Multifunktionales Batteriespeichersystem

Multifunctional battery storage system. In the national research project " Multifunctional Battery Storage System (MBS) " open questions were answered concerning the technical feasibility and profitability of a grid-connected battery storage system using a vanadium-redox-flow battery in combination with the renewable power generation plants PV and small wind power (Sterrer et al., Multifunktionales Batteriespeichersystem—MBS-Endbericht. Industrielle Forschung im Rahmen der österreichischen Programmlinie Neue Energie 2020, 3. Ausschreibung, noch nicht veröffentlicht, 2013). The technical implementation and the demonstration operation of the pilot plant over a period of two years showed that the battery storage system is suitable for intelligent marketing of renewable energy as well as the provision of system services for grid stabilisation. However, the investigation of different operating strategies of the pilot battery-storage system, a large scale storage system and pooled PV/battery storage systems as virtual power plant for the participation at the energy trading market and energy reserve market showed that all operation strategies being considered in this study may not be profitable in foreseeable future. However, if the costs of the battery storage system can be reduced to about 250 €/kWh until the year 2030, the application of the vanadium-redox-flow battery in particular in large-scale storage plants (e.g. 10 MW, 100 MWh) for the participation at the energy reserve market seems realistic.fang.
