Instead of a battery, the Gyrodrive system uses a magnetically loaded high-speed carbon-fiber flywheel to store the energy generated by a bus as it slows down to stop. Used in this way, the electro-mechanical efficiency of this technology is very high compared to competing electric storage technologies, the company notes.

The battery storage system also includes a voltage converter and power electronics to manage the energy flow between renewable energy sources, the house interface, and the Li-Ion high-voltage battery from the BMW i3. The system has been designed to be integrated into the house energy supply chain. BMW i 360° Electric.

Air can be turned into a liquid by cooling it to around -196 °C using standard industrial equipment; 700 liters of ambient air becomes about 1 liter of liquid air, which can then be stored in an unpressurised insulated vessel. The main potential applications are in electricity storage, transport and the recovery of waste heat.

A decade ago it became possible to get your electricity in the UK from a department store chain (though with the actual power supplied first by a Scottish utility and— as of 2018 —arranged and managed by Octopus Energy). It is due to open in late 2021 or early 2022. That would be something to reckon with.

For maximum efficiency the recharging of electric vehicles should be managed via the electric power companies and regulated by the public utility commissions. [ 17 ] If PHEVLERs are plugged in for recharging whenever they are parked, then their batteries can provide storage for electric energy.

V2G returns the energy stored in EV batteries to the grid. That means millions of electricity storage units – the batteries – are available to the electric grid to serve peak demand, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours. EV owners don’t view their cars as devices that store energy for someone else’s use.

In circumstances when supply is limited and time constraints apply, such as supporting on demand fast and superfast charging in the highway corridor, local solar energy generation and battery storage can fill in shortfalls from the grid. Most cars are parked 95% of the time, making EVs ideal flexibility assets for the grid.

The case for using Power-to-Gas solutions to store renewable energy is compelling for a number of important use cases, according to a new white paper released by the California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC). Constraining storage solutions to “electricity-in, electricity-out” only will increase the cost of intermittency.
