5 FAQs about [Energy storage demonstration project process]
What is long-duration energy storage (LDEs)?
This long-duration energy storage (LDES) project aims to be a key demonstration of critical power backup of an acute care hospital in the U.S. and provide resiliency in a region that is increasingly at-risk for significant power outages due to fires, storm surges, floods, extreme heat, and earthquakes.
What is a CO2 energy storage project?
The project plans to store excess energy from the grid that can be deployed when needed, taking excess energy from the grid and converting the CO2 gas into a compressed liquid form, which reduces the typical complexity and costs associated with storage.
Why is multiday energy storage important?
Project Summary: Multiday energy storage is essential for the reliability of renewable electricity generation required to achieve our clean energy goals and provides resiliency against multiday weather events of low wind or solar resources.
Where is Alliant Energy demonstrating a CO2 long-duration energy storage system?
Locations: Pacific, WI Project Summary: Through the Columbia Energy Storage project, Alliant Energy plans to demonstrate a compressed carbon dioxide (CO2) long-duration energy storage (LDES) system at the soon-to-be retired coal-fired Columbia Energy Center power station in Pacific, Wisconsin.
Why is energy storage important?
Energy storage is essential to enabling utilities and grid operators to effectively adopt and utilize the nation’s growing portfolio of clean energy resources, like solar and wind, on demand. However, today’s energy storage technologies are not sufficiently scaled or affordable to support the broad use of renewable energy on the grid.
