Flow Battery Energy Storage System (FBESS) Flow batteries are a relatively young technology. Their operating principle is based on reversible electrochemical reactions that occur in a set of cells connected in series, parallel or both, in order to achieve the desired voltage level.
In this section, a review of several available technologies of energy storage that can be used for wind power applications is evaluated. Among other aspects, the operating principles, the main components and the most relevant characteristics of each technology are detailed.
Proper control of the batteries improves the predictability of wind power plants and therefore, the associated costs for their grid integration regarding reserve requirements can be decreased, since great precision in matching their output with their forecast power is achieved.
That arrangement addresses the two major challenges with flow batteries. First, vanadium doesn’t degrade. “If you put 100 grams of vanadium into your battery and you come back in 100 years, you should be able to recover 100 grams of that vanadium—as long as the battery doesn’t have some sort of a physical leak,” says Brushett.
A flow battery contains two substances that undergo electrochemical reactions in which electrons are transferred from one to the other. When the battery is being charged, the transfer of electrons forces the two substances into a state that’s “less energetically favorable” as it stores extra energy.
