for Wind and Renewables

Wind Energy Storage Japan

What can the VRB Energy Storage System do for Wind?

The VRB-ESS is a device that is capable of storing energy in multi megawatt ranges and for durations of hours or days - from any available input source such as the Grid, Renewable Resources or diesel generator. The stored energy can then be provided back into the Grid or supplied to a load as required and directed. It is uniquely capable of being charged as quickly as it was discharged and is able to respond to all forms of power quality variations so it can be operated in an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) mode as well. For loads which require reactive energy, the VRB-ESS is fully rated to provide VARS at nameplate on a continuous basis either when charging or discharging.

The VRB-ESS serves as a buffer between a variable supply sources and the firm competitive requirements of a power contract and can add capacity value to non-firm resources such as wind and Photo-voltaic (PV). Wind generation systems have a fluctuating power output due to the variability of the wind speed. A one to one response time makes the VRB-ESS capable of charging and discharging over the same duration and can provide stabilization of wind turbine output and is a source of reactive energy. Additionally, voltage can be regulated and in off grid networks, system frequency can be controlled.

The VRB-ESS is commercially available now and we are taking orders for design applications.
