    Vlaanderen koploper in thuisbatterijen, Nederland omarmt nieuwe markt grootschalige energieopslag

    Na jaren ‘the next big thing’ te zijn geweest, heeft energieopslag in de Benelux in 2021 definitief voet aan de grond gekregen. De run op batterijen in Vlaanderen is een voorproefje van wat Nederland te wachten staa

    De vraag naar thuisbatterijen zal loskomen als de salderingsregeling voor zonnepanelen wordt afgebouwd. Tegelijkertijd heeft het volle stroomnet in Nederland de vraag naar grootschalige energieopslagsystemen doen ontbranden. De grote uitdaging voor het kalenderjaar 2022 wordt daarmee niet het verkopen van batterijen aan eindgebruikers, maar het alloceren van voldoende batterijen voor de Vlaamse en Nederlandse markt.

    Het enthousiasme rond energieopslag in combinatie met een even sterke vraag naar elektrische auto’s heeft in 2021 geleid tot een tekort aan batterijcellen. Doordat autofabrikanten grootverbruikers zijn, moeten ontwikkelaars van energieopslagsystemen nu steeds grotere bestellingen plaatsen om een toewijzing van de productie van fabrikanten veilig te stellen. Waar een project van 5, 10 of 20 megawattuur tot voor kort indruk maakte, is dat niet langer het geval. Wereldwijd zijn er namelijk niet genoeg fabrieken om aan de huidige vraag naar batterijen te voldoen. Dat iedereen daarbij enkel batterijcellen van tier 1-fabrikanten probeert te sourcen, draagt daar negatief aan bij.

    Tekort
    Het internationaal energieagentschap IEA heeft in zijn Renewable Energy Market Update inmiddels gepleit voor substantiële overheidsmaatregelen, omdat er anders ook een tekort zal ontstaan aan belangrijke grondstoffen voor batterijen; van kobalt tot lithium, nikkel en koper. Het IEA voorspelt een verviervoudiging van de vraag naar deze grondstoffen in de periode tot 2040.

    Zonder overheidsinterventie kunnen de prijzen van de grondstoffen sterk gaan fluctueren en onderdeel worden van een geopolitiek spel, met alle nadelige gevolgen van dien voor de energietransitie. Het overheidsbeleid zou daarom gericht moeten zijn op het aanjagen van de productiecapaciteit en het verplichten van recycling.

    Voortdurende expansie
    Tekort aan grondstoffen en daarmee batterijen of niet, de wereldwijde markt voor energieopslag kan de komende jaren volgens marktonderzoeksbureau IHS Markit een verdriedubbeling van de verkopen tegemoetzien. In 2030 zal de energieopslagsector jaarlijks ruim 30 gigawatt (red. het vermogen, dus niet de daadwerkelijke opslagcapaciteit) aan energieopslagprojecten realiseren; een stijging van 250 procent ten opzichte van de 12 gigawatt in 2021.

    Het markeert het begin van een periode van voortdurende expansie, met een jaarlijkse wereldwijde installatie van meer dan 20 gigawatt in 2024 en 30 gigawatt in 2030. Een krapper aanbod van lithium-ionbatterijen zal weliswaar vertragingen veroorzaken, maar de groeivooruitzichten volgens de onderzoekers niet aantasten. Wel waarschuwen ze voor vertragingen bij de oplevering van energieopslagsystemen, omdat batterijcelfabrikanten op momenten van krapte grotere klanten in de automobielindustrie voorrang geven boven relatief kleine systeemintegrators voor energieopslag. De huidige tekorten zullen zich daarbij volgens IHS vanaf begin 2023 oplossen.

    Blik in de toekomst
    De aankondiging van Elon Musk dat klanten verplicht worden om bij Tesla-zonnepanelen een Powerwall-batterij te kopen, geeft een kleine blik in de toekomst van zonne-energie. Heel vreemd is dat niet, want meer dan driekwart van de Amerikaanse installateurs biedt al energieopslagsystemen aan hun klanten. Meer dan 60 procent verkoopt al laadpalen voor elektrische auto’s. Eenzelfde ontwikkeling is in Duitsland zichtbaar, waar de adoptiegraad van batterijen bij zonnepaneelverkopen al rond de 90 procent ligt. Daarbij hebben de oosterburen naar alle waarschijnlijkheid in 2021 voor het eerst meer dan 100.000 thuisbatterijen verwelkomd. In Italië, een van de andere markten waar de batterijverkopen snel groeien, werd in de zomer van 2021 een mijlpaal bereikt met de aanmelding van het 50.000e energieopslagsysteem.

