The Massachusetts Energy Siting Facilities Board has approved two energy storage facilities with a combined capacity of 400 MW/800 MWh. This decision overturns previous rulings that hindered the development of these facilities. Once operational, they will fulfill 80% of the state’s 1 GWh energy storage deployment target for 2025.

The US’s largest solar + battery storage project, Edwards & Sanborn, has come online in Kern County, California. Edwards & Sanborn, which sits on 4,660 acres in the Mojave desert, was developed and is owned and operated by Terra-Gen. It comprises 875 megawatts (MW) of solar and 3,320 megawatt-hours (MWh) of energy storage. [pdf]
BRUSSELS, Dec 21 (Reuters) - The European Commission on Thursday said it had approved a 17.7 billion-euro ($19.4 billion) Italian state aid scheme to support the development of a centralised system to store electricity from renewable sources. [pdf]

The idea is to use depleted oil and gas wells as a reservoir for the storage of compressed natural gas. As needed, the gas can be released to spin a turbine and generate electricity. The reservoir is recharged using excess electricity from the grid and the cycle repeats, providing a potential solution for the growing demand for energy storage. [pdf]

Thermal Energy Storage tanks work by producing thermal energy (chilled or hot water) and distributing it to the facility during peak periods by warm and chilled water entering and exiting the tank through diffusers at the top and bottom of the tank. The diffuser system is designed to minimize turbulence and allows stratification of the water. [pdf]

Hydraulic leaks can also lead to low pressure in the accumulator. Inspect the entire system for any signs of leakage, such as puddles of fluid or oil stains. If a leak is found, identify the source and repair it accordingly. This may involve replacing damaged hoses, seals, or other components. [pdf]

Chad Augustine and his colleagues at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) see opportunity where others might simply see a hole in the ground. “It can't just be any hole in the ground,” explained Augustine, a researcher with NREL’s geothermal research group. The idea is to use depleted oil and gas. .
A similar idea, to use man-made salt caverns as a place to hold compressed air, has been proposed and implemented—but only in two places in the world. The technology is limited by geography because it. .
The NREL researchers initially considered injecting compressed air into the old wells. Augustine took that idea through the Department of Energy’s Energy I-Corps program in 2016. The. [pdf]

Black start refers to the ability of a power plant to restart parts of the power system after a blackout1. During a blackout, isolated power stations are started individually and gradually reconnected to form an interconnected system again. Gas-fired power plants eligible for black start must be able to run for 16 hours without grid-supplied power2. These plants provide the initial energy needed to activate the power grid during recovery3. [pdf]
