Scientists looking into how to store wind power energy

Engineers and sceintists are looking into new and innovative ways to store the produced by wind power over in Ireland. This looks to be a promising area for research. Instead of letting the slip away or only be used for current demand (no pun intended) situations they may be able to find a solution that stores large quantities of the power for on demand usage by utility customers.

Here is a quote from the news article:

“A new study is under way to ascertain and quantify the potential economic benefits of coupling vanadium redox batteries with wind farms in Ireland.

Ireland (SEI) and Tapbury Management are funding the study, which will be carried out in collaboration with VRB Power Systems. VRB is a Canadian electrochemical company that patented and brought to market the Vanadium Redox Battery System.”
