Redox Flow Batteries (RFBs) are a versatile and durable type of electrochemical storage promising option for large-scale stationary energy storage. Aqueous Organic (AORFBs) an innovative category RFBs that utilize organic species as active molecules in aqueous electrolytes. These allow customization their properties to achieve high technical performance reduce battery cost. This study presents comprehensive techno-economic analysis AORFBs, evaluating cost metrics associated uncertainties....
Currently, the characterization of electric energy storage units used for power system operation and planning models relies on two major assumptions: charge discharge efficiencies, limits are constant independent state charge. This approach can misestimate available flexibility. work proposes a detailed model steady-state Li-ion batteries in optimization problems. The characterizes battery performance, including non-linear as function requested power. We then derive linear reformulation...
This paper presents an economic assessment of seawater thermal energy storage (TES) integrated with industrial heat pumps to couple renewable electricity generation urban district heating networks. Using Amsterdam as a case study, we develop techno-economic model leveraging real-world data on prices, demand, and system costs. Our findings show that large-scale TES using medium significantly enhances economics through arbitrage operational flexibility. The optimal configuration yields net...
