North America's Ultimate Hot Spot for Energy Storage Solutions SAN FRANCISCO, USA

USA: THE STATE OF THE UNION

US president Donald Trump may have the pulled the country out of the Paris Climate Change agreement but its impact on the shift into renewables and the related energy storage industry could well be minimal. The age of energy storage is arriving. And arriving very fast.

“With falling prices and better technology, US states will continue to pursue their own targets, known as renewable portfolio standards — irrespective of Trump’s position,” says one commentator. “Arguably if the US had pulled out a year or more ago the impact would have been greater, but now there’s momentum on the industry’s side. The age of energy storage, the corollary to the renewables revolution, has arrived.” Several states are pushing through bills that will take their electricity generation to near-100% renewables by 2040. Leaders here include California, Hawaii, Nevada and Massachusetts.

Falling costs of solar PV and lithium batteries have resulted

in bargain prices for utility-scale solar PV-plus-storage projects in the US. One such project being built in Hawaii, coupling 28MW of solar PV with 20MW/100MWh of battery storage, achieved a power purchase agreement (PPA) price of $0.11/kWh, between Kaua’i Island Utility Cooperative (KIUC) and energy storage system developer AES. The system will provide 11% of Kaua’i’s electric generation, taking KIUC’s renewables-based generation to over 50%.

According to KIUC’s chief executive David Bissell, the project delivers power to the island’s electricity grid more cheaply than the cost of oil-fired power. “It is remarkable that we are able to obtain fixed pricing for dispatchable solar-based renewable energy, backed by a significant battery system, at about half the cost of what a basic direct-to-grid solar project cost a few years ago,” he said.

Energy storage balances the gridIn grids with high amounts of renewable energy penetration, energy storage is required for balancing the grid. But the technology’s versatility in addressing a variety of issues has contributed to efforts at the federal level to accelerate the deployment in the US grid as a whole, helping to create a new industry and jobs on US soil. The renewables industry now employs more workers than the oil, gas and mining sectors combined.

THIS JULY’S EES/INTERSOLAR IN SAN FRANCISCO LOOKS SET TO BE DOMINATED BY DISCUSSIONS OVER THE US COMMITMENT TO RENEWABLES AND ENERGY STORAGE. DESPITE THE PRESIDENTIAL HEADLINES, THE OUTLOOK IS POSITIVE.

This May, US Congressional representatives — Chris Collins, a Republican, and Mark Takano, a Democrat — launched the Advanced Energy Storage Caucus in Congress. They are supported by executives from utilities, storage developers and integrators, as well as manufacturers of storage system components, such as batteries and inverters. The Caucus aims to educate Congress on the benefits of storage to the US electricity system and explore ways to accelerate job growth and investment in the advanced energy storage sector as a whole. Crucially, the Caucus will also examine how changes to existing policy can facilitate uptake of battery storage.

Back from the brink Perhaps the project that showed more than any other how battery energy storage is an alternative to conventional generation is the 104.5MW of capacity being brought online, following the Aliso Canyon natural gas leak. In October 2015, a leak was detected at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility in the San Fernando Valley near Los Angeles in California. In addition to providing gas to the locality it also provided 10GW of capacity for electricity generation, by supplying 17 gas-fired power stations.

Attempts by Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas), to plug the leak failed and Aliso Canyon had to be shut down. However, taking such a large facility off-line would have led

to rolling blackouts across the state. No other technologies could be constructed in time to support the grid, except battery storage. In May 2016 the California Public Utilities Commission approved the installation of 104.5MW of battery energy storage systems in the service territories of Southern California Edison (SCE) and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E).

By the beginning of March, seven out of eight energy storage projects were commissioned, to provide up to four hours of energy demand and support the grid’s stability that had been provided by the gas peakers. Two-thirds of the battery storage capacity was built and commissioned within six months. Enabling such speedy construction of grid-scale battery storage is the degree of familiarity that the state’s public utilities already have with the technology, as they strive to meet their 1.3GW storage mandate by 2021.

Among the Aliso Canyon energy storage facilities up and running is the 20MW/80MWh Mira Loma battery storage plant, supplied by Tesla, within three months. The installation consists of two 10MW systems of Powerpacks made at the company’s factory in Nevada. Energy storage software developer and integrator Greensmith Energy, recently acquired by global power producing equipment provider Wärtsilä, deployed a 20MW/80MWh lithium ion battery installation at AltaGas’ Pomona gas facility.

