DESCRIPTION:Dr. Peter Fischer\nFraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technolog
 y (ICT)\nApplied Electrochemistry Department\nChE-602 - Recent Events in E
 nergy seminar series\n\nSince all-vanadium redox flow batteries offer the 
 possibility to realize a cheap capacity storage in the range of hours\, th
 is technology offers a great potential to be used as such a district or vi
 llage storage in the power range of single-digit MW.\n\nThe objective of t
 he large-scale project RedoxWind is the practical integration of a redox f
 low battery as a storage of fluctuating energy from a wind turbines into a
 n existing power grid. For this purpose\, a large stationary storage based
  on the all-vanadium redox flow battery with a power of 2 MW and a storage
  capacity of 20 MWh is developed and built up on ICT campus. As a power su
 pplier\, a 2 MW wind turbine with 100m post height is installed on the cam
 pus. The battery store is connected to the direct current circuit of the w
 ind turbine on the DC level. This DC connection offers advantages by savin
 g power electronics and the improved possibilities of grid stabilization. 
 The battery and wind turbine network is integrated into the local network 
 at the Fraunhofer ICT.  The talk presents the different aspects of the pr
 oject and gives an overview of the current developments of VRFB storage.
