Get a quoteThe storage system is designed in a modular configuration, which consists of energy storage components and power-related components. Energy storage uses particle-based TES, and the particles are transported by skip hoists.
A novel standalone particle TES system is evaluated for electric energy storage. The system stores low-price, off-peak electricity as thermal energy for later dispatch to produce high-value, peak-demand electricity. The TES system uses particle-storage media at 1200°C to drive a high-efficiency combined cycle to obtain a high roundtrip efficiency.
This technology has invented by Gravity Power, a US-based company. The studies exhibit that a single P-SGES system can provide tens of MWh energy storage capacity. The starting up is done in milliseconds. The output power is 5 MW for up to 4 h. Additionally, the cycle efficiency is 75 %–80 % and the estimated lifespan is 40 years [71, 78, 81].
The main equipment of this energy storage system includes motor-generator unit, ropes, vertical mine shaft, transmission equipment, and a heavy weight (preferably high-density concrete or massive natural rocks) as shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 5. Schematic diagram of S-SGES.
The energy storage system can be integrated with CSP or a standalone TES system consisting of four subsystems: (1) a novel particle heater; (2) insulated particle storage silos; (3) a fluidized bed heat exchanger (FB-HX); and (4) a power system. Preliminary component designs were performed.
A particle-based CSP system was introduced for supporting the U.S. Department of Energy SunShot goal and considered for a Generation 3 CSP system . This paper focuses on solid-particle-based TES to serve the purpose of standalone electric thermal energy storage (ETES).