    G&D Energy: ‘Opkomst thuisbatterij zal in Nederland sneller gaan dan verwacht’

    Hasco Invest verwierf begin november een meerderheidsbelang in G&D Energy. Dit bedrijf behoort tot de top 3 van zonne-energie-installateurs van België. Het realiseert dagelijks 12 tot 15 pv-systemen bij consumenten.

    Het bedrijf zette in 2021 bovendien 15 megawattpiek aan zakelijke projecten en meer dan 1.200 thuisbatterijen weg. In zijn groeiambities heeft het tevens de ogen op Nederland gericht. ‘We zijn inmiddels ver in het gesprek met een overnamekandidaat’, aldus Gert Geraerts. ‘Ook in Nederland is nog heel veel te doen in de energietransitie en de thuisbatterij zal er sneller doorbreken dan de meesten denken.’

    In 8 jaar van niks naar een omzet van zo’n 17 miljoen euro. Hoe doe je dat? Allereerst door te geloven in jezelf. ‘Ik werkte al een tijd bij een zonnepanelenbedrijf toen in 2013 de Vlaamse markt volledig instortte’, vertelt Geraerts. ‘Dat kwam door het afschaffen van de groenestroomcertificaten. Daarvoor was het feest in de markt, het geld kon niet op. Plotseling gingen er een heleboel bedrijven failliet omdat de vraag naar pv vrijwel volledig wegviel. Ik dacht dat ik het beter kon en startte G&D Energy.’

    Volgevreten
    Het installeren van 2 pv-installaties per maand was voldoende voor Geraerts om zijn brood te verdienen; hij deed het in zijn eentje. Het werd er echter al snel 1 per week, en na een half jaar 1 per dag. In 2021 installeert G&D zo’n 3.000 zonne-energiesystemen bij particulieren en nog eens zo’n 20 zakelijke installaties van 100 tot 250 kilowattpiek. Er werken inmiddels 45 mensen. Wat is de basis voor dit succes?

    ‘Allereerst begon ik op een moment dat iedereen was volgevreten. Ik had echter honger. Maar het heeft ook te maken met efficiency en flexibiliteit. Ons proces is volledig digitaal ingericht: ontwerp, verkoop, planning, facturering, monitoring… Dat biedt klanten gemak en overzicht, en het helpt ons snel en foutloos te handelen. Daarnaast werken we met externe verkopers, op basis van commissie. Dat motiveert uiteraard. Tegelijkertijd laat ons digitale format geen ruimte voor rare dingen, bijvoorbeeld met prijzen en productadvies.’

    Onhoudbaar model
    De constant stijgende lijn van G&D Energy werd ook in 2021 niet doorbroken, hoewel de markt voor pv-installaties vanaf 1 januari een flinke knauw kreeg. Met het afschaffen van de digitale teller voor pv-eigenaren liep de vraag met zo’n 60 procent terug. Geraerts zag dit moment echter al jaren aankomen. ‘Saldering, in wat voor vorm dan ook, slaat eigenlijk nergens op. Je zonne-energie opslaan op het net en die op een later tijdstip weer tegen dezelfde prijs afnemen, is een onhoudbaar model en het is ook niet duurzaam. Het was duidelijk dat dit ooit moest gebeuren. Wat dat betreft, kun je de Vlaamse overheid niets verwijten, behalve dan het totale gebrek aan heldere communicatie. Er is ook een prima alternatief: de thuisbatterij. Wij zijn 3 jaar geleden al begonnen met enkel nog pv-installaties aan te leggen met een hybride omvormer. Dat kost wellicht een beetje meer, maar daarmee waren deze klanten wel voorbereid op het toevoegen van een thuisbatterij.’

