Electrochemical energy storage in batteries is attractive because it is compact, easy to deploy, economical and provides virtually instant response both to input from the battery and output from the network to the battery.
Currently, stationary energy-storage only accounts for a tiny fraction of the total sales of lead–acid batteries. Indeed the total installed capacity for stationary applications of lead–acid in 2010 (35 MW) was dwarfed by the installed capacity of sodium–sulfur batteries (315 MW), see Figure 13.13.
Lead batteries are very well established both for automotive and industrial applications and have been successfully applied for utility energy storage but there are a range of competing technologies including Li-ion, sodium-sulfur and flow batteries that are used for energy storage.
Energy storage using batteries is accepted as one of the most important and efficient ways of stabilising electricity networks and there are a variety of different battery chemistries that may be used.
However, you should never add acid that is concentrated but you should dilute the acid to the requisite levels before adding to the battery. Remember, when diluting acid never add water to the acid as this will react explosively. Always add acid to water. The concentration levels may be ascertained by measuring the specific gravity of the mixture.
When the battery is operational, a communication and monitoring system is needed, generating data for the operator and bringing real time visibility on the battery’s condition. Data analysis contributes to extend the lifespan of batteries by maintaining their capacity and anticipating any dysfunction.
