Demonstration of a low cost and environmentally friendly Zinc-Air Flow Battery Energy Storage System for renewable energy integration
www.zaess.eu
Increasing the share of clean, renewable sources in the energy mix is a clear European priority. However, two of the major sources of renewable energy – wind and solar – are intermittent by nature and integration in very large quantities requires some means of energy storage to prevent energy curtailments and guarantee system stability.
The LIFE ZAESS project aims to demonstrate an energy storage technology for increasing the share of intermittent renewable energies in the European energy mix and reducing CO2 emissions thereby.
The most important result will be the techno-economic validation of the zinc-air flow battery technology for grid scale renewable energy storage.
Objectives
1. To construct a demo scale pilot plant based on the novel rechargeable zinc-air battery technology to assess its scalability towards grid-scale facilities.
2. To gather technical, economic and environmental performance indicators to evaluate the overall performance of the technology.
3. To assess the environmental impact associated to the construction and operation of this type of energy storage facilities.
4. To study the legal and regulatory framework for the deployment of large scale energy storage facilities in order to overcome possible barriers for future renewable energy market penetration.
5. To disseminate the benefits of renewable energy storage for the reduction of CO2 emissions.

Demostración de un sistema de almacenamiento de energía basado en batería de flujo de Zinc-Aire de bajo coste e impacto ambiental para integración de energías renovables
www.zaess.eu
El aumento de las fuentes limpias y renovables en el mix energético es una prioridad europea clara. Sin embargo, dos de las principales fuentes de energía renovables - eólica y solar - son intermitentes por naturaleza y la integración de grandes cantidades requiere de medios de almacenamiento de energía para evitar vertidos de excedentes y garantizar la estabilidad del sistema.
El proyecto LIFE ZAESS tiene como objetivo demostrar una tecnología innovadora para aumentar la cuota de las energías renovables intermitentes en combinación con la energética europea y la reducción de las emisiones de CO2.
El resultado más importante será la validación técnico-económica de la tecnología de batería de flujo zinc-aire para el almacenamiento de energía renovable a escala de red.
Objetivos
1. Demostrar la escalabilidad de una nueva tecnología de baterías zinc-aire recargables mediante la construcción de una planta piloto.
2. Recopilar indicadores técnicos, económicos y medioambientales para evaluar el comportamiento global de la tecnología.
3. Evaluar el impacto medioambiental asociado a la construcción y funcionamiento de este tipo de instalaciones de almacenamiento de energía.
4. Estudiar el marco legal y regulatorio para la instalación de plantas de almacenamiento a gran escala que permitan eliminar las barreras a una mayor penetración de renovables en el mercado.
5. Divulgar los beneficios del almacenamiento de energía renovable para la reducción de emisiones de CO2.
