WASHINGTON — A big drawback of electricity — illustrated by
the power of a lightning bolt—is that once created, it is very difficult to
save for later use.
Lack of good storage methods forces power companies to build costly
oil and gas generating units that can be switched on quickly to meet
daytime demand surges that exceed the capacity of regular coal and
nuclear plants.
The problem occurs in reverse at night when not all the relatively
cheap base-load power can be used.
Charles Clark, a West Coast utility consultant, said wide use of
efficient storage could trim 2 percent from the delivered cost of elec
tricity — an annual saving of $1 billion to $10 billion.
In the case of wind and solar power, said technical director Herb
Blinder of the American Public Power Association, “there aren’t really
any great ways to store that energy if it happens to be operating when
it’s not needed. They could become base-load generation in combina
tion with a storage system.”
The industry is currently investigating advanced batteries that
transform the energy of zinc-chlorine and sodium-sulfur chemical
reactions into electricity. Electrolysis of water to make hydrogen
which can serve as a generating fuel is one more chemical storage
method.
Fleets of electric cars, with batteries recharged by night using
surplus base-load power, are really another kind of storage reservoir
for the future.
Other promising possibilities under investigation include under
ground pumped water systems and compressed air storage.
Underground water systems work on the same principle as normal
pumped water systems but avoid some environmental problems if salt
caverns, rock cavities or aquifers can be found to serve as the lower
reservoir.
Compressed air storage, in which electric pumps squeeze air into
tight underground formations from which it is released to help run fuel
combustion turbines, seems even better.
“It’s a good idea because it’s cheap and it works,” said Dr. James
Birks of the Electric Power Research Institute.
The EPRI utility trade group and the Energy Department are
sponsoring three engineering design studies that could pave the way
for a commercial plant by 1985.
