Storage is about balancing production and consumption on different

timescales…


For a high proportion of fluctuating sources long term storage becomes

necessary

UK


Storage used for very different purposes

Power-to-power use cases


Use cases that are attractive today –

cases with high power prices or grid quality issues


Siemens’ activities cover a wide range of application areas


Case study 1 – fixed containerised Li-ion battery

ENEL Italy 1MW / 500kWh


Case study 2

Triangulum: A Landmark Project

Worth around £4.5million (EUR 6million)

Transforms the ‘Manchester Corridor’ into a ‘smart quarter’

Learnings will be used to develop smart quarters in other European cities

Employs latest energy management technologies

Autonomous energy grid demonstrates how the entire district could be supplied

with heat and electricity

Greater use of electric vehicles


Triangulum

What are we trying to achieve?

Provide data into MCR-I Open Data

Platform

Work with the City Council and Universities

to create a Virtual Power Plant in a real

urban environment

Create a multi owner energy portfolio for

the Oxford Road Corridor

Connect to a mix of different new and

existing generation and demand assets

Connect to micro distributed generation

assets

Connect to buildings via Building

Management System

Create a new granular level aggregation

model

Explore the relationship between power

and heat

Provide a living laboratory to educate

citizens

Identify additional revenue streams

Define the business models to enable a

City to become energy self-sufficient


Siemens Technology & Triangulum

Technology:

• Decentralized Energy Management Systems (DEMS)

• Virtual Power Plant (VPP) management using various Siemens solutions

• Siemens SieStorage Lithium Ion Batteries

• Network Topology Analysis

• Distributed Generation Asset Modelling Software

• Building Management System integration


Case study 3

Green Ammonia

• Programme based on NH3 as an energy (storage) vector. This includes a 3-year joint

project with Innovate UK for a demonstration system, which started in

January.

• Further programmes, around improved NH3 synthesis and NH3 combustion, will follow.

• Particular challenges in electrochemical ammonia synthesis, ammonia fuel cells

and ammonia storage for vehicles.

Green Ammonia Business OpportunitiesGreen ammonia business opportunities

• NH3 Wind to Value

• 200 Mio tonnes global market

• Wind to Value competitive by 2020 for high

wind sites

• Total World market 132 Billion Euros

• NH3 Renewables Integration

• NH3 as energy storage medium

• More cost effective than Hydrogen, REDOX,

NaS or Li-ion batteries

• Comparable with CAES but without

geographic limitations

• Market potential

– 1.3B€/GW decoupled

– UK onshore 13GW in 2020

•Rescuing of Stranded Resources

• NH3 as energy vector

• Proven infrastructure for bulk transport

• Energy transport costs comparable to gas

pipelines

• Carbon-free transportation

• Easily transportable fuel

• Useable in fuel cells, diesel engines, turbines


The future – where is the greatest short term opportunity for storage?
