It is reported that Statoil will install lithium battery storage systems
in the world's first floating wind farm, the Scottish offshore wind farm.
On March 21, Statoil said in a statement that it had signed agreements with the Scottish government, the Offshore Renewable Energy Agency and Scottish businesses to develop the new system, called Batwind, in partnership with Scottish universities and equipment providers
.
Stephen Bull, Senior Vice President of Offshore Wind at Statoil, said: "By developing innovative battery storage solutions, we can increase the value
of wind energy for Statoil and our customers.
”
Statoil revealed that the system, which will be installed by the end of 2018, has a battery capacity equivalent to the battery power of "more than 2 million iPhones"
.
Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy provide poor continuous stability of electricity, so storage is very important in the low-carbon transition of renewable energy in the future
.
A recent report from the Carbon Trust found that energy storage has the potential
to save €2.
4 billion (US$3.
46 billion) a year by 2030.
Statoil's storage system will be piloted
at the Hywind offshore "wind farm" in Scotland.
The wind farm has five floating turbines and is currently under construction and will start electricity production
by the end of 2017.
Statoil said the wind farm will be able to power
about 20,000 homes when completed.
Scottish Energy Minister Fergus Ewing said: "The system will not only help maximise renewable energy generation at Hywind offshore wind farms, but also inform energy storage at the same time, demonstrating the ability
of Scotland and the world to support renewable energy.
