As the largest institutional consumer of energy in the world, the US Department of Defense (DoD) has a critical role in fulfilling US clean energy and climate commitments. Energy is essential to every aspect of
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.
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.
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.
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.
In addition, the large energy storage expected to be required to meet DoD resiliency goals will result in a BESS that has no need to use most of its SOC while grid tied to yield economic value. A higher minimum SOC will lead to a higher survival probability at 14 days, and a lower SOC minimum will lead to
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.
