Energy storage technology is seen as a way to help even out the imbalance in supply and demand by storing excess energy during periods of high production and using it when needed. A large part of that is due to industrial use by large, energy-hungry industries such as steel-making, chemical manufacturing, and construction.

A new European Joint Research Centre (JRC) study looking into the supply of raw materials for the manufacture of low-carbon energy technologies found that eight metals were at high risk of shortages. The applications, i.e. technologies, of particular concern as a result are electric vehicles, wind and solar energy, and lighting.

Wind farms stand idle for days on end, a fire interrupts a vital cable from France, a combination of post-Covid economic recovery and Russia tightening supply means the gas price has shot through the roof – and so the market price of both home heating and electricity is rocketing.

That means millions of electricity storage units – the batteries – are available to the electric grid to serve peak demand, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours. But we’re still years away from operating at the scale needed to play a big part in the electricity supply solution.

Electric fuel cost is a fraction of gasoline or diesel fossil fuel cost, even at a time when petroleum prices are temporarily reduced due to geopolitical manipulations and manufacturing costs.

For some (not all) use cases, the economic advantages of going electric have been clear for a long time, and yet we’ve seen a dozen EV manufacturers go bust while trying to address the commercial market, while fleet operators continue to buy diesel vehicles, which continue to belch out clouds of oily black smoke. megawatt chargers?

Used batteries, gear shafts and cogwheels could even show up in other applications outside the automotive industry. If the energy storage system is older, it would be possible to use it in a smaller agricultural machine. As this would reduce the need to manufacture new products, it would reduce both costs and CO 2 emissions.

First, scalability: AQDS contains only the Earth-abundant atoms carbon, sulphur, hydrogen and oxygen, and can be inexpensively manufactured on large scales. These features lower the capital cost of storage chemicals per kilowatt hour, which sets a floor on the ultimate system cost per kilowatt hour at any scale. —Michael J.
