Electrify America recently unveiled its first application of a megawatt-level battery energystorage system (BESS) for electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, building upon the company’s existing BESS installations at more than 150 stations across the US, including more than 100 installations in California.
Electrify America plans to install 30 electric fleet-dedicated chargers paired with battery energystorage systems (BESS) at the Port of Long Beach, California, as part of Electrify America’s $25-million “Green City” investment in the region at the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles.
The chargers utilize the fastest technology availabletoday—providing speeds of up to 150kW and 350kW—to help reduce the amount of time spent charging. Stations are located along major routes and in metro areas, placed near shopping, banking and dining amenities.
That is about three times as much power per square centimeter as other membrane-less system—a power density that is an order of magnitude higher than that of many lithium-ion batteries and other commercial and experimental energy-storage systems. A paper on the work is published in Nature Communications. —Braff et al.
economical to store or transport. Such natural gas contains energy. Capturing this energy would reduce both waste. Electron Energy Corporation will develop a technology to. lower cost than those availabletoday, based on a friction. ARPA-E OPEN 2012 selections: Transportation EnergyStorage.
Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology enables EV owners to sell electricity stored in their car’s battery back to the grid or to use it for powering their homes. It aims to offer its AC bidirectional charger at a price comparable to that of a monodirectional charger availabletoday.
Heat-Pipe PCM Based Cool Storage for Air-Cooled Systems The project team will develop a novel storage system that collects and stores heat rejected from a power plant condenser during the day until the heat waste can be more efficiently rejected during the night at lower ambient temperatures. TDA Research. ALPHA AWARDS.
Another strikingly different concept evidenced by the PHEV is that it is essentially a large, portable battery that can storeenergy gathered during one part of the day, and then use it later to power not only itself but also the vehicle owner’s home. PHEVs’ batteries can be used as the storage medium.
Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your storedenergy back to the utilities. Currently, there are some industrial facilities that use battery swapping to replenish the energystores of electric forklifts.
