Energy Storage Demonstration

The collaboration, sponsored by the California Energy Commission (CEC) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), involves the installation of up to five advanced energy-storage technologies within California. To track the performance of these technologies, monitors for detailed data acquisition will be installed at each demonstration site. Energy-related parameters, such as voltage, current, energy in, and energy out, will be sampled, and the resulting data will be stored for subsequent analysis and presentation.

A ZBB flow battery installed at a Pacific Gas & Electric substation to mitigate distribution congestion, provide voltage support, and reduce peak loads in the distribution system transformer.	A Beacon Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) to demonstrate the feasibility of using a flywheel to provide frequency regulation services to the California Independent System Operator (CaISO).	A Dynamic Stabilizer using Maxwell Ultracapacitors to provide ride through for power interruptions to critical loads and mitigate power quality problems on a wind turbine/hydro micro grid for the Palmdale Water Treatment Plant.