Samsung SDI, was designed, built, and became operational in under four months. SDG&E commissioned two of AES Energy Storage’s Advancion energy storage units, totalling 37.5MW. The installations have to provide up to four hours of energy capacity.

The Lone Star State Texas has one of the highest penetrations of renewables. It is the biggest wind state, with installed capacity in excess of 16GW. There is a boom in solar now that the technology has become so competitive. Provision of grid balancing services in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has emerged as a key driver for energy storage in the state. The first commercial energy storage project built to provide fast response regulation services to ERCOT is a 10MW battery at the Rabbit Hill substation in Georgetown. Energy storage company Alevo Group has supplied the 10MW battery system, which is owned and operated by Georgetown Utility Systems and the city of Georgetown.

In 2015 Georgetown became the first municipally-owned utility in Texas and one of the first in America to buy 100% of its energy from renewable sources. To mitigate the impact of such heavy reliance on intermittent sources of electricity generation, energy storage will play an increasingly important role in Georgetown Utility Systems’ energy supply mix. Jim Briggs, general manager for utilities for the City of Georgetown,

said the use of energy storage with renewables “makes basic economic sense”.

Greensmith Energy is providing the North American subsidiary of German power producer Eon with two 10MW/5MWh lithium ion battery storage systems. Each is a 10MW/5MWh lithium ion battery storage system configured to primarily provide FRRS to the ERCOT power market, but also other ancillary services. The batteries, which can inject power into the grid for up to 30 minutes from a full state of charge, can be charged from the grid or from the wind farms they are connected to.

According to Greensmith Energy CEO John Jung, the company is seeing more requests from existing wind farms due to the technology’s potential to provide frequency regulation and also smooth any frequency dips caused by intermittancy. The city of Austin is host to a project that will see aggregated individual energy storage systems, connected with solar PV, operate as a single virtual power plant. Technology provider is Stem which is working with Austin Energy.

Longer-term, the model will show how aggregated, customer-sited energy storage systems can help utilities like Austin Energy reduce costs associated with ERCOT coincident peaks, defer investment in substation upgrades, and provide clean, reliable power to customers.

The program’s goal is to reduce the cost of electricity from combined solar and storage projects to below $0.14/kWh.

In Texas fast-responding long-duration energy storage also has big potential, as the state continues to install more wind, requiring time-shifting as well as grid-balancing characteristics of storage.

Virtual Power Plants provide grid scale benefitsOne exciting new area of business comes from software that aggregates small, distributed behind-the-meter installations creating virtual power plants (VPP) that provide grid scale benefits.

The logistics of establishing how VPP technology interfaces with utilities’ own grid control centres, as well as the roles of energy service providers, rate structures and the market regulatory framework are all areas that need to be addressed.

As part of New York’s Reforming Energy Vision (REV), in the summer of 2016 New York utility Con Edison, US solar module maker and installer Sunpower and energy storage firm Sunverge launched a $15 million pilot deploying residential solar-plus-storage systems and applying VPP in a real grid environment.

In the pilot, 300 homes have solar panels leased from Sunpower and energy storage systems from Sunverge installed and connected.

These are being aggregated together to operate as a virtual power plant to test various applications, including peak shaving, capacity markets and transmission and distribution

(T&D) deferral. One of REV’s goals is for New York to reach a target of 50% renewable energy by 2030.

Con Edison has been investigating how it can incentivize adoption of rooftop solar by customers, and also how the technology with energy storage can defer distribution grid expansion investment.

Aggregated VPP functions include peak shaving and peak demand management as well as frequency control.

Long term, Sunverge wants to be able to provide VPP software for harnessing individual distributed energy resources to work as single grid resources.

The software is hardware agnostic and pilots and roll-outs in US states, including not only New York, but also California, Colorado and Hawaii, are enabling Sunverge to prove the performance of its VPP software and be in a strong position once demand for it accelerates.

In Hawaii, following changes in legislation that ended net-metering for standalone solar PV systems, in favour of solar-plus-storage, VPP platforms are becoming more common. One such project is a 1MW fleet of aggregated storage capacity installed across 29 customer sites to accommodate more renewable energy resources on the grid on O‘ahu.

