SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING EFFICIENCY AND POWER OUTPUT FROM A VANADIUM REDOX BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM

摘要

An energy storage system includes a vanadium redox battery that interfaces with a control system to optimize performance and efficiency. The control system calculates optimal pump speeds, electrolyte temperature ranges, and charge and discharge rates. The control system instructs the vanadium redox battery to operate in accordance with the prescribed parameters. The control system further calculates optimal temperature ranges and charge and discharge rates for the vanadium redox battery.
