IMPROVING ELECTROCHEMICAL CAPACITOR PERFORMANCE THROUGH STUDIES OF MANGANESE OXIDE HYDRATION AND REDUCED GRAPHENE OXIDE SELF-DISCHARGE
Electrochemical capacitors (ECs) store energy in a double layer of charge at an electrode/electrolyte interface and/or through rapid redox reactions. The first project discussed herein is a comprehensive study of the effect ... -
Regenerative Air Energy Storage for Renewable Energy Integration: System Modeling and Optimization
(2014-04-04)As energy systems shift away from fossil-fuel based electricity, the non-dispatchability of renewable energy converters (REC) continue to stress the grid infrastructure and conventional thermal generating units. These ... -
Repurposing Electric Vehicle Batteries in a Mixed Array for Grid Storage
In the face of the global transition away from fossil fuels, the electricity grid faces many challenges. The growth of renewable energy requires investment in new methods of matching supply and demand with intermittent ... -
The Role of Charge Redistribution in the Self-discharge of Electrochemical Capacitor Electrodes
(2011-01-13)This work examines the role of charge redistribution in the self-discharge of electrochemical capacitor electrodes. Electrochemical capacitors are charge storage devices which have high power capability and a long cycle ... -
Wind Allocation Methods for Improving Energy Security in Residential Space and Hot Water Heating
(2012-08-30)Worldwide, wind energy added to the energy mix of electricity suppliers may be seen as way of improving energy security and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, due to wind's variability wind electricity cannot be ...
