Energy Storage Systems and Components

This book will provide the technical community with an overview of the development of new solutions and products that address key topics including electric/hybrid vehicles ultrafast battery charging smart grids renewable energy (e. g. solar and wind) peak shaving and reduction of energy consumption. The needs for storage discussed are within the context of changes between the centralized power generation of today and the distributed utility of tomorrow including the integration of renewable energy sources. Throughout the book methods for quantitative and qualitative comparison of energy storage means are presented through their energy capacity as well as through their power capability for different applications. The definitions and symbols for energy density and power density are given and relate to the volume and weight of a given system or component. A relatively underdeveloped concept that is crucial to this text is known as the theory of Ragone plots. This theory makes possible the evaluation of the real amount of energy that can possibly release out of a given system with respect to the level of power dependency chosen for the discharge process. From systems using electrochemical transformations to classical battery energy storage elements and so-called flow batteries to fuel cells and hydrogen storage this book further investigates storage systems based on physical principles (e. g. gravitational potential forces air compression and rotational kinetic energy). This text also examines purely electrical systems such as superconductive magnets and capacitors. Another subject of analysis is the presentation of power electronic circuits and architectures that are needed for continuously controllable power flow to and from different storage means. For all systems described the elementary principles of operation are given as well as the relationships for the quantified storage of energy. Finally Energy Storage: Systems and Components contains multiple international case studies and a rich set of exercises that serve both students and practicing engineers. | Energy Storage Systems and Components

Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook

Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook

In the current push to convert to renewable sources of energy many issues raised years ago on the economics and the difficulties of siting energy storage are once again being raised today. When large amounts of wind solar and other renewable energy sources are added to existing electrical grids efficient and manageable energy storage becomes a crucial component to allowing a range of eco-friendly resources to play a significant role in our energy system. In order to fulfill our intended goal of diminishing dependence on non-renewable sources of energy and reducing our carbon footprint we must find a way to store and convert these novel resources into practical solutions. Based on the efforts of a University of Colorado team devoted to increasing the use of renewable energy production within the current electrical power grid Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook examines a number of ways that energy can be stored and converted back to electricity. Examining how to enhance renewable generation energy storage relative to economic and carbon impact this book discusses issues of reliability siting economics and efficiency. Chapters include the practicalities of energy storage generation and absorption of electrical power; the difficulties of intermittent generation; and the use of pumped and underground pumped hydroelectric energy storage. The book highlights the storage of compressed air battery energy solar thermal and natural gas sources of energy. Heavily referenced and easily accessible to policy makers developers and students alike this book provides contributions from those active in the field for coverage of many important topics. With this book as a foundation these pioneers can develop the capacity of power grids to handle high renewable energy generation penetration and provide a brighter future for generations to come.
