Use Case Analysis and Site Evaluation for Commercial Demonstration of A Long-Duration Energy Storage System

Project Innovation

The project will conduct a use case and market analytics assessment and prepare for commercial deployment of a 100-hour, iron-air, multi-day energy storage system in California. The project team will identify optimal operation of the front-of-meter, 5 MW / 500 MWh energy storage system and maximize project value at potential project sites. A demonstration site will be selected through an evaluation process to determine the most optimal location for installation of the energy storage system. This project will assess the capability of the multi-day energy storage system to both support the integration of intermittent renewable resources and provide multiple days of continuous, zero-carbon power to the grid.
