Description

Beyond Li-ion Batteries for Grid-Scale Energy Storage by Garrett P. Wheeler, Lei Wang, and Amy C. Marschilok explores the growing need for grid-scale energy storage systems to improve the resilience of power grids and integrate renewable energy sources. The implementation of battery systems is crucial for peak shaving, load leveling, voltage and frequency regulation, and emergency power supply. However, Li-ion batteries have limitations due to cost, safety, and sourcing concerns. This book analyzes existing technologies beyond Li-ion battery storage chemistries that have seen grid-scale deployment, as well as promising new battery technologies. The authors examine the chemistry mechanisms, battery construction and design, and corresponding advantages and disadvantages of these alternative battery technologies, providing valuable insights for those involved in energy storage system installations.
