Fundamentals of Battery Storage

Introduction

Battery technology may be the underpinning of the energy transition, enabling the decarbonisation of the transportation industry while providing a vital backstop for erratic solar and wind generation in power generation. Solid-state batteries signify a paradigm shift. As an alternative of the rechargeable liquid electrolytes originate elsewhere, they utilise safer, non-flammable solid electrolytes. Battery management systems also contribute to optimisation of the various batteries. Longer-lasting batteries lessen the need for expensive storage systems and energy rate for consumers. They handle heat better but also operate at frigid temperatures. 

Battery energy storage systems are the significant to real, sustainable transformation – the storage and administration of energy flows and consumption levels guarantee business activities can efficiently combine cost savings, efficiency, flexibility, and resilience. Even power grids are set to become smart systems, thanks to the onset of storage technology. 

Objectives

Battery types and technologies had progressed leaps and bounds, and they now complement the world’s initiatives towards reducing carbon emissions.

By the end of this GLOMACS Fundamentals of Battery Storage training course, the participants will learn to:

• Learn the impact of global warming
• Understand the categories of energy storage
• Describe the various battery technologies
• Analyse the battery energy storage systems
• Explain the integration of energy storage systems with the grid

Methodology

This Fundamentals of Battery Storage training course will discuss the topics using computer displays, videos and PowerPoint presentations. It is designed to have an interactive format to maximise delegate participation. Questions and answers are encouraged throughout and at the daily sessions.

Organisational Impact

Upon completion of this Fundamentals of Battery Storage training course, the organisational impact would be: 

• Technical training and up-skilling to improve and realise the full potential of a competent workforce
• Productivity increase through the understanding of battery technologies
• Identify and understand state-of-the-art battery storage technologies
• Networking of personnel with technology leaders and other engineers and technicians with solid field experience
• Attitude change of workforce, as continuous follow up of new technologies, and they’re up to taking could otherwise create a workforce with high resistance to change due to lack of understanding
• Ensure safety practices adhere when carrying out installation and maintenance activities

Personal Impact

On successful completion of this Fundamentals of Battery Storage training course, the delegate will be able to:

• Comprehend the effects of climate change
• Understand the types of energy technologies
• Understand of energy storage systems
• Review, select, and optimise energy storage
• Understand Merits of energy storage integration to the grid
