Electrical energy storage is critical to the decarbonization of the power sector because it provides a carbon-free energy source while also ensuring the effective use of renewable energy resources.
Electrical energy storage is critical to the decarbonization of the power sector because it provides a carbon-free energy source while also ensuring the effective use of renewable energy resources. Energy storage technologies can reduce emissions by approximately 57%. (Maryam Arbabzadeh, 2019). This groundbreaking technology enables the integration of multiple renewable energy sources, including wind and solar energy. It has great potential to contribute to the net-zero coalition (the goal of reducing carbon emissions to as close to zero as possible by 2050).
Energy Storage Technologies
Several types of energy storage technologies can be utilized to incorporate the required flexibility in the power network to facilitate more renewable integration. Thermal energy storage traps heat from the sun and stores it in the form of molten salts, water, or other fluids to convert for use later. Pumped hydroelectric energy storage allows storing energy as water, through two reservoirs situated at different altitudes. One of the most common energy storage technologies today is electrochemical in nature. This type of storage uses an electrochemical process to store electrical energy. Most common electrochemical storage units are based on flow and Lithium-ion batteries.
Introduction to Reflex
At Reon, we have introduced Reflex Energy Storage incorporating the Li-ion battery to enhance the power network flexibility for industries. Reflex Energy Storage, coupled with intelligent Spark Microgrid Controls, allows for improved efficiency and leads to savings in energy costs up to 2%.
Reon’s Vision for Pakistan’s Energy Crisis
Reon is convinced that launching industrial-scale storage technology projects, particularly those combining solar and wind energy, can alter the dynamics of organizations and the power sector. It improves the electrical grid's reliability and flexibility. This results in an alternative energy source, which can also be used as backup support during power outages. Furthermore, the storage technology allows for lower capital costs spent on coal and biomass for the burners. This reduces greenhouse gas emissions and contributes to the goal of a carbon-neutral global economy.
At Reon, we work to assist industries in shifting to energy storage technology in order to develop a clean and sustainable energy supply. It is critical for consumers, particularly those in the industrial sector, to understand that energy storage technology is the way of the future. This is the path that leads to effective cost savings and efficient energy utilization.
