A lead battery energy storage system was developed by Xtreme Power Inc. An energy storage system of ultrabatteries is installed at Lyon Station Pennsylvania for frequency-regulation applications (Fig. 14 d). This system has a total power capability of 36 MW with a 3 MW power that can be exchanged during input or output.
In Figure 8, the results show that the LCOS of lead-carbon is 0.84 CNY/kWh, that of lithium iron phosphate is 0.94 CNY/kWh, and that of vanadium redox ow is 1.21 CNY/kWh. fl Lead-carbon batteries are a new generation of lead acid batteries, in which carbon is added into the negative active material of traditional lead acid batteries.
The results show that in the application of energy storage peak shaving, the LCOS of lead-carbon (12 MW power and 24 MWh capacity) is 0.84 CNY/kWh, that of lithium iron phosphate (60 MW power and 240 MWh capacity) is 0.94 CNY/kWh, and that of the vanadium redox flow (200 MW power and 800 MWh capacity) is 1.21 CNY/kWh.
Lead-carbon batteries currently have a good development momentum in China. Due to their low initial investment, high residual value, and easy recycling, the LCOS of lead-carbon batteries is the lowest. Vanadium ions are the sole electrolyte ions of vanadium redox ow batteries.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
After the end of the service life of the energy storage power station, the assets of the power station need to be disposed of, and the end-of-life costs mainly include asset evaluation fees, clean-up fees, dismantling and transportation fees, and recycling and regeneration treatment fees.
