1. Electrical Energy Storage for the Grid: A Battery of Choices

   Bruce Dunn, Haresh Kamath, Jean‐Marie Tarascon · 2011 · Science · 15,001 cites

   The increasing interest in energy storage for the grid can be attributed to multiple factors, including the capital costs of managing peak demands, the investments needed for grid reliability, and the integration of renewable energy sources. Although existing energy storage is dominated by pumped hydroelectric, there is the recognition that battery systems can offer a number of high-value opportunities, provided that lower costs can be obtained. The battery systems reviewed here include sodium-sulfur batteries that are commercially available for grid applications, redox-flow batteries that offer low cost, and lithium-ion batteries whose development for commercial electronics and electric veh

2. Sodium-ion batteries: present and future

   Jang‐Yeon Hwang, Seung‐Taek Myung, Yang-Kook Sun · 2017 · Chemical Society Reviews · 5,268 cites

   Energy production and storage technologies have attracted a great deal of attention for day-to-day applications. In recent decades, advances in lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology have improved living conditions around the globe. LIBs are used in most mobile electronic devices as well as in zero-emission electronic vehicles. However, there are increasing concerns regarding load leveling of renewable energy sources and the smart grid as well as the sustainability of lithium sources due to their limited availability and consequent expected price increase. Therefore, whether LIBs alone can satisfy the rising demand for small- and/or mid-to-large-format energy storage applications remains uncle

3. The role of renewable energy in the global energy transformation

   Dolf Gielen, Francisco Boshell, Değer Saygin, et al. · 2019 · Energy Strategy Reviews · 4,930 cites

   This paper explores the technical and economic characteristics of an accelerated energy transition to 2050, using new datasets for renewable energy. The analysis indicates that energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies are the core elements of that transition, and their synergies are likewise important. Favourable economics, ubiquitous resources, scalable technology, and significant socio-economic benefits underpin such a transition. Renewable energy can supply two-thirds of the total global energy demand, and contribute to the bulk of the greenhouse gas emissions reduction that is needed between now and 2050 for limiting average global surface temperature increase below 2 °C. Enab

4. Power-Electronic Systems for the Grid Integration of Renewable Energy Sources: A Survey

   J.M. Carrasco, Leopoldo G. Franquelo, Jan T. Białasiewicz, et al. · 2006 · IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics · 4,030 cites

   The use of distributed energy resources is increasingly being pursued as a supplement and an alternative to large conventional central power stations. The specification of a power-electronic interface is subject to requirements related not only to the renewable energy source itself but also to its effects on the power-system operation, especially where the intermittent energy source constitutes a significant part of the total system capacity. In this paper, new trends in power electronics for the integration of wind and photovoltaic (PV) power generators are presented. A review of the appropriate storage-system technology used for the integration of intermittent renewable energy sources is a

5. Na-ion batteries, recent advances and present challenges to become low cost energy storage systems

   Verónica Palomares, Paula Serras, Irune Villaluenga, et al. · 2012 · Energy & Environmental Science · 3,560 cites

   Energy production and storage have become key issues concerning our welfare in daily life. Present challenges for batteries are twofold. In the first place, the increasing demand for powering systems of portable electronic devices and zero-emission vehicles stimulates research towards high energy and high voltage systems. In the second place, low cost batteries are required in order to advance towards smart electric grids that integrate discontinuous energy flow from renewable sources, optimizing the performance of clean energy sources. Na-ion batteries can be the key for the second point, because of the huge availability of sodium, its low price and the similarity of both Li and Na insertio

6. Room-temperature stationary sodium-ion batteries for large-scale electric energy storage

   Huilin Pan, Yong‐Sheng Hu, Liquan Chen · 2013 · Energy & Environmental Science · 3,311 cites

   Room-temperature stationary sodium-ion batteries have attracted great attention particularly in large-scale electric energy storage applications for renewable energy and smart grid because of the huge abundant sodium resources and low cost. In this article, a variety of electrode materials including cathodes and anodes as well as electrolytes for room-temperature stationary sodium-ion batteries are briefly reviewed. We compare the difference in storage behavior between Na and Li in their analogous electrodes and summarize the sodium storage mechanisms in the available electrode materials. This review also includes some new results from our group and our thoughts on developing new materials.
