Are all energy storage facilities in the Netherlands electro-chemical?

All energy storage facilities in the Netherlands are electro-chemical, with the exception of the contracted 1 MW Hydrostar underwater compressed air energy storage project in Aruba (Caribbean). Hydrostar is a Canadian company specializing in underwater compressed air energy storage technologies.

What is compressed air energy storage (CAES)?

Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is based on storing electricity as compressed air. Compressed air is typically stored underground in suitable geological formations (salt, hard rock and porous rock or aquifer). Aboveground CAES is also a possibility, however investment costs in this case are higher.

What is the Netherlands Advancion energy storage array?

The Netherlands Advancion Energy Storage Array was commissioned in late 2015 and provides 10 MWh of storage to Dutch transmission system operator TenneT. The project, which represents 50% of all Dutch energy storage capacity, provides frequency regulation by using power stored in its batteries to respond to grid imbalances.

How long can a compressed air energy storage system last?

The system can discharge at this power for three and a half days, of 84 hours, which equates to a potential 26,880MWh or 26.88GWh energy storage capacity. Utility Eneco and Corre Energy have signed an agreement for the latter to deploy a 320MW, 84-hour duration compressed air energy storage system (CAES) in Groningen, the Netherlands.

How much energy can a compressed air system generate?

When the energy is needed, the compressed air will be expanded through a turbine which will generate electricity with a maximum power of 320MW. The system can discharge at this power for three and a half days, of 84 hours, which equates to a potential 26,880MWh or 26.88GWh energy storage capacity.

What percentage of Dutch electricity is renewable?

Renewables represent less than 10% of electricity generated. By 2020, renewable energy is to represent 14% of the entire Dutch energy supply, as mandated by the EU in the Renewable Energy Directive (2009/28/EC). This corresponds to an electricity sector with over 30% renewable energy generation.
