NYISO Spotlights Energy Storage of battery

Published by admin under battery tips

The New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) has issued Energy Storage in the New York Electricity Markets, a white paper that reviews the contributions and possible benefits of energy storage systems to the operation of the bulk power system.

“Energy storage can play a valuable role in the continued development of New York’s renewable power resources. For example, the variable nature of wind generation poses special challenges to grid operators, such as the NYISO, that must constantly balance the supply of and demand for electricity on the grid. Flywheels, batteries PA3399U-1BAS , PA3399U-1BRS , PA3399U-2BAS and other energy storage systems expand our ability to address those needs,” said Stephen G. Whitley, NYISO president and CEO.

Over the years, New York State has been a leader in electric energy storage with the development of major hydropower pumped storage facilities. The New York Power Authority (NYPA) Blenheim-Gilboa facility is the fifth largest pumped storage project in the nation. The 1,100-megawatt project began providing power in 1973, with a major revitalization and upgrade scheduled to be completed in 2010. New York State’s other major pumped storage facility is the Lewiston Pump-Generating Plant, which is part of NYPA’s Niagara Power Project, built in the early 1960s.

Today, various companies are planning to develop grid-scale energy storage facilities in New York based on flywheel and battery Studio 1535 battery , Studio 1536 battery , Studio 1537 battery technology. Beacon Power is constructing a 20-megawatt flywheel energy storage facility in Stephentown. AES Energy Storage has proposed three 20-megawatt battery storage facilities in Broome, Onondaga and Niagara counties.

In 2009, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved changes developed by the NYISO to allow limited energy storage resources (LESR)—which includes battery and flywheel technologies—to provide the “regulation” service needed to balance electrical supply and demand on the grid.

Regulation service is now provided by power plants that increase or decrease output in response to system needs. LESRs can instantaneously switch from being a load to a generator,  XPS M1210 battery , XPS M140 battery , XPS M1730 battery thus providing regulation service similar to that of a conventional power plant.

“These energy storage resources are ideal for responding to the moment-to-moment adjustments needed to operate the bulk electricity grid,” Whitley noted.

Demand for electricity fluctuates throughout the day and the power to serve the demand must be generated and transported instantaneously. By expanding the resources available to provide regulation service, market competition may positively influence the cost of providing this component of electric service.

JAC “batteries lease”

Published by admin under battery tips

March 27, JAC Motor Company vice president, president of the Institute Yangang JAC Industry Forum in China – Automotive Industry Sub-Forum revealed that this year will be in the Hefei Jianghuai test run 500 ~ 1000 electric vehicles, and laptop battery lease enter the market.

Yan Gang introduction, JAC adhere to the “two low-one would be” the principle of promoting the new energy automotive industry, that consumers buy a new car price of energy than traditional energy sources are not cars, the use of new energy vehicles less expensive than traditional energy vehicles the user when the use of new energy vehicles have to be convenient.

“If not meet these three points, new energy vehicles is very difficult to achieve large-scale commercialization.” He said. “To achieve the purchase price no higher than conventional vehicles, PA3399U-1BRS , PA3399U-2BAS   that is, when the vehicle I sell do not sell batteries, we have removed the battery can do better than the traditional car prices high price. The use of low cost, is to ensure that within a certain mileage of the cost to replace the battery cheaper than fuel. When the vehicle battery will soon run out of time, the customer drove the car to the charging station to replace the other one battery and a battery prior to the closing the actual power usage. user-friendly is the future of pure electric vehicle customers merely need to replace batteries, without the need for its own charging the equivalent of us to a gas station, and replace the battery time must be shorter than the refueling time. ”

At present, BYD, represented by most of the domestic car prices on the research and development of pure electric vehicles, the main route to the main plug-in charging mode. In 2009, China Association of Automobile Manufacturers in the lead, FAW, SAIC, Dongfeng, Chang’an, Guangzhou Automobile, Beijing Automotive, Heavy Truck, Brilliance, Satellite M105 , Satellite M110 Chery, JAC and other domestic top ten automobile companies jointly established the “electric vehicle Industry Alliance “, and signed a” joint development of electric vehicles, the Platform for Action, “to carry out joint development of electric vehicles, the standard preparation, the main research plug-in electric car business standards and models. Plug-in charge of business model is to charge customers will be parked in piles or charging stations, 2 ~ 8 hours before the full power to continue driving.

However, the power battery has been a bottleneck in the development of pure electric vehicles, there is not a cost-effective battery-electric vehicles can meet the performance and cost of industrial needs. And this method must rely on a sound charging stations and other facilities, but also a strong support network.

Jianghuai advocated “battery lease” approach to vehicle and battery sold separately, is another way. It is learned that Jianghuai Group’s Ankai on the use of this model achieved a small range of pure electric buses commercial sales, Nissan is also in Japan to promote this pattern.

Needless to say, the battery lease without increasing the cost of the user’s purchase and use. Its far-reaching significance lies in car prices can be achieved on the battery recycling and reuse of links, so that the development cycle. But who should pay for the battery leasing, toshiba battery  charging, the battery maintenance duty, once this model to be popular, totally dependent on automobile manufacturers is clearly unrealistic. Which model is more suitable for China’s national conditions, which model is a better solution, not yet known.

