Technical FAQs 4

How is energy storage capacity calculated?

The energy storage capacity, E, is calculated using the efficiency calculated above to represent energy losses in the BESS itself. This is an approximation since actual battery efficiency will depend on operating parameters such as charge/discharge rate (Amps) and temperature.

Can FEMP assess battery energy storage system performance?

This report describes development of an effort to assess Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) performance that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) and others can employ to evaluate performance of deployed BESS or solar photovoltaic (PV) +BESS systems.

Can air be used as a storage medium for thermal energy systems?

The use of air as heat transfer fluid and a packed bed of rocks as storage medium for a thermal energy system (TES) can be a cost-effective alternative for thermal applications. Here, a porous media turbulent flow (standard ) and heat transfer (local thermal non-equilibrium) model is used to simulate the discharge cycle of such system.

What is the time parameter for a charge & discharge cycle?

It is important to highlight that the time parameter is the same for both charge and discharge cycles and indicates the amount of time that a perfect charge (or discharge) would take, meaning when the system would be 100% charged (or discharged) at 100% energy retention (or delivery) efficiency (relative to the solid material storage availability).
