本月早些時(shí)候，由馬薩諸塞州海岸的Ørsted和Eversource聯(lián)合開發(fā)的800兆瓦海灣國(guó)家風(fēng)能(Bay State Wind)海上項(xiàng)目宣布了一項(xiàng)交易，該交易將與當(dāng)?shù)氐腘EC能源解決方案合作開發(fā)海上風(fēng)電場(chǎng)的能源存儲(chǔ)解決方案。

全球領(lǐng)先的海上風(fēng)電公司之一Ørsted和新英格蘭首屈一指的變速箱制造商Eversource于3月16日宣布，他們的Bay State Wind合作伙伴已簽署了一份意向書，與位于馬薩諸塞州的NEC能源解決方案公司合作開發(fā)，以便開發(fā)這是800MW（兆瓦）海灣國(guó)家風(fēng)能的儲(chǔ)能解決方案。具體而言，他們希望將利用海上風(fēng)力發(fā)電場(chǎng)與55兆瓦/ 110兆瓦小時(shí)（MWh）的儲(chǔ)能選項(xiàng)結(jié)合起來，完成后將形成世界上最大的用于商業(yè)規(guī)模能源的風(fēng)能+儲(chǔ)能系統(tǒng)。

Bay State Wind于2016年12月首次提出。當(dāng)時(shí)，它是一個(gè)最終目標(biāo)為2吉瓦（GW）的海上風(fēng)電場(chǎng)，但似乎將分階段開發(fā)，從800兆瓦開始。位于馬薩諸塞州瑪莎葡萄園島以南15至25英里處，最終的2吉瓦預(yù)計(jì)將能夠?yàn)?00萬個(gè)家庭提供足夠的清潔電力。

本月早些時(shí)候簽署的新協(xié)議不僅使Bay State Wind項(xiàng)目可能成為世界第一的項(xiàng)目，而且還支持和推動(dòng)馬薩諸塞州的能源存儲(chǔ)市場(chǎng)。

“我們很高興能與馬薩諸塞州的一家公司合作，這家公司是電池存儲(chǔ)技術(shù)和產(chǎn)品的全球領(lǐng)先企業(yè)，”Ørsted北美總裁ThomasBrostrøm說。

“NEC能源解決方案被公認(rèn)為公用事業(yè)規(guī)模能源存儲(chǔ)市場(chǎng)的先驅(qū)和領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者，他們從當(dāng)?shù)貑T工招募人才的能力不僅有助于Bay State Wind，而且有助于鞏固馬薩諸塞州作為全球領(lǐng)先企業(yè)在綠色能源革命中。“

“開發(fā)強(qiáng)大的電池存儲(chǔ)系統(tǒng)將幫助馬薩諸塞州成為可再生能源領(lǐng)域的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者，更重要的是，它將通過確保穩(wěn)定的能源供應(yīng)來幫助小型企業(yè)和消費(fèi)者，從而減少高需求的能源高峰”，Eversource補(bǔ)充說道。業(yè)務(wù)發(fā)展副總裁MikeAuseré。

這三家公司之間的合作不僅將為Bay State Wind帶來能源存儲(chǔ)解決方案，而且還將尋求加快能源存儲(chǔ)技術(shù)早期商業(yè)整合到電力供應(yīng)鏈的發(fā)展，并充分利用潛在的固有潛力在能源存儲(chǔ)技術(shù)中有利于清潔能源轉(zhuǎn)型，增加電網(wǎng)可靠性，提升全系統(tǒng)效率和減緩系統(tǒng)高峰需求。

“海灣風(fēng)能帶來業(yè)內(nèi)首屈一指的領(lǐng)先優(yōu)勢(shì)，”NEC能源解決方案首席執(zhí)行官Steve Fludder表示。 “這一發(fā)展對(duì)于在馬薩諸塞州，美國(guó)和全球范圍內(nèi)增加我們的電池存儲(chǔ)系統(tǒng)至關(guān)重要。海灣國(guó)家風(fēng)電項(xiàng)目是一個(gè)獨(dú)特的機(jī)會(huì)，對(duì)新英格蘭英地區(qū)的好處是巨大的。我們對(duì)能夠一起實(shí)現(xiàn)的目標(biāo)感到興奮。

“800 Megawatt Bay State Wind US Offshore Project Partners To Combine Energy Storage

March 28th, 2018 by Joshua S Hill

Earlier this month, the 800 megawatt Bay State Wind offshore project being developed jointly by Ørsted and Eversource off the coast of Massachusetts announced a deal which will see it work with local NEC Energy Solutions to develop an energy storage solution for the offshore wind farm.

Ørsted, one of the world’s leading offshore wind companies, and Eversource, New England’s premier transmission builder, announced on March 16 that their Bay State Wind partnership had signed a Letter of 1 solution for the 800 megawatt (MW) Bay State Wind. Specifically, they are looking to combine the offshore wind farm with a 55 MW/110 MW-hour (MWh) energy storage option, which upon completion would result in the world’s largest wind-paired energy storage system for commercial-scale energy.

Bay State Wind was first announced back in December of 2016 by then-DONG Energy (now Ørsted) and Eversource. At the time it was proposed, it was a 2 gigawatt (GW) offshore wind farm, which remains the end-goal but appears will be developed in stages, starting with 800 MW. Located 15 to 25 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, the final 2 GW is expected to be able to generate clean electricity enough for a million homes.

The new agreement signed earlier this month serves to not only make the Bay State Wind project a potential world-first but also acts to support and promote Massachusetts’ energy storage market.

?“We could not be more thrilled to work with a Massachusetts company that is a global leader in battery storage technology and products,” said Thomas Brostrøm, President of Ørsted North America. “NEC Energy Solutions is widely recognized as a pioneer and leader in the market for utility-scale energy storage, and their ability to recruit talent from the local workforce will help not only Bay State Wind, but it will help solidify Massachusetts as a global leader in the green energy revolution.”

“The development of a robust battery storage system is going to help Massachusetts become a leader in renewable energy, and more importantly it will help small businesses and consumers by ensuring a steady supply of energy, thereby reducing high-demand energy spikes,” added Eversource Vice President of Business Development Mike Auseré.

The collaboration between the three companies will not only result in an energy storage solution for Bay State Wind, but will also seek to accelerate the development of early commercial integration of energy storage technologies into the electricity supply chain, as well as capitalize on the potential inherent in energy storage technology to benefit the clean energy transition, grid reliability, system-wide efficiency, and system peak demand reduction.

“Bay State Wind brings industry leadership that is second to none,” said Steve Fludder, CEO of NEC Energy Solutions. “This development is crucial to growing our battery storage systems in Massachusetts, across America, and around the world. The Bay State Wind project is a unique opportunity and the benefits to the Commonwealth are immense. We are excited about what we can achieve together.”
