAES) plant was built in 1978? It was designed to store extra energy in Elsfleth, […]
Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) system utilizes excess electricity in the grid to compress the ambient air in an underground reservoir, called the underground cavern. The underground cavern must be strong enough to withstand the […]
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are used in electronic devices and electric vehicles (EVs). EV’s Li-ion battery prices are commonly considered in the packed-form. For instance, the battery-pack price for EV is stated cost ($) per kilowatt-hour […]