Waste batteries as scrap

Published by admin under battery tips

28, reporters found that, at present on the recycling of waste electric cars were very irregular, the majority of flows to salvage station.
An informed source revealed that some merchants sold the recovered waste recycling, and some sold to the electric car manufacturers, but also individuals at very low cost recycling of used batteries VGP-BPS13 , VGP-BPS8A , VGP-BPS9 , turn to the old charge a new. This reporter learned that about 70% of electric vehicle batteries are lead-acid batteries, 30% nickel-cadmium batteries, a very short life, but an electric vehicle batteries the harm caused by many times larger than ordinary batteries.

Weifang Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, said a staff member, the state had issued in 2003, provides that: electric car manufacturers and dealers must bear responsibility for recycling of waste batteries. However, because no clear and concrete from which a functional management, so a lot of electric car manufacturers, merchants sell only targeted regardless of income, salvage station has become the ultimate buyers of used batteries Inspiron 1520 battery , Inspiron 1525 battery ,  Latitude D830 battery.

Panasonic re-launches its battery range of voltage

Published by admin under battery tips

New pack designs and improved power makes Panasonic batteries the smart choice for retailers and their customers

Panasonic Energy is re-launching its battery range in April 2010, with a major refresh designed to make it easier for shoppers to choose the right laptop battery for their needs.
These latest innovations have been made in response to Panasonic conducting three large-scale, European-wide studies, observing over 8,000 shoppers making battery purchasing decisions, to understand how retailers and consumers approach the battery category.

“The survey took an in-depth look at the choices shoppers have to make when purchasing batteries,” comments Tim Clark, Sales Manager UK and Ireland for Panasonic Energy.

“By making real-life purchasing decisions measureable on a large scale, we understood how we could better support retailers.

“Our focus for this year is on guidance and education for retailers, including re-launching our battery range, providing category management advice, POS and new in-store display sloutions.”

Different appliances require different types of TD347 battery. To further highlight the differences between the four levels of product in the battery range, Panasonic is renaming the current Essential Power and Xtreme Power products. In the new line-up, Essential Power becomes Standard Power and Xtreme Power becomes Pro Power.

With the new names also comes an increase in power. Standard Power and Pro Power now last up to 10% longer thanks to several technical innovations, including adding more electrolyte, vacuum absorption technology giving greater distribution of the electrolyte, an improved ratio of active materials and a superior separator between the anode and cathode.

The colours and design scheme for the alkaline products have also been up-graded, with Alkaline Power now featuring a bright yellow background, a brighter blister on the silver, Standard Power packaging, and an intensified red and gold design for Pro Power.

To further differentiate between the levels of power in each product  Tecra A4 , Tecra A5 , Tecra A6 , Panasonic has included a medal in the top right-hand corner of each blister pack, showing bronze for Alkaline Power, silver for Standard Power, gold for Pro Power and platinum for top of the range EVOiA.

Three on-pack appliance icons are also used on all alkaline battery packs in all sizes, including the EVOiA range, to help consumers select the correct batteries for the end-use.

“Buying batteries can be confusing for shoppers, as many people don’t realise that different appliances have different energy requirements,” continues Clark. “Panasonic has a range of batteries to cater for all needs.

“The new names, colours and designs in the re-launched product range, together with the strong performance claim, help consumers make the smart choice when it comes to buying the batteries A1175 , PC764 they really need.

“By simplifying the shoppers’ purchasing decision, and reducing the missed sales opportunities caused by confusion at the battery fixture, these innovations will also result in greater profit for the retailer.”

Panasonic’s re-launched range of alkaline batteries are also less harmful to the environment. The improved production process uses solvent-free sealing of the battery instead of glues which contain solvents, and the can coating is now water-based instead of solvent-based.

To highlight Panasonic’s commitment to environmental responsibility, the Green Apple logo will be featured on all AA, AAA, C- and D-size alkaline batteries in the Pro Power, Standard Power and Alkaline Power products.

The Guinness World Records logo will be retained on EVOiA packs underlining the fact that EVOiA is proven to be the world’s longest lasting AA alkaline battery.

Nano-scale Ultra Capacitors Challenge the Lithium-Ion Battery

Published by admin under battery tips

Does your laptop battery die out right before you hit send on that important email? With scientists at MIT, Intel and other facilities researching microstructures (i.e. micro- or nano-scale pieces of computing hardware) it may be only a matter of time before nano-scale ultra-powerful capacitors challenge lithium-ion batteries Inspiron 1520 battery , Inspiron 1521 battery .

Intel researchers have been working on “ultracapacitors with a greater energy density than today’s lithium batteries,” according to EE Times. Intel is looking into producing these nano-scale ultracapacitors in high-volume manufacturing, meaning that if successful, they may be potentially capable of powering gadgets like smartphones and laptops.

Typically capacitors are used for short-term electrical storage (for example, on a solar powered calculator, a capacitor will collect and store electricity in case you go somewhere without light for a short period of time; depending on the storage capacity of the capacitors in the calculator this will typically be for a few minutes); however ultracapacitors are essentially the higher end models, capable of holding energy for longer periods of time thus competing with batteries Latitude D830 battery , Inspiron E1505 battery , Inspiron XPS M170 battery .

