The rapid deployment of variable renewable electricity in the UK will make it more challenging to balance the supply and demand of energy. Over the last five years, the potential for energy storage to meet this challenge has been recognised by industry and policy makers. Other global drivers of energy system change show the wider opportunity: providing remote communities with access to power, increasing urbanisation, and ageing infrastructure. The characteristics of energy storage can range from meeting the needs of individuals and households, to local/city distribution networks, to those of the high-voltage transmission grid. But advances, in energy storage devices themselves and their integration into systems, are needed to meet the required performance and cost levels. With a strong research and industry base, the UK can be at the forefront of innovation in energy storage, capturing value in the global market. To these ends, the Government invested £30m in energy storage facilities under the 'Eight Great Technologies' call, providing state-of-the-art equipment in five university consortia for the development and testing of technologies that span application areas. However, whilst funding was made available for capital expenditure, no dedicated funding for undertaking research was attached. We propose a truly interdisciplinary programme building on this investment to tackle some key challenges facing the energy storage community. We have designed a programme which will draw on the collective expertise and facilities that exist in the consortia to tackle research questions that span the storage technologies being developed, and to maximise the impact of the test-bed demonstrators. Our approach is to address a set of research questions that apply across the technologies supported by the capital investment. We will consider the key challenges, across length scales, from materials to devices, to systems, specifically addressing:- How the materials used in energy storage technologies, including batteries and thermal energy- How processes are modelled in the technologies, and validating the models with experiments- How energy storage devices can be integrated into the energy system most effectively- How data from operational runs of pilot plants can improve our understanding of the role of energy storageThis project can be the catalyst which leads to improved understanding of physical processes, accelerated technology development, and shared learning from the operation of energy storage technologies. The research will also drive further collaboration between institutions, build the national research and innovation community, increase recognition of the UK's role, and maximise the impact from these facilities in the international energy landscape.The consortia demonstrated excellence in research capability as part of their original capital grant bids. This project draws on this expertise directly with the involvement of senior investigators who have internationally leading reputations. We will also benefit from the additional support of technology users from across the energy sector, as well as the links through the individual consortia Advisory Boards.

可变可再生电力在英国的快速部署将使平衡能源供需更具挑战性。在过去的五年里，储能技术应对这一挑战的潜力已经得到了行业和政策制定者的认可。能源系统变革的其他全球驱动因素显示了更广泛的机会：为偏远社区提供电力，提高城市化程度和老化的基础设施。储能的特点可以从满足个人和家庭的需求，到地方/城市配电网，再到高压输电网。但是，需要在储能设备本身及其与系统的集成方面取得进展，以满足所需的性能和成本水平。凭借强大的研究和工业基础，英国可以走在储能创新的最前沿，在全球市场上获得价值。为此，政府在“八大技术”的号召下投资3000万英镑用于储能设施，为五个大学联盟提供最先进的设备，用于开发和测试跨应用领域的技术。然而，虽然当局已为非经常开支提供拨款，但并无为进行研究提供专项拨款。我们提出了一个真正的跨学科计划，以解决能源存储社区面临的一些关键挑战。我们设计了一个计划，该计划将利用财团中存在的集体专业知识和设施来解决跨越正在开发的存储技术的研究问题，并最大限度地发挥试验台演示器的影响。我们的方法是解决一系列研究问题，这些问题适用于资本投资支持的技术。我们将考虑从材料到设备再到系统的各个长度范围内的关键挑战，具体解决：- 如何在储能技术中使用材料，包括电池和热能-如何在技术中模拟过程，并通过实验验证模型-如何将储能设备最有效地集成到能源系统中-如何从试点工厂的运行数据可以提高我们对储能作用的理解这个项目可以成为催化剂，从而提高对物理过程的理解，加速技术开发，并分享从能源储存技术的运作中学习的经验。该研究还将推动机构之间的进一步合作，建立国家研究和创新社区，提高对英国作用的认可，并最大限度地发挥这些设施在国际能源格局中的影响。这些财团在最初的资本赠款投标中展示了卓越的研究能力。该项目直接利用这一专门知识，并有国际知名的高级调查员参与。我们还将受益于来自整个能源部门的技术用户的额外支持，以及通过各个财团咨询委员会建立的联系。
