Case Study
In this study we examine the impact of integrating a fleet of Enoda PRIME® Exchangers (“Prime Exchangers”) coordinated by Enoda ENSEMBLE™ into the Texas grid through the Business As Usual (“BAU”) case.
BAU operation of around 25,000 400kVA Prime Exchangers can allow for reduction of up to 3,855.8 tonnes of CO2 in the Regulation-Up market (“RegUp”) on June 21st, 2023. This fleet of 25,000 devices would have been sufficient on this day to completely saturate the regulation up market.
Such a fleet would have reduced carbon emissions of just one of the frequency and ancillary services, RegUp, by 54%, and would also enable Texans to benefit from Enoda’s ability to provide these services at lowest marginal cost.
The challenges on our energy security with the expansion of renewables and its implications for battery supply chain
As renewable energy targets are brought forward to lessen dependence on Putin’s pipelines, consideration must also be made for holes in our domestic energy security, and how we can design a system that maintains stability and energy security while still delivering energy that is affordable and green. Increasingly batteries are being used not only for EVs, but to stabilise the grid itself.
