Abstract:To counter the effects of global climate change, attributed to the CO 2 emissions resulting from burning fossil fuels for generating electricity and heat, global efforts are being made to achieve an energy transition. This includes that the share of energy generated using sustainable sources (e.g. solar, wind, hydro) should be increased, while the share of energy generated using fossil sources (e.g. natural gas, coal, oil) should be decreased, ultimately phasing out the usage of fossil fuels altogether.

“…Due to the incompatibilities with the BMS, the sea salt batteries achieved only an effective capacity of 2 kWh (compared to the planned capacity of 5 kWh) and a maximum power of 300 W. These incompatibilities limited the energy efficiency of these batteries to around 18%. However, as the sea salt batteries have already shown an energy efficiency of 65.5% in other tests [64], we conclude that it is important to integrate and tailor all aspects in the technology chain properly to each other.…”

“…The initial project plan was to distribute 24 sea salt batteries [64], with a total capacity of 120 kWh, over the neighbourhood. However, the development of the sea salt batteries and their integration with a battery management system (BMS)…”

“…6.6 -Batteries proved to be challenging and by that, a research project on its own. A main reason for this was the unique behaviour of sea salt batteries that is not directly compatible with the existing BMSs designed for traditional battery technologies (see Section 5.6.4 of [64]). The additional effort and time required for solving these issues made it hard to combine the development of the battery with the given goals of the GridFlex Heeten project.…”
