Energy storage containers: an innovative tool in the green energy
The MW-class containerized energy storage system can be integrated into the power grid for charging, and can also be configured with new energy sources for storage and
Power Edison has a development and sales pipeline of over 1GWh of battery storage projects. Power Edison, the leading developer and provider of utility-scale mobile energy storage solutions, has been contracted by a major U.S. utility to deliver the system this year.
City University of New York (CUNY)/ConEd/NYCT performed a study pertaining to the application of wayside energy storage systems (ESS) for the recuperation of regenerative braking energy within the NYCT subway system.
In 2021, the New York City Transit Subway system consumed approximately 1,500 GWh of traction energy with a demand of about 3,500 megawatts (MW), costing around $203M. Subway trains introduced in the past 20 years have included the capability to perform regenerative braking. All new subway car procurements require regenerative braking capability.
Twenty-five percent (25%) demand reduction would result in $166,140 annual savings per substation. The maximum ESS cost to realize a 10-year ROI would be approximately $1,661,400 per substation (based on current demand power rate). Avoided Generation Capacity Costs (AGCC).
