Typical mid-size to large active military installations’ peak electric loads range from 10 to 90 MW, and their critical electric loads range from approximately 15% to 35% of the total electric load. Figure 6 illustrates conditions seen on seven different mid-size to large military installations. Figure 6.
It yields an NPV that is more than $20 million higher than the electric-energy-only case. This allows the optimized system to use a larger solar PV and does not compromise the electric energy resiliency. This study assessed the potential value for military installations of a future commercial version of Antora Energy’s LDES battery.
This may be a valuable opportunity in the future, and the costs and benefits should be considered as the markets mature. Dependence on large quantities of diesel fuel represents an important vulnerability for military installations. Many installations do not have the volume of diesel stored on base to meet a 14-day outage.
Stationary energy storage provides many value streams. It can be deployed in front of the meter in support of the grid or behind the meter to provide direct value for a customer. Both locations can contribute significantly to energy resiliency.