In the project Stem’s software-driven storage acts as a VPP to manage a diverse range of load shapes and site characteristics to serve the needs of the utility, Hawaiian Electric, in real time.

Expect to hear much more about the latest developments in the ERCOT market at the ees/Intersolar show in July in San Francisco.

7 | 7EES AWARDS

The three winners this year for the most innovative concepts and solutions from the energy storage industry were Solarwatt, LG Chem and Energy Depot Deutschland.

“Each had a distinctive product or approach that made them stand apart from their rivals — that said, this year the level of the submissions was again extraordinarily high,” an ees spokesman said.

“The winners of the ees AWARD 2017 all work in the area of lithium-ion technology and distinguish themselves through modularity, scalability and smart components.”

The ees AWARD 2017 ceremony — now in its fourth year — takes place at the end of the fi rst exhibition day at ees Europe, Europe’s largest and most visited exhibition for batteries and energy storage systems. The award has become widely accepted as the most important in the industry.

Solarwatt: Customized energy storage systemsSolarwatt Matrix employs two intelligent, standardized, interconnected building blocks that create tailor-made energy storage systems in its MyReserve Matrix battery.

The battery has been designed to be completely modular enabling any storage capacity from 2kWh to 2MWh to be confi gured. Because of its size — each module is housed in aluminum blocks slightly smaller than a car battery — and relatively light weight of 25kg, the modules can be adapted for residential use as well as commercial storage.

Part of its appeal, Olaf Wollersheim, managing director of the Solarwatt Innovation Centre, told Energy Storage Journal is that the battery was designed for open interfaces, “energy can be stored not just from PV inputs but from as diverse sources as fuel cells. It is compatible with almost all inverters and can also take up to 900V of input.”

The battery can even be integrated into a virtual power plant

via an open software interface. This is the second time that Solarwatt has won the award.

LG Chem: A compact battery module with stamina LG Chem, has developed a stand-alone battery module, high energy-density product ready for multi-purpose use. The module is suitable for a variety of applications and off-grid supply solutions thanks to a charging strategy which ensures the ideal charge transfer between battery modules.

The system is durable and easily maintained, retaining 80% of its initial capacity after 10 years. The design fi ts into a standard 19-inch rack. The judging panel said they had been impressed by the easy system connection and integration of up to 10 battery modules.

Energy Depot Deutschland Energy Depot Deutschland’s CENTURIO Energy Storage System is a combination of a hybrid inverter and lithium-ion battery modules for the storage, conversion, distribution and control of photovoltaic energy. The DC-coupled system comprises the Centurio 10 hybrid inverter, DOMUS 4.1 batteries and the Vectis 30 smart power switch and meter.

The modular and scalable system has been devised for a balanced infeed into all three phases (phase symmetry) and is highly effi cient from a partial-load of 20% below of the nominal load on. The yield from the PV installation can be used immediately or stored in batteries until needed with very little loss. The judging panel said they had been impressed with its innovative design approach to creating an inverter specialized in energy storage systems.

IT TOOK A LONG TIME COMING — SOME OF THE BEST THINGS DO — BUT FINALLY AFTER MORE THAN THREE MONTHS OF ANALYSIS BY EES’ TEAM OF INDEPENDENT EXPERTS, THIS YEAR’S AWARD WINNERS WERE CHOSEN.

AND THE WINNERS ARE … THE EES AWARD 2017

The judging panel said the submissions focused on the most burning topics for the energy storage industry: effi ciency, longevity and fl exibility.

To determine the winners, the panel also applied additional criteria: degree of technological innovation, the benefi t for industry, environment and society, and economic viability.

Furthermore, the products submitted must have already reached the testing or application phase or else represent an important development of existing solutions.

ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES RESHAPE LATAM'S ENERGY SECTOR

Electrical energy storage is going to be the next big thing sweeping across Latin America. Increases in solar deployment across the region — the market is forecast to triple in size in the coming fi ve years — will be the trigger for a boom in energy storage.

Commercial opportunities now exist in the commercial and industrial (C&I) sector, for microgrid applications and

rural electrifi cation projects. The intellectual framework has been moving into place too. Brazil’s electricity industry has a well established R&D program mandated by the National Regulatory Agency ANEEL, and electrical energy storage related research has been on the agenda of various Brazilian R&D facilities for decades.