    Zwaar onderschat
    G&D Energy heeft in 2021 vol geprofiteerd van de vooruitziende blik van Geraerts. Hoewel de verkoop van pv-installaties is afgenomen, is dat ruimschoots gecompenseerd door de installatie van meer dan 1.200 thuisbatterijen, het leeuwendeel bij klanten die eerder een pv-installatie bij G&D Energy afnamen. De groei zit er dus nog steeds in, maar de ambitie van Geraerts gaat verder dan ieder jaar 20 procent plussen. Onlangs stapte het Hasseltse Hasco Invest in om grote stappen te kunnen zetten.

    Geraerts: ‘Er is ontzettend veel te doen in de energietransitie. De marktkansen voor ons zijn nog steeds groot, bijvoorbeeld in het uitrollen van onze thuisladers voor elektrische auto’s. In België staan we daarin echt op achterstand. G&D Energy is een financieel sterk bedrijf. Maar om ook in de toekomst relevant te zijn, is volume kunnen draaien noodzaak en de deelname van Hasco Invest is daarvoor cruciaal. De Vlaamse vraag naar pv-systemen zal herstellen en die naar batterijen heel snel toenemen. Wij hebben in 2021 een belangrijk marktaandeel kunnen pakken, mede dankzij onze hechte relaties met toeleveranciers.’

    Dutch New Energy Research: ‘2022 wordt het jaar van de doorbraak van energieopslag’

    2022 wordt het kalenderjaar waarin energieopslag in Nederland zijn definitieve doorbraak beleeft in de zakelijke zonne-energiemarkt. In Vlaanderen heeft de thuisbatterij al voet aan de grond gekregen.

    Dat zal in Nederland echter nog enkele jaren duren. Maar er is geen nood aan de man, want installateurs hebben ook in 2022 hun handen vol aan de uitrol van zo’n 1 gigawattpiek aan zonnepanelen op de daken van huizen. Dat stelt Steven Heshusius, hoofdonderzoeker bij Dutch New Energy Research, het onderzoeksbureau dat verantwoordelijk is voor de publicatie van het jaarlijkse Nationaal Solar Trendrapport, de Dutch Solar Quarterly en sinds kort ook de European Solar Quarterly.

    2021 kan wat Heshusius betreft de boeken in als het jaar van de onbalans. ‘De gevolgen van de coronapandemie zijn nu echt zichtbaar geworden. Wereldwijd terugkerende en aanhoudende lockdowns hebben op alle vlakken tot een verstoring van vraag en aanbod geleid. In de distributieketen, waardoor letterlijk een tekort aan grondstoffen voor zonnepanelen is ontstaan met stijgende prijzen als gevolg, maar ook op de energiemarkt, in de logistiek en op het stroomnet.’

    Uitdagend
    Het ligt volgens de onderzoeker in de lijn der verwachting dat die onbalans in de loop van 2022 grotendeels hersteld wordt. ‘In welk kwartaal alles weer “back to normal” is, is echter moeilijk te voorspellen. Met de voortdurende aankondigingen van de uitbreiding van de productieketen – van silicium tot nieuwe typen zonnecellen en wafers tot zonnepanelen – zullen in elk geval de prijzen voor zonnepanelen uiteindelijk weer gaan dalen.’

    ‘De toekomst voor de Nederlandse zonne-energiesector kent de komende jaren steeds meer uitdagingen’, vervolgt Heshusius. ‘Dit is met de impact van de coronacrisis en het steeds vollere stroomnet pijnlijk naar voren gekomen. Een groot aantal SDE+(+)-projecten is uitgesteld door het gebrek aan transportcapaciteit, en door de stijgende zonnepaneelprijzen als gevolg van het wereldwijde grondstoffentekort worden dit er waarschijnlijk meer. Desondanks heeft Nederland in 2021 meer dan 3 gigawattpiek zonnepanelen geïnstalleerd en dat zal ook in 2022 het geval zijn.’

