[pdf] Flywheels have largely fallen off the energy storage news radar in recent years, their latter-day mechanical underpinnings eclipsed by the steady march of new and exotic battery chemistries for both mobile and stationary storage in the modern grid of the 21st century grid.
[pdf] With plans to deploy 50MW of storage by 2027, Fiji’s becoming the Switzerland of energy innovation – neutral in the fossil fuel wars, armed with killer battery tech. Upcoming projects include underwater compressed air storage (perfect for marine parks) and coconut biochar carbon capture.
[pdf] While excess production capacity and a shrinking overseas demand for energy storage pose challenges, 11 leading companies have defied the odds. In the first 11 months of this year, they secured overseas orders totaling nearly 250GWh. Some companies have consistently clinched substantial deals.
[pdf] The operation of microgrids, i.e., energy systems composed of distributed energy generation, local loads and energy storage capacity, is challenged by the variability of intermittent energy sources and dema.