One of the conference sessions will provide an inside track view on the current status of research for stationary energy storage being undertaken and what the prospects are in the near and mid-term. Another session will discuss the related research for e-mobility and its future prospects.• The ees (electrical energy storage) global exhibition

series is the industry hotspot for suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and users of stationary and mobile electrical energy storage solutions.

• ees is a special exhibition running within Intersolar South America 2017 and is dedicated to storage solutions for renewable energy, from domestic and commercial applications to large-scale storage systems for stabilizing the grids.

BATTERY TECHNOLOGIES ENHANCE INDIA’S GRID RELIABILITY

The Indian government has supported the solar industry in various forms for the past 30 years but it was only in 2009, when the Gujarat Solar policy was introduced, that the sector leapt forward. And it was the following year that the industry went mainstream with the announcement of the National Solar Policy and its ambitious set of projects and targets.

From a mere 12MW in 2010, the grid-connected, solar-installed capacity had risen to 12GW this March. By March 2018, the installed capacity should be near 25GW with an ambitious plan to reach 100GW target by 2022.

With continued large-scale integration of the intermittent solar power into the grid, a manageable threshold is fast approaching. The time for introducing grid-scale projects —  BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) — has arrived.

But stationery power is only part of the larger picture now emerging,

The National Institution for Transforming India (NITI Aayog), a think-tank set up by Narendra Modi, the prime minister, plans to accelerate adoption of electric and shared vehicles. The aim is to save $60 billion in diesel and petrol costs while cutting down as

much as one gigatonne of carbon emissions for India by 2030. It’s a challenge.

With just 5,000 electric vehicles on the road at the end of 2016, this fi gure needs to rise to 10 million by 2030. This means the cost of EVs must come down drastically and an extensive infrastructure of charging stations created across the country.

The Intersolar/ees/Power2Drive conference and exhibition aim to help change challenges to reality.

REVIEW: EES/INTERSOLAR, EUROPE

“It’s a natural fi t —  solar plus storage,” one exhibitor told Energy Storage Journal. “And what we’re starting to see now is the commoditization of energy storage. It’s the next step for the industry.

“There’s been a huge infl ux of entrants into the market and we’ve moved from a situation where a few early players dominated product sectors to one where there’s lively competition over quality and price.”

The history of ees Europe refl ects this: just four years ago there were 48 exhibitors and 2,100 square meters of exhibition space. This year there were 254 international companies exhibiting occupying 17,500 square meters of space. And that was roughly a 40% increase over the previous year.

“ees Europe is the most important date in the exhibition calendar because it opens up great opportunities for business and its excellent marketing attracts a fi rst-class international customer base,” said Daniel Hannemann, managing director at Tesvolt.

“We fi nd the contacts to support the development of sustainable solutions for industry and commerce here at this exhibition.”

The exhibition is being held in parallel with Intersolar Europe, arguably the world’s leading exhibition for the solar industry and its partners.

This year’s exhibition focused on large-scale storage systems and grid integration, as well as e-mobility and global storage

system markets. Another central topic was the optimization of self-consumption in private homes and commercial buildings — how buildings can best use the electricity generated on their roofs.

Part of the reason for this has been the rapid market development, which has been driven by falling energy storage prices. Over the past three years alone, the cost of solar storage systems — in particular lithium-based systems — has plummeted by more than 40%.

EuPD Research expects the market volume for PV storage systems in Europe to reach an annual volume of €552 million ($610 million) by 2020, of which over €300 million is expected to be generated in Germany.

The accompanying ees Europe Conference held at the International Congress Center — next door to the exhibition hall on the Tuesday and the Wednesday — offered participants an even deeper insight into current trends.

The hot topics at the two-day conference ranged from storage systems for private homes, commercial and industrial buildings, as well as e-mobility, to the developments in the most important markets, energy management and the political framework for the future energy economy.

A total of over 1,700 visitors from 77 countries participated in the ees Europe Conference, the side events, and the Intersolar Europe Conference taking place in parallel — up some 30% over the previous year.

