Chapter 4 Sodium-Based Battery Technologies Figure 5. An NAS battery installation in the Campania region of Italy is used to facilitate renewable energy transmission. Images courtesy of NGK Insulators, Ltd. (https://www.ngk- insulators.com/en/product/nas/) These are only a few examples of how NaS systems can enable grid-scale storage applications. As demand for these storage capabilities grows and research and development helps lower battery costs, increased deployment may be anticipated. 3.2. Sodium-Nickel Chloride Battery Deployments FZSoNick continues to deploy their current, modular systems for a number of large-scale storage applications, with batteries suitable for frequency regulation, load shifting, peak shaving, backup power, and renewables integration [2]. They categorize their technology space into energy backup (48V-110V modules), mobile applications (vehicles) (300V-700V modules), and energy storage (48V and 620V modules). The vehicle applications are not a focus of this Handbook, but it is worth noting that these systems are sufficiently safe and have adequate energy density for select vehicle applications. Figure 6.

FZSoNick has used Na-NiCl2 systems to provide backup power for telecommunications, public transportation, and remote site applications. At present, FZSoNick has deployed roughly 100 MWh of energy storage with approximately 2 MAh of backup storage capacity, most heavily focused around telecommunications backup. They have deployed more than 14 MWh of additional storage for use in “Energy Storage Systems” that enable renewables integration, microgrid applications, and grid services (e.g., grid balancing, voltage regulation) [2]. The backup energy market is where these batteries have found their most significant application as a large-scale system, with applications in North America, South America, Europe, and to a 9

Product and Development Focus for Infinity Turbine

ORC Waste Heat Turbine and ORC System Build Plans: All turbine plans are $10,000 each. This allows you to build a system and then consider licensing for production after you have completed and tested a unit.

Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system.

Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications.

We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery.

One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power.

In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).

Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).

We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our turbines for manufacturing.
