6 FAQs about [Gb energy storage]
What are the applications of geothermal battery energy storage (GB)?
There are other potential applications for the GB system. These include direct heat applications for large-scale, high temperature continuous or intermittent requirements [, , , ]. 8. Conclusion The Geothermal Battery Energy Storage (“GB”) concept relies on using the earth as a storage container for heat.
Is a GB reservoir economically viable?
Consideration of a GB reservoir where efficient stored heat recovery is possible is dominated by reservoir properties evaluation. The GB concept will only be economically viable for selected geologic locations.
Will a large-scale energy storage system be needed?
No matter how much generating capacity is installed, there will be times when wind and solar cannot meet all demand, and large-scale storage will be needed. Historical weather records indicate that it will be necessary to store large amounts of energy (some 1000 times that provided by pumped hydro) for many years.
Will GB have storage if incentives are not in place?
If the incentives that will be required to catalyse the necessary investments are not in place soon, GB will not have the storage that will be required when it is needed. The Royal Society has produced a report (PDF) that addresses the issues and a briefing document (PDF) summarising the findings.
Could a GB be a geothermal reservoir?
The GB is a storage concept that would allow such enhancement any time, whether or not there is contemporaneous solar radiance. The primary concern for this option would be the existence of a proper formation adjacent to a current geothermal reservoir, possibly as an overlying upper formation.
What are the different types of energy storage?
There will also be a role for other, more efficient, types of storage. Nuclear power, and burning biomass (and perhaps some natural gas) and capturing the carbon-dioxide, may also play a role; however, these forms of generation are not well to suited to providing all of the flexibility that will be needed to complement wind and solar power.
