Wind power generation is not periodic or correlated to the demand cycle. The solution is energy storage. Figure 1: Example of a two week period of system loads, system loads minus wind generation, and wind generation. There are many methods of energy storage. ow chart. Figure 3: Illustration of an electro-chemical storage battery cell.
In this note, we provide updated estimates of the material intensities of 17 materials, in kg per MW of wind energy installed (considering the wind turbines and their foundations), based on the existing types of wind turbines.
Schematic of a battery supported hybrid wind power generation facility 53. The battery system not only balances the fluctuations in wind energy production but also responds to changes in energy demand over time.
Hybrid wind storage systems are often integrated with local electricity grids 55. Through this integration, excess energy from wind farms can be fed into the grid, or energy from the grid can be used to meet demand. This enhances grid stability and promotes the use of renewable energy sources.
As cited in the DOE OE ES Program Plan, “Industry requires specifications of standards for characterizing the performance of energy storage under grid conditions and for modeling behavior.
