This project will increase the region’s Research and Innovation (R&I) capacity by creating a cross border Virtual Research Graduate School in the area of Mass Energy Storage (MES). It will boost collaboration between Research Institutes and SMEs and intensify technological innovation and commercialisation in the region. The project will focus on how the wide-scale deployment of MES can allow very high levels of renewable energy to be integrated into power grids globally. Variable renewable energy (VRE) resources (e.g. wind and wave) cannot be controlled, and require measures such as energy storage to integrate them into existing power grids. Energy can be stored in bulk using large-scale storage, or at smaller scales using MES devices, owned and operated by domestic and business consumers. Ireland, NI and Scotland have among the best wind, wave and tidal resources in the world and are regarded globally as a test bed for the deployment of services and technologies to manage very high levels of VRE. MES is crucial to achieving a global transition to clean energy. It allows for optimal use of existing infrastructure, has a less burdensome planning process than large-scale storage, and can be installed rapidly. While progress has been made with large-scale storage, there has been limited development of MES. This project will assess the ability of MES to operate profitably in the UK and Irish electricity markets, and how MES can be used to maximise the whole-life performance of VRE systems operating in harsh environments.
