Battery Seen as Way to Cut Heat-Related Power Losses
July 16, 2013 /
Several utilities, including Con Edison, National Grid and the large European utilities Enel and GDF SUEZ, have signed up to fine-tune and test what they hope could lead to an answer — a battery half the size of a refrigerator from Eos Energy Storage, the company said Tuesday. If the testing goes well, the batteries hold the promise of providing storage that until now has been unaffordable on a large scale.
"Energy storage is no longer an idea and a theory — it’s actually a practical reality," said Steve Hellman, Eos’s president. "You’re seeing a lot of commercial activity in the energy storage sector."
