プレゼンテーション概要

  • Storage is a critical component to an advanced power delivery system. If electricity generating facilities had access to bulk cheap storage they could be operated around the clock at optimal intensity.
  • As for renewables such as wind and photovoltaic solar, storage is the enabling technology that addresses their intermittency and thereby qualifies them to contribute to baseload capacity.
  • The elements of electrochemical energy storage will be described along with examples of current technology including research being conducted at MIT on a new concept in large-format energy storage: the liquid metal battery.
  • The technology is being commercialized via a startup company, Liquid Metal Battery Corporation, here in Cambridge.
