Overview
Snapshot
Echogen is developing a solution called Electrothermal Energy Storage (ETES) —where excess generation and off-peak electricity is converted and stored as heat and is later converted back to electrical power. Echogen has combined its expertise in supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2)-based power cycle technology and components with safe, low-cost, highly-scalable storage media to deliver a superior ETES solution. This system is a modular solution, ideally designed as 25MW and 50MW power blocks, with 6+ hours minimum duration. ETES is a disruptive technology for grid-scale energy storage that can reduce the Levelized Cost of Storage by 40%-50% compared with lithium-ion battery systems. Echogen was recently awarded a $4.45MM grant from the US Department of Energy ARPA-E DAYS Initiative to further develop the cycle and high temperature reservoir alternatives.