    Cap
    Dutch New Energy Research publiceert ieder kwartaal de Dutch Solar Quarterly, publiceert jaarlijks in januari het Nationaal Solar Trendrapport en sinds eind 2021 ook de European Solar Quarterly. Uit het onderliggende marktonderzoek van deze publicaties blijkt volgens Heshusius dat Nederland ook de komende jaren een van de koplopers in Europa blijft. Wel ziet hij hoe huidige ontwikkelingen op termijn de toekomstige groei in de sector kunnen drukken. Zo vormt het standpunt van de Haagse politiek over de cap van 35 terawattuur voor wind- en zonne-energie in de subsidieregeling SDE++ een barrière voor toekomstige projecten. ‘Want zelfs in onze meest voorzichtige scenario’s voorzien wij in 2025 al een opgesteld vermogen van 15 gigawattpiek commerciële pv-systemen. Samen met de voorziene windparken op land wordt de doelstelling van 35 terawattuur hierdoor al 5 jaar eerder behaald dan in het Klimaatakkoord voorzien.’

    Pivot Power Starts Work on West Midlands Battery Storage Site

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    16 Dec, 2021, 5:30 am

    Pivot Power, part of EDF Renewables, has broken ground on a grid-scale battery storage facility in Sandwell, northwest of Birmingham. Connected to the transmission network at National Grid’s Bustleholme substation, the site will help to create a greener energy grid and accelerate the UK’s drive to net zero. The 50MW/100MWh lithium-ion battery will store enough electricity to power over 100,000 homes for 2 hours1. It will support the integration of more renewable energy and increase the resiliency of the electricity system by automatically charging and discharging to balance supply and demand and manage intermittency.

    The Sandwell site forms an integral part of Pivot Power’s Energy Superhub network, designed to deliver up to 2 GW of transmission-connected battery storage and high-volume power connections across the UK.

    Sandwell will be one of the first communities in the country to benefit from this unique infrastructure investment, which will reduce the region’s carbon emissions, improve air quality, and support sustainable economic growth.

    Alongside a similar site in Coventry, which is due to begin construction in early 2022, it will replicate core elements of Pivot Power’s Energy Superhub Oxford project, one of the most ambitious urban decarbonisation projects undertaken in the UK to date which combines a cutting-edge 50MW hybrid battery with Europe’s most powerful electric vehicle (EV) charging network.

    The site will also help to supercharge the West Midlands’ green transport revolution by creating the power infrastructure for mass-scale, rapid electric vehicle (EV) charging. Once work has been completed on the battery, Pivot Power plans to install a private-wire network, creating the power infrastructure to deliver large amounts of power for rapid EV charging to strategic locations in the local area, from public charging hubs to bus depots and commercial fleets.

    New York, Oslo and Luxembourg, December 16, 2021, FREYR Battery (NYSE: FREY) (“FREYR”), a developer of clean, next-generation battery cell production capacity, has executed its inaugural offtake agreement for at least 31 GWh of low-carbon battery cells with an undisclosed, leading global publicly listed manufacturer and provider of energy storage systems (“ESS”). The two companies have agreed to jointly develop innovative technology solutions for the fast-growing global ESS market based on battery cells manufactured by FREYR.
    “Announcing our first significant offtake agreement is a major milestone. This development advances us towards a final investment decision, the start of construction on our initial Gigafactories, and industrial-scale commercialization of FREYR’s clean battery cells,” said Tom Jensen, the CEO of FREYR.
    Highlights
    Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the agreement, FREYR is to deliver at least 31 GWh of battery cells from 2023 to 2028 from its Norwegian manufacturing facilities. The anticipated volumes represent close to half the currently estimated production in Gigafactory 1 in Mo i Rana, Norway in the period.
    FREYR’s total potential revenues from this agreement could equate to approximately $3 billion from 2023 – 2028 based on FREYR’s current price forecasts.
    FREYR’s new partner is one of the largest technology solutions providers in the global ESS market, with a GWh-scale fleet of deployed ESS capacity worldwide and a multi-billion-dollar market capitalization.
    The parties will package FREYR’s sustainable, next-generation battery cells using 24M Technologies’ (“24M”) innovative design and process platform with the partner’s leading stationary ESS solutions to drive standardization and cost optimization in the utility space. 24M’s significantly larger and thicker electrode design is intended to deliver higher energy density per volumetric unit while also reducing production costs
    “Battery-based energy storage solutions are key to accelerating the decarbonization of worldwide power systems, and the rapidly growing global ESS market represents a multi-billion-dollar commercial opportunity for FREYR,” said Tom Jensen. “The combination of FREYR’s next-generation clean battery production and our new partner’s deep ESS project expertise should provide industrial and utility customers with differentiated, integrated solutions in the battery storage markets globally.”
    A recent industry research report by Goldman Sachs estimates that the annual total addressable market for battery storage applications will grow to $33 billion by 2030, when total installed capacity is projected to reach 950 GWh. FREYR is progressing commercial discussions with additional potential significant offtake customers in the global ESS market, in addition to the EV and marine segments.

