EPRI Proprietary Licensed Material 3. Applications 3.1. Applications Overview. Due to its relative mechanical complexity and economies of scale, the VRB is most suited for utility-scale power systems in the 100 kW – 100 MW size range in applications having low power/energy ratios (long discharge durations). The principle T&D applications with these characteristics include: • DR/Peak Shaving • Spinning Reserve • Windfarm Stabilization & Dispatch It is generally accepted that the viability of electricity storage is dependent upon cases in which multiple operating modes – and multiple economic benefits – can be exploited. For example, peak shaving economics is driven primarily by the benefit of local T&D peaking capacity that the storage system provides. However, dispatch during peak times also reduces the import power requirements from the generation sources, thereby reducing generation costs. In this example, the economic benefits of the two applications are combined. While the VRB (and other storage technologies) can be used in a wide variety of applications, it is not always possible to combine them. For example, energy storage allocated for spinning reserve could not be “spent” for energy arbitrage since, in a depleted state, energy would not available if called upon for reserve 2 . Table 3 presents an overall summary of the applications requirements. The remainder of this section covers the applications in additional detail. 2 On the other hand, energy dispatched by the system operator for reserve power may result in incidental “arbitrage” benefits, depending upon the conditions of the performance contract and the market rules. This benefit would be small since the timing of the dispatch would not necessarily occur during optimal arbitrage conditions. It is worth noting that available energy capacity could be operationally “partitioned” to separately serve spinning reserve and arbitrage functions. Vanadium Redox Battery 21
