Solar-plus-storage systems can achieve significant utility savings in behind-the-meter deployments buildings, campuses, or industrial sites. Common applications include demand charge reduction, energy arbitrage, time-shifting of excess photovoltaic (PV) production, and selling ancillary services to the grid. These also offer some resiliency during grid outages. It is often difficult quantify amount that these provide, however, this benefit undervalued omitted design process. We propose a...
The rapid development of energy storage technologies is motivating researchers to understand the possible value storage. This paper evaluates multiservice dispatch distribution-sited systems with realistic degradation models by integrating a optimization model distribution system simulator. work attempts define theoretical can bring when multiple streams are considered in modeling environment. Use cases presented this deliver services both and transmission stakeholders that provide positive...
Fermilab is involved in an effort to assemble 3.9 GHz superconducting RF cavities into a four cavity cryomodule for use at the DESY TTF/FLASH facility as third harmonic structure. The design gradient of 14 MV/m. This involves design, fabrication, intermediate testing, assembly, and eventual delivery cryomodule. We report on all facets this enterprise from through future plans. Included will be test results single 9-cell cavities, lessons learned, current status.
There are thousands of isolated, diesel-powered microgrids that deliver energy to remote communities around the world at very high costs. The Remote Communities Renewable Energy program aims help these reduce their fuel consumption and lower costs through use penetration renewable energy. As part this program, REopt modeling platform for system integration optimization was used analyze cost-optimal pathways toward achieving a combined 75% reduction in diesel oil select Alaskan village. In...
Considerations for electrifying school buses are presented with an analysis of battery sizing to match bus-driving requirements. The charging and vehicle-to-building dispatch the electric were optimized evaluate potential reduce impact bus on school's utility bill. Distributed energy resources flexible building loads also considered electrification further reductions in costs enhanced systems integration dispatch. effect degradation batteries was analyzed determine if smart-charging...
Transitioning from fossil-fuel power generation to renewable energy and storage in remote locations has the potential reduce both carbon emissions cost. We present a techno-economic analysis for implementation of hybrid system at South Pole Antarctica, which currently hosts several high-energy physics experiments with nontrivial needs. A tailored model use solar photovoltaics, wind turbine generators, lithium-ion storage, long-duration this site is explored different combinations without...
Superconducting Radio‐Frequency (SRF) cavities containing cryogens under pressure pose a potential rupture hazard to equipment and personnel. Generally, vessels fall within the scope of ASME Boiler Pressure Vessel Code however, use niobium as material for SRF is beyond applicability Code. Fermilab developed guideline ensure sound engineering practices governing design, fabrication, testing, installation operation cavities. The objective reduce hazards achieve an equivalent level safety...