    Florida Power & Light unveils world's largest solar-powered battery
    161 Views

    A Florida utility has unveiled what it says is the world’s largest solar-powered battery storage system, Kallanish reports.

    The announcement came from Florida Power & Light in a night-time ceremony with lights and drones powered by the battery earlier this week at the Manatee Solar Energy Center in Florida’s Manatee County.

    The $300 million battery has a 409-megawatt capacity and can deliver 900 megawatt-hours of energy, the equivalent of 100m iPhone batteries or enough energy to power about 329,000 homes for more than two hours, says the company, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy. That is also enough energy to power Disney World for seven hours, it says. The project will help increase the predictability of solar, the company says.

    The project includes 132 battery containers on 40 acres, equivalent to 30 football fields. It sits next to the existing 74.5 MW Manatee solar facility. Electricity will be stored in the batteries when the sun is shining and power is cheaper due to low demand. That power will be added to the grid when demand peaks and power is more expensive. It will reduce the runtime of local fossil-fueled power plants, reduce carbon emissions and help the company to retire two aging natural gas-fired peaking power plants that together produce 1.638 gigawatts of power.

    The company had previously said the battery project would save its customers about $100m over its lifetime by offsetting fuel costs.

    “This battery is another example of how FPL has become a leader in clean energy and sustainability without sacrificing affordability or reliability,” says president and ceo Eric Silagy in a statement.

    Construction started last February on the battery system in Parrish, Florida.

    The utility with 11m customers in Florida says it has installed 13m solar panels and is 45% of the way to reaching its goal of installing 30m solar panels across the state by 2030. It operates 42 solar facilities with eight more expected to come online in early 2022. The company is adding other smaller battery projects in the state.

    Sembcorp to Build Battery Storage System in UK

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    22 Dec, 2021, 5:35 am

    Sembcorp Industries wholly-owned subsidiary Sembcorp Energy UK plans to build Europe’s largest battery energy storage system to help the UK achieve its Net Zero target. As part of Sembcorp Energy UK’s growing battery storage portfolio, SEUK intends to construct a 360MW battery at its site at Wilton International on Teesside. Following COP26 discussions, this development signals a major step by SEUK that will further support the UK’s Net Zero targets, helping to ensure the resilience of the electricity network and further enable the increasing growth of renewables.

    At the Wilton International site, SEUK has available land and connections ready to enable swift instalment of the batteries, which will be built in tranches.

    SEUK currently operates 70MW of batteries, with a further 50MW already in the pipeline and due to be operational in early 2022. As one of the UK’s largest battery portfolios, the units can supply power and other services to the national grid in a matter of milliseconds, and such rapid response time is crucial to maintaining a secure and stable energy system that will aid the UK’s low-carbon transition.

    The plans for both this battery portfolio expansion, and the first-of-a-kind 300MW net zero emissions plant – Whitetail Clean Energy – announced in July 2021, align SEUK’s growth with technologies that support a greener future. Should all these developments proceed, SEUK’s total energy portfolio would be expected to total over 1.6GW, with almost half a gigawatt being supplied by batteries.

    Canada: Polestar Developing Its Own EV Batteries, Motors, Architecture
    POLESTAR DEVELOPING ITS OWN EV BATTERIES, MOTORS, ARCHITECTURE

    Polestar isn't messing around. The company didn't exist in its current form a few years ago, and plans to go from zero sales in 2018 to 290,000 annual sales by 2025, with a break-even point by 2023 and profitability by 2025. Here's how. Gregor Hembrough, head of Polestar Americas, told Green Car Reports earlier this month at a Polestar 1 drive that the future of Polestar really has nothing to do with, nor does it look like, the Polestar of today. "There's no reason the Polestar 2 and Polestar 3 will be talked about in the same sentence," Hembrough said.