LOOKING DOWN THE HUGE AND CROWDED HALLS OF THE EES EUROPE EXHIBITION IN MUNICH IN EARLY JUNE AND YOU’D HAVE GOOD REASON TO BELIEVE THAT ENERGY STORAGE HAD FINALLY COME OF AGE. LOOK ACROSS TO THE PACKED HALLS OF THE PARTNER EXHIBITION, INTERSOLAR EUROPE, AND YOU REALISE HOW FAR THE INDUSTRY HAS MOVED.

The huge number of attendees to the exhibition — the combined ees/Intersolar show attracted some 40,000 people — required special processing measures by Messe München. Their solution was to automate the process. A simple QR code on the admission ticket could be scanned at the 20 or so entrance gates automatically printing off the delegate’s badge or allowing repeated entry.

At the ees Forum experts, exhibitors and startups offered insights into the latest developments in the energy storage industry on all three exhibition days.

The keynote presentation kicking off the forum came from market research institute EuPD Research which reported on the status quo and the future of the energy storage markets in Germany and across the world.

The ees Forum featured presentations and discussions from specialists and

experts from all over the world. These included the legal conditions for the profi tability of energy storage systems, installation and operation safety, and quality assurance — and perhaps most interestingly for those seeking to understand what their competitors were up to, presentations from the shortlisted fi nalists for the ees Award.

On the second day the Forum looked at issues such as market strategies for suppliers of small scale and commercial

storage devices, fi nancing start-ups and e-mobility.

On June 2, the closing day of the exhibition, the ees Forum turned to large-scale storage systems and later in the day residential storage.

“We couldn’t attend the conference,” one exhibitor later told Energy Storage Journal, “But our visits to the Forum turned out to be a useful way to get informed on some of the major trends in the industry.”

APP, APPROVAL

THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME … THE SMARTER E

Hot, hot, hotPart of the increasing relevance of the ees/Intersolar exhibition and conference is the way that the two events continue to capture the hot trends of the moment.

This year the topics of e-mobility and mobile storage systems were among the most important trends at this year’s ees Europe. The new mobile applications are also serving to expand the market, which until recently was dominated by stationary storage systems.

Record solar+storage installationsAcross Germany there are already some 60,000 power storage systems installed and by 2020 this fi gure will be around 170,000. “Market growth is being driven by continued declines in system prices,” says the German Solar Industry Association. “Over the past three years the price for lithium-based systems has fallen by around 40%”

Increasing product range, growing storage capacityProducts installed several years ago were for the most part smaller storage with a maximum usable capacity of 5kWh. Now

much larger systems are available with capacities of over 15kWh.

German government support availableGerman state bank KfW has set up a funding program consisting of a low interest loan and generous repayment terms to boost grid-assistive storage systems.

Battery poolsStorage manufacturers are combining multiple individual solar power storages systems into fl exible battery pools that can provide power around the clock. As a result members of these battery pools receive electricity at cheaper rates. Inexpensive surplus electricity can also be sold at a higher price when demand rises.

Next year, the ees and Intersolar exhibition and conference series will be put under a new umbrella, called The Smarter E.

“It’s far more than just a rebranding, it’s refl ecting the way that the energy storage industry is moving,” says Horst Dufner, senior project manager at Solar Promotion GmbH, the event organizer.

“What we’re seeing now is the gradual interconnection between energy storage in the fi elds of electricity, heat and transportation. It’s an integrated picture. The Smarter E will act as a strong link, covering renewable energy production, distribution, storage and the intelligent use of energy.”

In practice this means that the format of the present exhibition will be expanded. Two new events will be introduced: Power2Drive, looking at e-mobility and EM-Power, an exhibition looking at the intelligent energy use in industry and buildings.

“E-mobility is a central pillar of the energy transition,” says Dufner. “Electric vehicles, especially when fuelled by energy from renewable sources, make an important contribution to this transition as effi cient and climate-friendly mobility solutions. And due to the development of increasingly powerful batteries, electric vehicles are also gaining signifi cance as storage resources. The Power2Drive concept is an extension of this year’s well attended E-mobility and Renewable Energy special exhibit. At Power2Drive, the spotlight will be on traction batteries and charging infrastructure for e-mobility.

“This is the best app for a show that I’ve ever had,” one delegate told Energy Storage Journal. “It’s got everything, comprehensive details of every exhibitor — including the ability to favourite them — as well as a timetable of events, a fl oor plan and other details.”
