What are epri research portfolio?
- maintain tech awareness and provide guidance
- facilitate availability of storage product
- faciliate integration
- analyze uses, benefits, costs
Focus 2013 for P94
- analysis
- grid deployment
- actual specification of hardware
key issues in 2013 for P94?
- safety and reliability
a. high profile incidents magnify risks
b. standard approach to mitigation can address risk - product integration
a. technology is maturing, but integrated solutions are nascent, early stage, hard to go out and procure battery simply with a boiler plate specs, b/c not a lot of products have been deployed, ESIC - tools to assess value of storage. more to be done in ESVT
- informing the government
a. policy initiatives are opportunity and challenge
b. storage as a business arise from regulatory treatment of storage
c. EPRI is stand ready to inform when requested, from a technical standpoint.
what are the base programs?
- strategic intelligence and technology assessments
- distributed energy storage options for power delivery
- bulk power energy storage solutions
What is ESIC (energy storage integration council)?
- a forum
- technical working group, sponsored by P94 and its members
- brings together vendors, researchers, utilties, national labs, everyone.
- faciliate reliable safe and cost-effective energy storage options for utility industry.
- collabroatively develop well-articulated requirements for utility-scale storage projects and products
what is the approach for ESIC?
- two-day technical meetings twice a year
- webcast availability for non-attending members
- First meeting Akron, Ohio, Aug. 6
What is 94.001
Strategic intelligence and tech assessments
- strategic intelligence update newsletter (Bill)
- cost and technical capabilities of energy storage (haresh)
- monitoring and reporting on energy storage demonstrations (nadav)
- energy storage valuation tool 4.0 Beta
- ESVT CPUC
what is cost and technical capabilities of energy storage project?
deliverable: cost and technical capability of energy storage (cost database).
approach: conduct technology deep dives on individual technologies to understand present and future costs and capabilities. focus on lithium ion batteries this year
What is 94.002?
- Distributed ES options for Power Delivery
what is distributed ES options for Power Delivery
- promote standard terminology
one: distribution energy storage technology reference guide (satish)
- -create reference materials for utilities to specify procure install and commission safe and reliable distribution ES
- -materials include reference technical specs, test plans, test results as available - distribution energy storage integration guide (ARINDAM MAITRA)
- -integration of the storage product with the grid
- -can call it interconnection
- -develop analytical tools to predict how storage affects the grid
- -continuation of openDSS - Distribution ES with PV systems–case studies
- -describe field testing of two ES systems at solar TAC facility in Denvor, CO
- -solar-2-battery (S2B) Lead Acid
- -Community ES project SODIUM NIC - Peak Load Management of Thermal Loads using Advanced Electrothermal Technologies
- -2013 lab testing efforts
- -Ice energy
- -energy storage capacity of 2 Ton-hr
- -Hot water
- -deployed in Britain, trying to get it in to Knoxville
what is 94.003
Bulk Power Energy Storage Solutions
- -bulk storage tech reference guide (Sean Wright)
- -ES for transmission contingency (steve eckroad) midwestern, utility, grid data, black start
- -Demonstration of 36mw/24mwh advanced lead acid battery at 150MW wind farm (notree) Steve Eckroad, deploy xtreme power battery at notrees winde farm
supplemental: battery storage systems and applications demonstration
- Dan
- deploy a prototype system built according to a spec developed collabroatively by utilities
- -apply standardized analytical tools to assess grid impacts and benefits
- deploy the system that was build with the specs
- -old lithium ion demo
- -utility brings their own systems, joins collaborative, everyone share the experience with everyone.
- -taking storage systems from community size to mw scale
- -international representation
supplemental two: assessment of grid benefits of fuel cell at utility substation
- dan
- case study to look at performance metrics
- efficiency, reliability availability
- -3MW solid Oxide Fuel Cell on utility substation
- -collaborate with bloom energy and delmarva power -the host utility
- -gain data and experiences to enable follow on utility business case decision
Supplemental: tool for distribution level energy storage assessment and integration
case study based distribution level energy storage assessment
apply tool to participant utilities
develop and validate impact/value integration specification framework
–conduct case study on one feeder
–understand how to determine an avoided cost case
–develop algorithum of storage operation
supplemental project: Advanced CAES demo (robert)
PG&E: 25M cost share to design build 300MW 10hour plant total project cost about 300M to 450M
–NYPA 2M cost share to desin and build 10MW-4.5Hour plant using an aboveground air store, total project cost 20M to 22M
approach
- -phase 1: preliminary geologic siting, engineering costing, permitting
- -plant construction support
- -plant performance monitoring (2yrs)
what are ESIC’s four represenations
- system development
- grid deployment
- applications
- performance
