PeakShaving: ahorro en el consumo enérgico de tu industria

El ahorro energético se ha convertido en una de las prioridades de nuestra industria. Ahorrar en energía supone controlar el presupuesto, ser más competitivo y más independiente. Y para ello hay herramientas como el peakshaving que contribuye al ahorro en el consumo enérgico de tu industria. Las fábricas y empresas no tienen consumos lineales; por el día suele ser mayor que por la noche, hay…

Two years after a pathbreaking storage project with the Sterling Municipal Light Department in Massachusetts, NEC has added five more contracts in that state and one in Maine. The projects will add up to 20 megawatts of power capacity and more than 40 megawatt-hours of energy storage. The battery systems will help the municipal utilities reduce the consumption peaks that drive monthly transmission costs and an annual capacity charge. By predicting peaks and discharging at the right time, the storage plants save money for utility customers. The 2 megawatt/4 megawatt-hour system built in Sterling, Massachusetts for a municipal utility with fewer than 4,000 customers has already saved local ratepayers more than $1 million since December 2016, NEC said. With that project as a model, the storage manufacturer and integrator has succeeded in expanding its footprint in the growing New England storage market, where supportive state policies combine with access to wholesale market revenue to make project economics viable. “This activity is added proof of an inflection point in the adoption of energy storage in the market as municipal entities are now moving forward with projects without subsidies,” sales director Doug Alderton said via email Monday. #EnergyStorage #MunicipalUtility #Massachusetts #BatterySystems #NEC #PeakShaving https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/new-englands-municipal-utilities-get-a-taste-for-battery-storage https://www.instagram.com/p/B1aVKq0H02I/?igshid=hpdqibj3k2t

Could the United States be a net exporter of low carbon energy by 2026 ?

As President Trump makes his first declarations on the subject of energy, the EIA’s latest projections forecast that American energy production will be chiefly linked to an increase in natural gas production and a rise in renewable energies (led by wind and solar energy). While coal production is expected to fall and that of oil to increase until 2025 before stabilizing because of the operation of less productive fields, that of natural gas could account for up to 40% of the American energy mix in 2040. At a global level, the share of natural gas in the energy mix stood at 21% in 20151, but the EIA is forecasting that it will reach 24% by 2040.

As far as consumption in the United States is concerned, the EIA expects to see a rise limited to 5% in 2040 – largely owing to efforts to achieve energy efficiency in industry – but it could be as much as 11 % in the event of strong growth.

Balance of Energy Imports and Exports Expected to Change by 2026

In this projection, the United States would logically intensify its energy exports, particularly of liquefied natural gas (LNG), to foreign markets, and thus become a net energy exporter by 2026.

The EIA is also forecasting a fall of approximately 2% in America’s CO2 emissions over the period 2016-2040, thanks to a reduced share for coal in the U.S. energy mix in favor of natural gas and renewable energies and assuming the implementation of the Clean Power Plan2.

ENGIE, a player in America’s new energy mix

Operating in the United States for many years, ENGIE is supporting the transformation of the American energy mix. The Group operates power and cogeneration plants fueled by natural gas and by renewable energy such as biomass and solar. The Group is investing in the production of low-carbon energy, such as with the Cameron LNG project in Louisiana, a natural gas liquefaction and export facility, while maintaining its position as an important peakshaving supplier to natural gas utilities and power producers in New England through its Everett LNG terminal just north of Boston,ENGIE is also offering a range of integrated energy efficiency and storage solutions through its subsidiaries and through work with start-ups to its industrial and commercial customers.

Lithium-ion batteries will likely be the dominant technology for the next five to 10 years, according to experts, and continuing improvements will result in batteries that can store four to eight hours of energy—long enough to shift solar-generated power to the evening peak in demand.

Starbucks will buy a portion of power from each project: 50 megawatts from a wind project in Oklahoma owned by Allete Clean Energy (acquired from Apex Clean Energy); 50 megawatts from a Cypress Creek solar project in Texas; and 46 megawatts from a BayWa r.e. solar project in North Carolina.

More and more companies are seeing the value in Peak Shaving Energy Storage Systems to provide resilience to the power plants:

“In the C&I space, you have a lot more flexibility. First of all because it’s providing you with resilience to your [power] plants. For different manufacturers, there’s different value in resilience. At the same time, as you don’t need that [resilience] all the time, you can use the remaining charge in your battery to provide other services.” - Alvaro Garcia

The 28.2MWh of storage systems will be deployed across five distribution grid-connected sites totalling 26MW of solar PV that Syncarpha Capital is developing and will own once complete. They will comply with both federal tax credit and state SMART (Solar Massachusetts Renewable Target) criteria.