    Polestar's goal is exponential growth with the introduction of the Polestar 3, Polestar 4, and Polestar 5. The automaker's target is the Porsche Cayenne with the Polestar 3, which it has already said will be a performance-focused EV. The Polestar 4 is aiming for the Porsche Macan. And the Polestar 5 will be putting a bullseye on the Porsche Panamera and Taycan. Specifically, Hembrough said, "Polestar wants to be a Porsche competitor, in design, performance, and innovation." To that end, Polestar's developing its own electric motors in-house in Sweden. Codenamed P10, the new electric motor will be about 1.5 times more powerful than those in the Porsche Taycan, with the target being 475 kw (a little over 600 hp). The motors will be compact at 36 by 50 by 64 cm) and connect to a 2-speed gearbox and the ability to disconnect for efficiency gains. It was noted by Hembrough that Polestar's new motors would not be shared with Volvo or Lotus, both of which are partners and sit within the parent company, Geely, automotive group. Polestar's UK team is currently developing a new in-house designed battery pack with Volvo and Lotus (the latter two will have access to the pack) with a new 800-volt electrical architecture. The new design will incorporate simplified compatibility with 400V fast-charging as well.

    Hembrough was tight lipped on battery cell type, supplier information, and peak charge rate, but he noted at 103 kwh the pack would charge to 80% in 20 minutes or less. Bi-directional capability and V2X charging scenarios are also baked into the component set, at a rate of up to 20 kw.

    All these components will sit within a new aluminum space frame architecture Polestar's developing as a clean-sheet platform for the Polestar 5. Volvo and Lotus will not have access to the new platform, according to Hembrough, though the executive noted Lotus will likely help with certain synergies such as suspension tuning. The Polestar 3, which will go into production in a year with deliveries taking place in Q1 of 2023, will ride on Volvo's SPA2 platform, Hembrough said. This will be the same platform underpinning the Volvo XC90 successor, though it's yet to be seen if any of these new components make their way into the Polestar 3.

    Hembrough said Polestar will begin taking orders by the middle of 2022 for the Polestar 3, with the Polestar 3 to follow in 2023 and Polestar 5 in 2024.

    RWE Build EV Battery based Eenergy Storage at Audi Herdecke

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    03 Jan, 2022, 5:30 am

    A joint energy transition project between RWE and Audi is breaking new ground. In Herdecke in North Rhine Westphalia in Germany, RWE has put an energy storage system consisting of used lithium-ion batteries from Audi EVs into operation. Using 60 such battery systems, this novel storage technology will be able to provide temporary storage for about 4.5 megawatt hours of electricity at the site of the RWE pumped-storage power plant at the Hengsteysee reservoir. The decommissioned batteries supplied for the project come from Audi e-tron development vehicles. At the end of their first life in the cars, they still have a residual capacity of more than 80 percent. That means these second-life batteries are ideally suited for use in stationary electricity storage systems. Depending on how they are used, the batteries could still have a remaining service life of one to ten years. And they’re much cheaper than new cells. That’s where second life comes in: The carbon emissions generated when the batteries were produced are spread sustainably across two service lives, one in the car and one in the storage system.

    For the 60 batteries, each weighing about 700 kilograms, RWE has built a 160 square meter hall using lightweight construction methods at its pumped storage power plant location in Herdecke. Work on installing the battery systems inside the building began in October, and the process of commissioning the individual components kicked off in November. RWE expects to begin marketing the storage capacity of its second-life battery storage system from the beginning of 2022, initially to help maintain the frequency in the electricity grid. The plan is then to test other marketing methods on a flexible basis.

    RWE intends to draw on the insights gained from the reference storage system in Herdecke to build and operate larger storage systems based on EV batteries in the future. This will involve an innovative system in which pairs of modules are connected in series, thus boosting the operating voltage and reducing costs.

    The second-life battery storage system in Herdecke is one of ten battery projects RWE is implementing in the US, Germany and Ireland. In parallel, the company is working on innovative projects such as redox flow batteries or battery storage systems with a virtual connection to hydropower stations. By 2030, the company will have increased its battery storage capacity from the current level of 600 megawatts to 3 gigawatts.
