Among energy storage technologies and their significant dif-ferences on installed capacity and time response [7, 8], in the following chapters, three different technologies are investigated in combination with flexible thermal plants: LAES, Batteries, Power to Fuel with a focus on Power to Methanol (PtM).
Energy storage technologies such as Power to Fuel, Liquid Air Energy Storage and Batteries are investigated in conjunction with flexible power plants. The European Union (EU) energy strategy for 2030 and 2050 opts for decreased GreenHouse Gas (GHG) emissions, in-creased energy efficiency and increased share of Renewable Energy Sources (RES).
The integration of a 100kt/a plant requires a mini-mum installed capacity of the thermal power plant equal to 215 MWth (based on dry carbon content of the fuel of 46% and a lower heating value of 19 MJ/kg) in order to be able to capture 90% of the CO2 produced in this plant, when it is operated at 30% thermal load (TL).
The energy system in the EU requires today as well as towards 2030 to 2050 significant amounts of thermal power plants in combination with the continu-ously increasing share of Renewables Energy Sources (RES) to assure the grid stability and to secure electric-ity supply as well as to provide heat.
Energy stor-age in terms of power to power is hereby assessed with two power to power technologies, namely batteries and Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES), which could allow regulation, load following and a range of ramp up time from seconds to mi-nutes.
Power plants including coal, gas, oil, biogas and combined power and heat plants (CHP) have tradi-tionally provided the system flexibility in supply management.
