Book Electrochemical Hydrogen Storage in Lightweight Electrode Materials

Download or read book Electrochemical Hydrogen Storage in Lightweight Electrode Materials written by Rogier Niessen and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy storage has nowadays become an important issue due to the fact that equipment is being scaled down while energy consumption is generally not reduced. This has also resulted in ever increasing environmental issues. A possible answer might be found in using clean fuels such as hydrogen. Currently, US Department of Energy (DoE) targets for the year 2010 aim at 6 wt.% of hydrogen stored on system level. Presently, energy densities achieved by commercial Metal- Hydrides reach only 1.2 wt.%. Further development of new lightweight hydrogen storage materials, based on magnesium or carbon, can provide a possible route to higher gravimetrical storage capacities. The research described in this work shows that magnesium- based alloys show excellent reversible and fast hydrogen storage properties with capacities up to 6.7 wt.%. This makes these materials very promising candidates when considering applications where hydrogen storage plays an important role. The described in-depth investigation should help shed some light on this new and exciting field of lightweight materials, and should be especially useful to professionals in academic and research environments.

Book Electrochemical Energy Storage

Download or read book Electrochemical Energy Storage written by Jean-Marie Tarascon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electrochemical storage of energy has become essential in assisting the development of electrical transport and use of renewable energies. French researchers have played a key role in this domain but Asia is currently the market leader. Not wanting to see history repeat itself, France created the research network on electrochemical energy storage (RS2E) in 2011. This book discusses the launch of RS2E, its stakeholders, objectives, and integrated structure that assures a continuum between basic research, technological research and industries. Here, the authors will cover the technological advances as well as the challenges that must still be resolved in the field of electrochemical storage, taking into account sustainable development and the limited time available to us.

Book Electrochemical Energy Storage for Renewable Sources and Grid Balancing

Download or read book Electrochemical Energy Storage for Renewable Sources and Grid Balancing written by Patrick T. Moseley and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2014-10-27 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity from renewable sources of energy is plagued by fluctuations (due to variations in wind strength or the intensity of insolation) resulting in a lack of stability if the energy supplied from such sources is used in ‘real time’. An important solution to this problem is to store the energy electrochemically (in a secondary battery or in hydrogen and its derivatives) and to make use of it in a controlled fashion at some time after it has been initially gathered and stored. Electrochemical battery storage systems are the major technologies for decentralized storage systems and hydrogen is the only solution for long-term storage systems to provide energy during extended periods of low wind speeds or solar insolation. Future electricity grid design has to include storage systems as a major component for grid stability and for security of supply. The technology of systems designed to achieve this regulation of the supply of renewable energy, and a survey of the markets that they will serve, is the subject of this book. It includes economic aspects to guide the development of technology in the right direction. Provides state-of-the-art information on all of the storage systems together with an assessment of competing technologies Features detailed technical, economic and environmental impact information of different storage systems Contains information about the challenges that must be faced for batteries and hydrogen-storage to be used in conjunction with a fluctuating (renewable energy) power supply