Capacitors are often lighter-weight than batteries and maintain a longer overall physical lifespan. For example, capacitors seen on printed circuit boards (PCB) may last a lifetime. However, they typically do not maintain a charge for very long and this is why batteries are used to power most gadgets. But with ultracapacitors, this may change.

MIT’s Laboratory for Manufacturing and Productivity is working on a multitude of micro- and nano- scale manufacturing techniques. For example, researchers at the Precision Compliant Systems (PCSL) Laboratory at MIT are looking into multi-axis nanopositioning systems.

The PCSL describes nanopostitioners as “electromechanical systems…that position and orient components with [nanometer]-level accuracy.” While not directly related to the manufacture of nano-scale ultracapacitors, this technology may be able to include Intel’s nano-scale ultracapacitors on smaller-scale circuit boards, U4873 , D5318 , making your electronics smaller.

Nobody knows for sure what the full potential of these nano-scale ultracapacitors are–maybe they’ll drastically increase the lifespan of your laptop or smartphone–but the future sure looks bright.

On Your Side of battery

Published by admin under battery tips

I purchased G Data Internet Security 2010 from Ultimate Internet Security’s Website. When I attempted to download the program, I discovered that the process would take about 11 hours over my dial-up connection. I called Ultimate Internet Security to ask if they could burn the software onto a disc and then mail it to me. They agreed. When nothing arrived after a few weeks, I called a second time and was again assured that the company would send me a disc. Five weeks later, and I still haven’t received the disc. Is there anything you can do?

Dave Kotrch, Gowen, Michigan

OYS responds: After we contacted Ultimate Internet Security, a company representative told us that at the time Kotrch placed his order, the G Data software was available only via download. When a colleague told the rep that Kotrch had requested a refund, the rep assumed that Kotrch hadn’t received the disc and no longer wanted the product; Studio 1535 battery , Studio 1536 battery , Studio 1537 battery the rep therefore took no further action. Meanwhile, Kotrch was left hanging.

Once we got involved, the representative sent a boxed version of G Data Internet Security 2010 to Kotrch, who says that he’s pleased with the program.

If a product you’re waiting for fails to arrive, we recommend that you be persistent in your attempts to contact the vendor. Ask the rep for an estimated delivery date, and say that you will follow up if the product hasn’t arrived by then.

The Missing Link
Steven B. Bunnell of Norwood, North Carolina, bought PowerDVD 7.0 Standard video-playback software from CyberLink’s online store and enjoyed using it. After replacing his laptop’s motherboard, he reinstalled Windows Vista and asked CyberLink to send him a link that would enable him to download PowerDVD again. The company did so. Later, he had problems with Vista and installed XP on his computer. He then asked CyberLink several times for another link to PowerDVD, but the company’s replies contained only installation instructions. Frustrated, Bunnell asked us for help.

After we contacted CyberLink, a customer support representative provided Bunnell with a link and instructions for downloading PowerDVD.

You never know when disaster will strike. As with your other important data, make a backup of programs you download. Taking this precaution will save you the hassle and potential cost of getting a replacement should you need one.

Rechargeable-Battery Recall
AMX, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, has recalled about 8600 rechargeable batteries sold with MVP 5000 series wireless touch panels (model numbers MVP-5100, MVP-5150, and MVP-5200i; you can find the number on the back of the unit). A defect in the Studio 1737 battery , Vostro 1000 battery  can cause the battery pack to overheat and rupture, posing a fire and burn hazard.

Though no incidents or injuries have been reported, consumers should immediately stop using the touch panels and contact AMX to receive a free replacement battery. For more information, call AMX at 800/222-0193, visit the AMX Website, or e-mail the firm at www.new-laptop-battery.com and include the reference code XPX5000B.

Pre-orders for the Apple iPad

Published by admin under battery tips

Pre-orders for the Apple iPad have gotten off to a pretty good start. According to sources, Apple was able to take over 51,000 pre-orders in the first two hours of accepting pre-orders. The more impressive number is the 150,000+ iPads that have already been pre-orders since they started taking pre-orders. The initial pre-orders are expected to arrive at Apple stores for an April 3rd pickup. Some analysts are predicting that Apple could rake in over 500,000+ pre-orders before launch and they should be able to easily sell one million units by the second week of release.

While our sources insist that that pre-orders are split among the different configurations, it would appear that most buyers are tending to lean toward the high-end or low-end flash memory configuration. Accessories for the iPad could be in short supply on release day. From the whispers that we are hearing, it is quite possible that retail stores will sell out of iPad accessories on launch day, as well.

As we told you in a story yesterday, Apple has announced a $99 battery exchange program for users having battery problems. We are hearing, however, that Apple is expecting the exchange to take a week and don’t even bother to attempt an exchange if your iPad is damaged or has been modified in any way. And don’t forget that you will need to sync your iPad with iTunes before sending it off, as that will be the only way to get your data on to your new iPad when it arrives.
