https://lnkd.in/gXk8T57A Fossil fuels have a lot of stored up energy, but it's hard to capture all of it when you actually want to use it. By contrast electrical energy goes right into the work you actually want to do. This paper provides a great overview.
The development of battery technologies utilizing the low-cost and abundantly available materials for large scale energy storage is crucial for advancing renewable energy adoption, ensuring grid reliability and resilience, and decarbonizing the energy sector. This innovative iron flow battery technology pioneered at PNNL holds promise as a viable solution to these challenges. #Feflow, #PNNL.

I’ve followed Form Energy’s progress for a while now. Cost effective and efficient long-duration energy storage has a lot of appeal. The typical duration for lithium-ion BESS is four hours; the duration for Form Energy’s iron air technology is up to 100 hours. Round trip energy efficiency and the delta between different storage technologies is an important consideration. The less surplus (low to no cost) power available the more important the consideration is. Iron air batteries are appreciably less efficient than lithium-ion. They also require more space for the same amount of storage, so their primary use will be for grid scale energy storage. CapEx for iron air BESS is reported to be about 10% of that for lithium-ion based systems. Iron is a relatively low cost and abundant resource. It is mined at enormous scale, including in countries with democratically elected governments, rule of law and meaningful protections for miners and the environment.
After attending the prestigious INTERNATIONAL BATTERY SEMINAR & EXHIBIT, it's abundantly clear: clean energy and the significance of energy storage technology and solutions are paramount in today's market. With the demand for grid power steadily rising, the imperative to integrate energy storage solutions is more pressing than ever. It's crucial for us as an industry to streamline operations, ensuring we meet demand without incurring unnecessary costs during peak hours. The electric power grid operates on a delicate balance between supply (generation) and demand (consumer use). A key strategy to manage fluctuations is through storing electricity during periods of high production and low demand, releasing it back during times of lower production or higher demand. Common methods of energy storage encompass pumped hydroelectric, compressed air, flywheels, batteries, and thermal energy storage.

The Importance of Energy Storage Daniel Krashin discusses the importance of energy storage. #probabilitymanagement
In this clip, Alex Thornton, Executive Director at LF Energy, discusses the increasing complexity in the energy sector due to the rise of renewable energy sources like solar and the widespread use of electric vehicles (EVs). He explains how these developments have transformed the traditional one-way electricity flow into a distributed system. Flexibility is crucial for managing variable renewable energy generation and Thornton talks about the different strategies operators need to adopt to balance the grid. #ev
