TWAICE Vision Summit 2024: Availability of grid scale batteries
April 10, 2024
Availability of grid scale batteries
Quentin Scrimshire, founder and CEO of Modo Energy, gave a presentation at the TWAICE Vision Summit 2024 entitled "Availability of grid scale batteries: what does the data show?"
Quentin analyzed the UK and Ercot electricity grids. In 2023 Ercot showed a higher availability rate (97%) than that of the United Kingdom (95%). Increasing this percentage is crucial because, as he pointed out: "an 1% increase in availability has resulted in savings of 2k/MW in UK and ERCOT markets"

Battery Technology
Batteries are highly complex electrochemical systems with different cell formats and chemistries being used. The processes inside the battery also deserve particular attention.
Why do lithium-ion batteries age, and how to slow it down?
Electric vehicle batteries are costly and sensitive parts, and their performance depends on numerous factors like frequency of charge and discharge, the charging system, driving habits, and external temperature. Until now, it was almost impossible for developers or users of batteries to make any reliable analysis or statement about the current state of the device. However, this information can be now delivered by the digital twin created by TWAICE.
