#Redwood is repurposing #GM's #EV #batteries into energy storage
“Market for #gridscale batteries and backup power isn’t just expanding, it’s becoming essential infrastructure,” said Kurt Kelty, GM VP of batteries, propulsion, and #sustainability. “#Electricity demand is climbing, and it’s only going to accelerate… GM batteries can play an integral role.” Redwood uses second-life batteries from GM EVs and new GM battery modules to create #US-built energy storage systems

#Underwater #turbine spinning for 6 years off #Scotland’s coast is a breakthrough for #tidal energy
Keeping #gridscale turbine in place in harsh #sea environment that long is a record that helps pave the way for bigger #tidalenergy farms and makes it far more appealing to investors, according to trade association #Ocean Energy #Europe. Tidal energy projects would be prohibitively expensive if turbines had to be taken out of the water for maintenance every couple of years.

Nach #IoT & #EMS legt die Forschungsgruppe FOSSEA³M nun ihr #ESTa 2.0 vor. ESTa was?

E:nergiewirtschaftliche
S:egment
Ta:xonomie

Angefangen mit den drei Ebenen

#Verteilnetz (Distribution)
Versorgung (#UtilityCase)
#Transportnetz (Transmision)

über eine profunde Marktsegmentierung mit

#Prosumer
#Residential
C&I
Utilty Scale
#GridScale

und einem Überblick der Monetarisierung:

#EPEX
#EEX
#OTC
#Redispatch
#PPA
#VPP

Hier wirds erklärt:

Another potential use for sodium ion battery tech is in grid-scale storage systems, like those mentioned here;

https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/556884/construction-capacity-can-t-keep-up-with-phenomenal-demand-for-solar-power

(#HatTip to @norightturnnz for the link)

I have no idea what chemicals are currently used when building such systems. But if they're lithium ion they'll be stupidly expensive to build, and if they're lead acid - which seems more likely - they'll need replacing much sooner.
