The battery Tesla will be installed in office buildings California
As you know, Corporation Tesla produces batteries not only for electric cars. In may of this year, Elon Musk announced a new development — storage systems for homes and offices that can work as a backup power source. Such systems can be installed in standalone houses with solar cells, and can be in conventional buildings, where they provide uninterrupted power supply.
Now Tesla battery plan to use the owners of large office buildings in California, USA. On Monday, The Irvine Company and Advanced Microgrid Solutions announced the intention to create a battery farm — each the size of a five standard Parking in office buildings of Irvine, California.
Software developed by a startup, allows you to switch the energy supply of buildings with regular grids on the battery "farm". This can be done during peak loads on the grid during power outages. For California, this idea makes sense — for example, on hot summer days when everywhere there is air-conditioning, the power simply can not withstand such loads, and begins to fail.
Advanced Microgrid Solutions has signed a contract with Southern California Edison on the creation of systems with a capacity of 50 MW. In the framework of this agreement the company undertakes to create a "farm" with total capacity of 10 MW before the end of 2016. Enough for example, to power 10,000 households.
According to estimates by GTM Research, the end of the year in the United States the total capacity of installed systems of this type will be 220 MW. As for Southern California Edison, by the power of the installed systems over the next few years should be 250 MW.
Battery farm, as already mentioned, will help to mitigate the burden on the stationary energy system of the city and state at the time of peak loads. And it will help to avoid the need to build "dirty" power stations that can support the work of the energy infrastructure at the peak load. By 2020, California will have to add to its grid about a gigawatt of capacity is the equivalent of a small nuclear power plant.
Building owners of the battery will help to reduce energy bills, in case, if you regularly switch from fixed network to battery.
Soon the farm will be installed in 24 different buildings. This will help to reduce the load on the city power system during peak hours by 25%. published
