Review on energy storage applications using new developments
Solar photovoltaic (SPV) materials and systems have increased effectiveness, affordability, and energy storage in recent years. Recent technological advances make solar
Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services. The best location of the storage should be considered and depends on the service. Energy storage can play an essential role in large scale photovoltaic power plants for complying with the current and future standards (grid codes) or for providing market oriented services.
This paper proposes integrating a photovoltaic (PV) system with a lunar regolith energy storage system to form a photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system. In this design, the PV panels generate electricity for the base, while lunar regolith stores solar energy during the day and cooling energy from deep space at night.
Energy storage requirements in photovoltaic power plants are reviewed. Li-ion and flywheel technologies are suitable for fulfilling the current grid codes. Supercapacitors will be preferred for providing future services. Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services.
Nonetheless, it was also estimated that in 2020 these services could be economically feasible for PV power plants. In contrast, in, the energy storage value of each of these services (firming and time-shift) were studied for a 2.5 MW PV power plant with 4 MW and 3.4 MWh energy storage. In this case, the PV plant is part of a microgrid.
