Conclusion The concept of liquid ammonia-water mixture fluid energy storage system is proposed in this work, the ammonia-water mixture fluid is used as working fluid in liquid gas energy storage. Ammonia-water mixture is easier to be liquefied and has the advantage of high density. Two different LAWES systems are proposed and compared.
The ammonia-based energy storage system presents an economic performance which is comparable to the pumped hydro and the compressed air energy storage systems. The major advantage of the ammonia-based system is the much broader applicability, because it is not constrained by geological conditions.
In this study, the ammonia-water mixture is used as the working fluid in LGES to address the liquefaction issue, and the number of storage tanks is reduced to one to improve the energy density. Two different one-tank liquid ammonia-water mixture energy storage systems (one-tank LAWES) are proposed and compared.
