April 11, 2022, 1:47 a.m. Updated 35 {"title": ["", "Zagres Ltd - Study, assessment and proof of market potentials and economics of a new Gallium Nitride inverter technology for domestic energy storage applications"], "description": ["", "\nEnergy storage, both on domestic and industrial levels, is vital in enabling greater penetration\nof renewable electricity generation and development of smart grids, and to reduce the need for\nfossil fuel peaking plants. According to a Technology Innovation Needs Assessment (TINA)\nby the Low Carbon Innovation Group published in Aug 2012, 27.4 GW of grid-connected\nenergy storage is needed to enable UK achieving its carbon reduction targets for 2050.\nRealising this capacity is rather ambitious given today\u2019s installed capacity being less than 3\nGW, mainly dominated by large-scale pumped hydro storage (PHS). There is limited space to\nexpand PHS in the UK, so other options for storage need to be explored. Grid-connected\ndomestic energy storage (GCD ES) can offer an important contribution to realising 2050\ntargets, as much as 10 GW equivalent to two million household installations, predicted by\nTINA.\nThe majority of GCD ES solutions are based on batteries and their associated AC-DC power\nelectronics inverters. Existing battery and inverter technologies are expensive and have low\nefficiency, preventing widespread adoption of GCD ES. Commercially available inverters for\nenergy storage applications are made from Silicon-based Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (Si-\nIGBT) devices, which are costly and have moderate efficiency. The inverter is a major\ncomponent of a GCD ES system and hence, its cost reduction and efficiency improvement\nwill directly affect the system economics and net \u2018cost of energy\u2019.\nZagres, spun out from Cambridge University Engineering Department, has developed a new\ninverter technology based on Gallium Nitride High-Electron-Mobility Transistor (GaN\nHEMT) devices, which promises significant improvements over Si-IGBT based inverters; its\nexploitation can reduce the cost and size of energy storage inverters and increase power\nconversion efficiency, contributing towards achieving more cost-effective energy storage\nsystems.\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Closed"]}
