Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has been researching and developing the concept of energy dumping for heat storage combined with wind energy
.
This week, the company began construction of its first truly large-scale project
in Hamburg, Germany.
Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has revealed that it is building the first comprehensive "Future Energy System – FES"
at the Trimet SE aluminum smelter in Hamburg, Germany.
The company, as a merger of Siemens' wind and renewable energy divisions, has been working on research and development on thermal energy storage, particularly heating filler for wind energy
storage.
FES will provide about 1,000 tons of rock fill, which is heated and then able to propel a steam turbine through steam at a temperature of 600 degrees Celsius to provide 30 megawatt-hours (megawatt-hours) of electricity
.
The steam turbine is then able to convert the heat back into electricity
.
A generator rated at 1.
5 megawatts will generate up to 24 hours of electricity, enough to meet the electricity needs of the average German household of 1,500 households, or it can charge
50 electric cars.
Energy storage technology is essential
to ensure that variable energy sources such as wind can supply power to the grid at all times.
However, Siemens Gamesa pointed out that some storage technologies have limited capacity and are not as cost-competitive
as others.
That's why Siemens Gamesa has been working on FES technology for a long time with the support of the German Federal Ministry for
Economic Affairs and Energy.
The company believes that the technology provides a highly economical way
to store energy.
