Energy Vault获得来自Saudi Aramco Energy Ventures的投资
瑞士卢加诺和沙特阿拉伯达兰–(BUSINESS WIRE)–(美国商业资讯)–Energy Vault打造的可再生能源存储产品正在变革全球公用事业规模级别的储能方法以提升电网恢复力。公司今天宣布获得来自于Saudi Aramco Energy Ventures (SAEV)的新的投资。SAEV是全球综合性能源和化工公司沙特阿美(Aramco, TADAWUL: SAUDI ARAMCO)旗下的战略性技术风投公司。Energy Vault将使用这笔资金加速其技术的全球部署，旨在以经济和可持续的方式，存储吉瓦时规模的间歇性可再生能源发电，以便按需提供可调度的电力。投资金额没有披露。 Energy Vault的突破性技术受抽水蓄能电站启发，依靠重力和水的运动来储放电。公司的解决方案基于这些电站所使用的物理学和机械工程的基本原理，但通过创新运用当地低成本材料和尖端材料科学，用定制的复合材料砌块代替水。这些砌块与Energy Vault专有的系统设计和机器视觉人工智能软件相结合，用于操作特别设计的起重机，这类起重机使用专有技术自动协调砌块的升降，从而在高处储能，然后在砌块下降时放电并发电。重要的是，这些砌块由当地采购的土壤、沙子或废料制成，包括煤炭燃烧残渣等化石燃料产物和风电叶片等报废能源组件。Energy Vault的首个5MW/35MWh商用级系统于2020年7月完成设备安装，同时接入瑞士国家电网。该系统已被世界各地的Energy Vault客户用于直接应用测试和辅助服务协议。…
