Design and optimization of electrochemical energy storage facilities

Why do we need electrochemical storage systems?

Therefore, in order to guarantee a production of electricity in adequacy with the user’s consumption, these renewable energies must be associated with storage systems to compensate the intermittent production. Electrochemical storage systems are good candidates to ensure this function.

Are electrochemical storage systems suitable for a battery-Grid Association?

Electrochemical storage systems are good candidates to ensure this function. The correct operation of a battery-grid association including renewable energy sources needs to satisfy many requirements.

What are ancillary domains requiring energy storage?

Another perspective to this work concerns the extension of the requirements to ancillary domains such as control issues or co-design between mobile and stationary applications requiring energy storage (smart and micro grids, multi-source systems, V2H and V2G new developments). A second line of research concerns optimization issues.

Are there gaps in pre-design methods for batteries?

A review of the literature identifies many gaps in the pre-design methods for batteries and more generally for electrochemical energy storage devices.

Is localized battery integration cost-effective?

A California case-study indicates localized integration to be cost-effective for greater grid flexibility. Li-ion batteries can mitigate the residual demand fluctuations of small to medium-sized plants, while NaS batteries would be best-suited for larger storage with higher renewable penetration.

What is optimal design for electromagnetic devices?
