中国储能网讯:日前据悉,Greensmith能源公司与德国E.ON Climate&Renewables公司(EC&R)开展合作,在美国德克萨斯州建成了两个9.9兆瓦的电网储能系统。
该系统在应对德克萨斯州近期的寒流发挥了重要的作用,为德克萨斯电力可靠性委员会(ERCOT)提供了短期电力。
这个位于德克萨斯州罗斯科附近的249MW的 Pyron风力发电场和197MW的 Inadale风力发电场为这两台9.9兆瓦短时波浪发电储能设施供电。其先进的储能系统可以编程为多种应用,包括快速响应需求变化、电力质量和整体电网可靠性。
Greensmith 能源公司利用业界领先的GEMS软件平台,为整个系统生命周期提供实时监控、集成控制、系统优化与安全性,为这两个储能系统提供设计、集成和调试服务。
EC&R公司能源存储北美地区副总裁Mark Frigo表示:“德克萨斯波浪发电储能项目的建成实现了我们在德克萨斯州提供清洁能源的承诺,因为电池储能系统将从位于德克萨斯州Roscoe附近的风电场设施获取电能。我们与Greensmith的合作伙伴关系确保了在创纪录的时间内成功完成了这个项目。”
Greensmith公司首席执行官John Jung说:“我们很高兴这个波浪发电储能项目在最近恶劣的天气情况下表现得如此出色,而我们将安装的储能系统将越来越多。我们很荣幸与EC&R公司继续保持合作关系,为ERCOT提供配套服务,并支持改变和改善电网的共同愿景。”
德克萨斯波浪发电储能项目是EC&R公司和Greensmith Energy合作安装的三个成功的能源存储系统之一,其他的两个项目分别是位于亚利桑那州的Iron Horse和图森的太阳能混合储能系统。(中国储能网独家编译,转载请注明来源)

Greensmith Energy starts operations at Texas Waves Energy Storage project
Published 07 February 2018
Wärtsilä's Greensmith Energy has completed two 9.9MW grid-scale energy storage systems in partnership with E.ON Climate & Renewables in the US state of Texas.
The system already responded to the recent cold snap in Texas, delivering short term energy to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT).
The two 9.9MW, short-duration Texas Waves storage facilities are fed by E.ON’s 249MW Pyron and the 197MW Inadale wind farms, both near Roscoe, Texas. The advanced energy storage systems are programmed for multiple applications including rapid response to shifts in demand, power quality and overall grid reliability.
Greensmith Energy provided the design, integration and commissioning of the turn-key energy storage systems, leveraging the company’s industry-leading GEMS software platform that provides real-time monitoring, integrated control and system optimization and safety throughout system life.
E.ON Climate & Renewables Energy Storage North America vice president Mark Frigo said: “The Texas Waves project demonstrates our commitment to delivering clean energy in Texas as the battery energy storage systems will be charged from our wind farm facilities near Roscoe, Texas.
“Our partnership with Greensmith ensured we delivered another successful project in record time.”
Greensmith CEO John Jung said: “We are thrilled how well these Texas Waves systems performed during the recent weather spells and the growing number of system deployments we've made in ERCOT.
“We are proud to continue our partnership with E.ON Climate & Renewables to provide ancillary services to ERCOT and support the shared vision to transform and improve the electricity grid.”
The Texas Waves projects represent a total of three successful energy storage systems installed by E.ON and Greensmith Energy including Iron Horse in Arizona, a solar hybrid energy storage system for Tucson Electric Power.
