US Navy Photo SAN DIEGO – The Department of Defense last month issued a small contract for a Navy project to develop and provide a modular energy storage system for its newest vessels including its all-electric DDG-1000 class of surface combatants.
“The Navy approached us about replacing one of the weapons systems on the DDG-1000 with large-scale energy storage. That’s an electric ship. So we said, yeah, we think we could do that,” Higier said, noting “it was the fastest solicitation-to-award in my portfolio,” with the contract awarded in just over a month.
A similar but smaller project, an $8 million long-duration energy storage system, is planned at Naval Base San Diego, Rosen added. Another Navy Region Southwest partnership with DIU and the California Energy Commission is installing electric vehicle chargers.
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.
This report provides a quantitative techno-economic analysis of a long-duration energy storage (LDES) technology, when coupled to on-base solar photovoltaics (PV), to meet the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) 14-day requirement to sustain critical electric loads during a power outage and significantly reduce an installation’s carbon footprint.
Despite these improvements, military-grade generators cannot fully capture the energy produced nor can they efficiently regulate output to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production.
