Award Wednesday Announcement! OCED awarded nearly $1M (of the total project federal cost share of up to $10 million) to the Long-Duration Energy Storage Demonstrations (LDES) Program's Second Life Smart Systems (SMART) project, led by Smartville Inc. With the growing supply of retired EV batteries that still hold energy value, and sustained demand for energy storage systems, Smartville’s second-life battery solution was designed to repurpose spent EV batteries and unlock their untapped value. The SMART project aims to demonstrate the viability of repurposed lithium-ion electric vehicle (EV) batteries in LDES systems across a range of use cases, environments, and sizes—from smaller scale (50kW x 10 hour) to larger scale (200kW x 10 hour). Across its several locations, the SMART project plans to improve grid resilience, support EV charging, facilitate clean energy technologies for use in a town renovation project, and offer educational and training opportunities at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

Very enlightening analysis. I see a parallel, mutually reinforcing trend towards residential electrification that is mutually accelerating demand for all solutions. - PV - electric and thermal storage - EV. Buildings become active nodes in a decentrally organised, high RES grid!

"We’ll continue to see a blended approach between electric, hydrogen, and fossil fuel in the equipment space. There are applications where full electric or H2 make complete sense both practically and economically and there are applications where it does not make sense at all." Our energy services manager, John Waterman, shared valuable insights in an interview with Barks Publications, Inc. (Electrical Apparatus Magazine) this month on the challenges and solutions for the long-term adoption of EV trucks. 🌐 Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/e49DbWDk

What are the opportunities for working in electric mobility at DTU Wind and Energy Systems? It is a question that I am trying to answer as part of an upcoming interview. However, before that, I am sharing a short video of myself doing battery degradation measurements to showcase SYSLAB (a state-of-the-art multi-energy system) and finally the EV chargers from ACDC/EV4EU projects. It kind of sums up that your ideas are your limits. Ps: Two papers are in the oven from our lab work. One regarding battery degradation of Renault Zoes and the other one a proof of concept for providing fast frequency services.

Results from one of the first trials of how EV charging responds to incentives (highly effective) and information (not effective) by ENMAX. We need many more of these studies to understand what the future holds including how different demographic groups respond and at what prices can demand be shifted.

I always joke: when you have a good current sensing solution, it often goes unnoticed. Yet when it doesn’t perform as expected - it becomes one of the biggest barriers to maximizing performance and efficiency. Current sensors are truly everywhere and will continue to be. It is a growing space aligning with the verticals of electrification, automation, and renewable energy. When a component is everywhere, it must be simple to understand and easy to use. Check out this video of Henrik, Lauren, and I discussing current sensing trends and what we are doing to simplify current sensing with our portfolio of hall-effect current sensors and shunt-based solutions! https://lnkd.in/gb6t5Pr6

We're kicking off a new effort next week centered on EV Load Forecasting with a webinar. I'll be covering some of what we learned over the last year with the ESIG (Energy Systems Integration Group) Grid Planning for Vehicle Electrification Task Force. Julieta Giraldez will be outlining the new DOE initiative aimed to create an EV Load Forecasting guide. And Paige Jadun will outline some research on quantifying uncertainty in EV charging. Join for the webinar, or just let us know if you want to be involved. https://lnkd.in/e-Tgie5g

1moI am very pleased to see the US DOE making such a creative and innovative award, which will undoubtedly generate multiple benefits in terms of repurposing, reusing, and reimagining the applications of spent EV lithium-ion batteries. My question/comment is: Would the project consider a mix-and-match approach, utilizing varying battery capacities from different auto manufacturers in the battery bank? This could potentially increase the availability of spent EV lithium-ion batteries, maximize the benefits, and significantly reduce our battery recycling costs through such reuse.
